Frequently Asked Questions
What does DCL Jewelry & Loan buy?
We buy diamonds, fine and estate jewelry, luxury watches, designer handbags and accessories, gold, silver, bullion, and rare or collectible coins. If you are unsure whether we handle a particular item, bring it in or send photos and we will tell you before you make the trip.
Do I need an appointment to sell something?
No, walk-ins are welcome during business hours. Booking ahead is recommended for high-value items so we can reserve a private evaluation room.
How long does an evaluation take?
Most evaluations take 20 to 40 minutes. Larger collections or complex pieces can take longer, and we will tell you up front if that applies.
How do you decide what to offer?
Offers are based on current wholesale and secondary-market value, which reflects what the resale market actually pays. That is a different figure from the retail price you originally paid or an insurance replacement appraisal.
Do I have to sell after an evaluation?
No. Evaluations are free and carry no obligation. Many people come in simply to find out what something is worth.
What do I need to bring?
A valid government-issued photo ID is required by California law for any purchase or loan. Any certificates, receipts, service records, or original packaging you have will help support the value.
Do you buy broken or damaged items?
Yes. Damaged jewelry still carries value in its metal content and stones, and many watches are worth buying even when they are not running.
Can I sell part of a collection?
Yes. You are never required to sell everything you bring in, and we will price items individually so you can decide piece by piece.
Will selling affect my credit?
No. Selling an item is a straightforward purchase transaction and nothing is reported to credit bureaus.
Can I borrow against my item instead of selling it?
Yes. We will quote both a purchase price and a loan amount so you can compare, and you can choose whichever suits your situation.
