I highly recommend making an appointment with Marla if you need any help with jewelry appraising. Marla is very professional and personable. She takes time to understand what your concerns are and gives sage advice based on her years of experience. I took my mother-in-law's collection in after she had passed away. Although most items were costume, Marla approached each piece with careful consideration. I came away from my appointment knowledgeable and secure in the appraisal. read more

I needed an appraisal of my wedding ring for insurance purposes. I made an appointment the day before which was great.

Go here. The owner, Marla's fair, honest and knows her stuff. I looked around and her pricing was pretty in line with the going rates, but whats better with her is you don't have to leave your stuff like jewelry stores who take it and send it off. She does it all right there in front of you (I walked in and out wearing my rings) and she was happy to explain and break down the jewelry industry jargon so that I could understand exactly what I do or do not truly own. I rarely will take the time to write reviews, but my experience was so good I wanted to share. read more

My experience with Jewelry Appraisal Professionals was very pleasant. I needed to get a ring appraised that was left to me by a family member. My hope was to obtain a "fair market value" appraisal to potentially sell the ring. This was a very emotional decision for me, so I wanted to make sure I was taking all the proper steps in determining the true value of what I had, and ensure that it was sold into the right hands. I was unsure where to go as with all the information out there, and simply not sure of who to trust. I'm so glad I found Jewelry Appraisal Pro's! The owner was more than helpful and extremely professional. From the moment we met, I knew I was in good hands. The credentials presented by the owner made me feel even more confident about my decision. The proper time and care was taken to carefully evaluate the piece. Everything was explained to me during the entire process of the appraisal. I got to know the true value of the ring and what I could potentially sell it for, fairly. In addition, some very good advice was offered if I were to sell the ring - how to go about it, and who/what to watch out for, precautions etc... Overall I'd highly recommend this vendor to anyone who is looking to obtain appraisal for any reason. Whether to sell, insure or act as an intermediary in the buying process between two parties. Contacting them is truly a SMART decision! read more

I recently purchased an engagement ring for my girlfriend (now fiance) and needed to get the ring appraised for insurance coverage. I went on my local yelp and saw Jewelry Appraisal Professionals and after looking at the reviews gave them a call. I spoke with Marla, who owns the business and found that she was kind and courteous on the phone and explained the process and what items I needed to bring to my appointment. Upon meeting with Marla I found her to be extremely professional and knowledgeable about jewelry and appraising. She has over 25 years experience and her husband has extensive experience in the industry as well. Marla took the time to explain everything that is taken into consideration in the appraisal process. She was delicate with the ring and even cleaned it for me at the completion of the appraisal. She gave me honest feedback on the ring and really made me feel good about my purchase. She gave me a booklet with all the necessary paperwork for the insurance company as well as for my own records. I found her pricing to be very reasonable and below what other appraisers has quoted me for appointments. I even got her husbands business card as well as he is a wholesale and if he is as honest and straightforward as Marla is when I need to purchase more jewelry I will definitely call them first. Would highly recommend Marla and her services to anyone! read more

Marla is a very knowledgeable and professional appraiser. She's also likeable. She will provide a realistic fair value of your item. She will not give you an inflated appraisal like some jewelry stores do. Inflated appraisals only hurt you if you are planning to insure the piece as you will be paying excessive premiums. I highly recommend her. read more

She's extremely knowledgeable and highly professional, and she gives more than 100 percent of herself in examining your jewelry. And....she is pleasant and fun to work with. After telling me what the fair market value of my jewelry was, she then provided guidance in how to get the most money for the jewelry I had. She is simply the best of the best! read more
