Where should I market my diamong ring so I attain the fairest price for it?
Answers:
I assume I'd do the ebay route. Have it appraised if it's worth more than $1000. Post the appraised merit plus any specifics around the 4 C's that you get--cut, carat, clarity, and color. Including the appraisal will instill a sense of confidence in your bidders. On ebay, you can set the minimum bid so that you don't get totally ripped past its sell-by date. If you dance to a trade in shop, they're not going to bequeath you as much.
By the route, appraised values normally seem to be for a while bit inflated so don't expect to capture nearly what it appraises for. Maybe partly as much or 2/3rds.
