“I had some concerns about pricing, safety and the timing of a transaction, but USDT provided a good list of comparable diamonds for sale, then gave me a bigger list when I wanted to see more. They took a tremendous amount of time to make me comfortable, and even suggested other avenues I could take to sell. I appreciated their transparency. I research other options, but it became clear to me that USDT was my best option for maximizing the price. The great thing about the USDT consignment method is that no one within the distribution channel takes any inventory risk, so their working capital invested in inventory is zero. This greatly benefits the customer. In my case, USDT received the diamond, then passed it along to their network of independent jewelers. Since the jewelers don’t have to tie up capital in diamond inventory, they can still make a nice profit and I ended up with more money in my pocket.
Call around to direct buy options. You will be shocked by how little they will want to pay you for your diamond. USDT will get you more. It will take some time to maximize the price but unless you need the cash yesterday it is entirely worth it.
The USDT team is great. They keep their word which is the most important characteristic for me. They actually sold my diamond for more than I paid for it 8 years ago. I was more than happy to pay a commission for doing that. The next best offer I got (phone offer based on the certificate. – the diamond was unseen) was more than 30% less than what USDT got me, even after their commission.”

“When I decided to use US Diamond Traders, I had been shopping my stone around to local jewelers, and they varied widely with their appraisals and offers. I was lucky enough to get a referral to check out USDT. I dealt with Todd who met with me at my convenience and explained in great detail the appraisal process and developed a plan to sell my diamond that met all my needs. The sale was quick and painless. I would recommend USDT to anyone who is looking for a broker that will get you the most money for your diamond. Great service. I am a very satisfied customer.”

“When I decided to sell my diamond, I wanted the process to be quick and simple. I was referred to USDT by a trusted vendor, Union Diamond. I was able to meet with Todd in person and liked his personal approach. The process was indeed simple and quick, and I knew I was out nothing if my diamond didn’t sell. It was a great experience, and while I don’t anticipate having another diamond to sell, I would work with USDT again, and would recommend them to friends and family.”

“Initially I was very scared to trust someone with my diamond. When I met with USDT, they were very helpful and answered my questions about selling my diamond, and they wanted me to take my time and think about the information they provided. Honesty and trust is what separates US Diamond Traders from other companies. I researched and visited an abundance of jewelry traders and the USDT team’s demeanor and knowledge of selling diamonds is what sold me on them. You can trust USDT because they care about you and your diamond.”

“We went to many different jewelers and received many conflicting responses. There was no trust in sight. On our first visit with USDT, we had a gut reaction that they were totally sincere. We finally found honesty and trust, and liked the consignment arrangement. They also helped us get a new GIA certificate. During the process, they proved generous pricing to give us our desired price, even if we had to wait awhile. We are eternally grateful for the high level of character the USDT team brings to their business. With them, you have nothing to lose when selling your diamond.”
