Stay Savvy Buying Jewelry
Anyone who has made a jewelry buy can tell you the process can be very difficult. Educating yourself before you make your purchase can make it much less daunting however. A jewelry buyer who’s done their homework will get the best deal.
You should check how a long a store has been around- whether it has just popped up or has a long and established reputation. See if any previous customers have reviewed the store and whether they are satisfied with their purchase. Virtually any established store will have an online presence, including customer reviews.
Do Research
While you do your research, consider alternate options besides jewelry stores. Pawn shops can be fantastic places to find a good deal, as long as you pick the right one. Many shops have an inventory that can rival a jewelry store and often for much less mark up. As before, do your research and also ask about the pawn shop’s return policy. Most reputable shop’s will have a 30 day return policy or similar, which gives you the option of taking your new purchase to an appraiser and ensure you got what you paid for.
Above all, become informed. Jewelry typically symbollizes an event long in the making- a wedding, or an anniversary- so don’t be afraid to take a little time to be sure you make a smart purchase.
