Sell It, Trade It, or Loan on It


Selling isn't your only option at Stein's.

If you have jewelry you no longer want, you may be able to trade it toward another piece from our selection of pre-owned, estate, antique, and other jewelry.


If you don't want to sell your jewelry permanently, you may also be able to use qualifying jewelry or precious metals as collateral for a loan. Jewelry loans do not require a credit check because your item serves as the collateral.


This gives you options depending on what works best for you.

We Buy Broken & Unwanted Jewelry


Don't assume broken or outdated jewelry has no value.

Stein's purchases many types of unwanted and damaged jewelry, including broken gold chains, rings, bracelets, earrings, class rings, and other precious-metal pieces. We also purchase certain silver, platinum, diamond, coin, and other valuable items.

If you're cleaning out a jewelry box, settling an estate, or simply have pieces you no longer wear, bring them to Stein's for an evaluation.


Diamonds & Fine Jewelry


We buy diamonds in a variety of forms, including loose diamonds and diamonds set in rings, earrings, necklaces, pendants, and other jewelry.

If you have a diamond or fine jewelry piece you are considering selling, bring it in so we can examine it and discuss its value with you.
