Caring for your branded jewelry items will help you now and in the future. Jewelry and watches are meant to wear and enjoy, but like other luxury items, they need to be maintained. First, place the marketing material in a bag, and store it like your favorite cashmere sweater away from the elements. Next, be mindful that when you bang your hand on the table and hear metal you are doing damage to your ring. You get the point. Maintain and care for your jewelry and watches, and the effort will pay you back.
1. Do go online and explore your reselling options in addition to visiting brick and mortar stores.
2. Do save your original box, paperwork, certificates of authenticity, appraisal, and bags and store them to protect them from damage.
3. Do take clear photos of the item(s) from the top and sides. Also photograph the marketing material mentioned above.
4. Do research what the item currently sells for. (unless discontinued)
5. Do not panic if all you have is the item itself. Good buyers will still step up with an offer.
6. Original condition is key. If it’s used that’s OK. If it’s been abused or poorly repaired, it’s a problem.
7. Do seek an offer from someone who specializes in what you’re selling.
8. A global business will often pay a premium, because they have a bigger market.
