Schlomi and Steve at TruVal were a pleasure to work with, and made selling my antique diamond ring a simple, straightforward and easy experience.

Despite the fact that I needed to reschedule a number of times, Schlomi made room for me in his schedule, took the time to discuss the ins and outs of how he appraised my ring, matched the price of another appraisal I’d received and even beat the terms. On a later visit, Steve made the final transaction easy and was a pleasure to work with.

I highly recommend TruVal, and will certainly keep them in my Rolodex. read less

I had a very gratifying experience and walked home with a check in hand. The generally "bad press" associated with jewelry buyers does not apply here.. I have no hesitation in recommending Truval to anyone wanting to sell jewelry; in fact, I look forward to doing additional business with them. Top of the line team. read less

The office is on the 6th floor of a real high rise vs. being on the street, and you can even book an appt online.

Many thanks to the staff at Truval for providing a comfortable, educational and warm environment in which to do business. Schlomi was gifted in evaluating my piece and extended his depth of knowledge to me during the process. He had respect for my heart and demonstrated a sincere consideration for his other customers and staff while I was there. At Truval’s suggestion, I took my piece to the GIA Institute to have it graded and documented. When that process was complete, I returned to Truval and sold my piece to them with confidence. I feel I got a very fair deal, an education and a place to do business in the future. I would return to them in a heartbeat! Thank you Shlomi and Steve! Go to Truval! read less

Their mail in service was so easy. Less than a week before I had my check in hand. A delight to work with. Not pushy at all. Nothing set in stone (no pun intended) until you decide to accept the offer. Just a delight to work with. Made a tough situation so much easier for me. From their online chat feature to their phone number, customer service was always accessible. I have no reservations and will use them again. Wonderful experience read less

I had a small but unusual diamond ring to sell, and while I know a jeweler whom I asked for a recommendation, "his guy" does not deal with small stuff. So, I turned to Yelp and based on the reviews, and after clicking through to their website, I decided to try TruVal.

I did not know what to expect and did not have an appointment. Steve was welcoming and friendly and based on the little I did know about m ring, I was comfortable with his offer. He also discussed several other rings I had with me and made me an offer for them as well.

I would definitely go to TruVal again. Thank you, Steve! read less

They follow up with you every step. Zak and Steve are very nice and very helpful. I shopped around and got the different quotes for my diamond, not to mention which other 3 companies you could find on Google. As far as I concerned, Truval gave me the fair price and gave me more than the others. If you don't believe me, please shop around for the quote then decide!!! They will never give you maximum price they estimate, but you have to accept that because you always lose the value after you purchase it, just like a car. You will be happier than selling to the retailer.... read less

I did my research and chose Truval based on other reviews and maybe a little intuition. I was not disappointed in the least. The atmosphere in the office is very calm and organized. I was greeted by a pleasant receptionist and only waited a few moments before I sat down with Steve. What a knowledgeable and likeable person! I felt during the entire appointment that he was genuinely interested in anything I had to say or question and felt that he was extremely fair in his assessment of the items that I brought in. All in all I would definitely recommend working with Steve at Truval. read less

Mr. Steve assisted me in the mailing process of my jewelry and gave me a more then fair price for the items I sent them.

It was a pleasure working with TruVal and would recommend them to anyone who is looking to sell there items. A key factor to me was that they are a BBB participant with a A rating.

And the turn around time from the time they received my jewelry to the time I accepted there offer was minimal.

Great place to do business with.

Steve is very knowledgeable and also very transparent. He gave me a thorough evaluation and rational explanation for his pricing for each piece which is hard to find. Having gone to many appraisers and buyers in the past, he gave me the fairest prices (considering their cost value) out of all of them. I will definitely go back in the future and would recommend Truval to anyone seeking a secure and credible buyer. Thank you Truval! read less

He also had one of his diamond experts on hand and he took another piece to a rare coin expert, so I would have no doubts on the value. I had researched for days and since this was my first time selling our jewelry, I wanted to make sure it was the best place. In fact, I will be going back in a couple weeks ! I will continue to do business with Truval. read less

I know that Yelp reviews can be manipulated (one of the other places had a computer in their lobby telling customers that if they gave them positive Yelp review, that they would get an immediate 10% discount!) so I am always skeptical, even with a good Yelp rating. Still, I decided to check out TruVal as I figured I had nothing to lose.

I did not have an appointment and I met with Zak and he was genuinely a pleasure to work with. He gave me a price on my rings that was 2.5x the other offers and I accepted it without negotiating the price. First, he told me what the rings were worth and then what he would pay. I also had some gold and silver necklaces to sell, which they purchased as well, also giving me a very fair price. Note: I understand that they do take appointments so if you know you are stopping by, it may make sense to make an appointment first.

I know that it is so easy to get ripped off by jewelers, especially if you are like me and know very little about jewelry. If you have anything to sell, you can go elsewhere to get a few prices to compare but always go here afterward and you will be shocked at what they will offer and the probability of you being lowballed elsewhere. For me, the difference was quite significant, like I said earlier, 2.5x!

I will definitely be back here. read less

I was selling a number of pieces of gold and other jewelry after the passing of a loved one. First off, the office is very safe and secure. It is located on an upper floor of an office building, so you feel safer when walking out than you would if you were selling to one of the retail stores at street level. Steve and his colleagues were very friendly, and I felt no pressure at all to sell. He took his time to inspect and test each and every piece, even stuff I thought was worthless, and offered me an extremely fair price for the gold jewelry--so much so that I accepted his offer on the spot without even haggling for more. He was also extremely respectful of my decisions with respect to the few pieces I decided not to sell right away. In fact, he made such a good impression that when another buyer from whom I sought a second opinion offered me a similar price for certain pieces the next day, I decided to go back to Steve to sell those pieces too. Steve and Truval will be my go-to jewelers from now on! read less

He is a “diamond in the rough” among so many dealers in the NYC Diamond district. I learned a lot in my dealings down there. Mostly - I will never deal with anyone else but Truval in the future! read less

Going to an impartial appraiser confirmed how outrageous the first 2 experiences were. He gave me the knowledge and confidence to get a fair price. It was then that I showed up without an appointment at Truval. Steve has a pleasant demeanor and is not pushy. He clearly has experience and has learned to harness it in a way that creates a comfortable setting. Steve offered a fair price for most items. When I felt the offer was not enough, I would counter and Steve would go to where he was comfortable. No hard feelings if we didn’t come to a meeting of the minds. Overall, I feel that I had a 5 star experience. I would go back again and if I did, I might hold firm on certain items. It is important to remember that sales is an art form, employing strategies to get the best price. No doubt I am no match for Steve, but he never makes you feel like you are anything but an equal and respected client. Thanks Steve for bringing some class to your industry. read less

I’ve been to others where the appraisers made me feel like it was a bother to look at my items. Leaving me with a feeling like they were low balling me. At Truwal, I set up a 15 min appointment with Steve. I felt welcomed and it was done in a private office setting . Not some kiosk where a hundred jewlers are staring at you and pressuring you for business. I felt comfortable with the prices that were offered and trusted that my business was valued. Truval will remain my go to place for future appraisals and to sell my jewelry! read less

The whole process was super easy, Steve was professional and a sweetheart, and they give you extremely fair prices for your items. Unlike other places in the same area, I didn't feel cheated or uncomfortable. If I ever have more jewelry that I don't need, there's no other place I would bother going to. read less

Also:  be sure to bring all documents for Hermes/Cartier/Rolex and extra links, original box, etc for watches since they pay out more when these things are included. read less
