genuine tiffany jewellery to sell- ebay?

ihatechoosingnames

have a tiffany necklace and ring to sell (both boxed) but where is the best place to sell them? i'm worried that they'll get lost between all the fake ones on ebay and i don't think tiffany buy back jewellery..

have a look on ebay and see how much they are going for and how many items like yours there are on there! you will then get an idea how well they sell and for how much for! remember to click the completed items button and then you can see the previous auctions.

Be careful with Tiffany on ebay, they fought ebay a couple of years ago and now take a hard line on sellers. Do a Google search on ebay and Tiffany fo rmore information, here is a taster:

How about taking them to an auction? Check on google to see where your closest one is.

That's a good idea, you often get quite a few bidders at real auctions and you have the safety net that you get paid quickly and safely.

Ask around, some auctions places, but not all, will allow you to try your item and not charge you if it fails to reach a reserve.

Do you have a certificate of authenticity ? I know some jewellery comes with one, and thats a great way to tell i its real or not ?
If you put it on ebay, I may have a bid myself ! lol

ummm no certificate, just the usual bits and pieces that it comes with (box, pouch etc) it is all stamped though and i am positive that it is genuine because my bf purchased it from Tiffany at the time.

I've listed them now anyway, thanks for everyone's help but i don't have time to go to auction houses at the moment. I said that the condition was "used" and I'm hoping that that doesn't deterr people..

i'm not sure if i'm allowed to post the link to the item here so if you pm me i'll send you it

unfortunately all the fake stuff is listed as genuine. so yours will look like a used item up agianst new items and you won't get the price you could if there was no fake stuff on there.

be very careful to set a decent reserve or starting price. you don't want to give it away too cheap. Can't you keep it and enjoy it?

dont bother selling it on ebay,. the wife sold her bracelet for 32£,. when it was about 99£ new,. had it for about 1 month tops,. way too much fakes on ebay even clothing trainers,..

it's listed already...i've just got my fingers crossed now
i don't have too many options to sell it due to time constraints. i'd take it to a jewellers but i don't think any of them buy Tiffany jewellery. It's not like gold where the material has value, it's just fashion that sets the price for it.
