Gold buyers in Lighthouse Point
Nicholas Estate Buyers buys gold, platinum, diamonds and luxury watches from Lighthouse Point sellers at 2821 E Oakland Park Blvd in Fort Lauderdale. A GIA Graduate Gemologist tests and weighs gold in front of you and prices it against the day's spot market. Older diamond and platinum pieces are assessed as jewelry, not melted metal. The offer is free.
Older rings, platinum and old-cut diamonds
Estates in Lighthouse Point often include jewelry from an earlier generation: platinum engagement rings, filigree settings and diamonds cut by hand long before modern brilliant cuts became standard. These are the pieces most at risk of being underpaid by a buyer who only weighs metal.
Nicholas Estate Buyers looks at them one at a time. Platinum is tested and confirmed rather than assumed. Old European and old mine cut diamonds are graded on site, and a period piece in good condition is valued for what it is. You are told which pieces are being priced as jewelry and which as metal, piece by piece.
