Frequently Asked Questions About Buying Jewelry & Watches

Answers to the most important questions about the process, discretion and payout at Juwelier Kronenfels in Düsseldorf.

How does selling to Juwelier Kronenfels work?

You contact us via the form on the homepage, by phone, or in person. After an initial assessment, we arrange an appointment at our atelier or, for larger collections and estates, a home visit. After the expert examination you receive a no-obligation offer; if you accept, we pay out immediately.

Is the valuation really free and non-binding?

Yes. The appraisal of your jewelry, watch or gemstone is always free and non-binding. You decide, without any time pressure, whether to accept our offer. There is no obligation to sell.

Do I need a receipt, certificate or original packaging?

No, that is not a requirement. Existing documents such as a receipt, box, papers or certificates (e.g. from GIA or IGI) can positively influence the achievable price, but are not essential for a valuation.

Do you also buy damaged or non-working jewelry and watches?

Yes. We also buy jewelry with signs of wear, individual pieces, broken chains, or watches that are currently not running. Condition is factored transparently into the price.

How quickly will I receive my money?

After the examination is complete and you accept our offer, you receive payment immediately on site.

Do you also offer home visits?

Yes, especially for larger estates or collections, or when a visit to our atelier isn't possible, we're happy to visit you in person in any district of Düsseldorf.

How discreet is the purchase process?

Discretion is a high priority for us. On request, we arrange appointments outside our usual opening hours, and all information about your property is treated confidentially.

What happens if I'm not happy with the offer?

Then you are under no obligation whatsoever. Our valuation is non-binding, you can decline our offer at any time and take your property with you unchanged.

I'm a co-heir: can you appraise items for several heirs together?

Yes, gladly. We document the valuation transparently and clearly, so it can also serve as a basis for dividing assets within a community of heirs. On request, we coordinate appointments with several heirs.

In which neighborhoods and districts are you available to customers?

We serve customers from all 10 districts of Düsseldorf, from Altstadt to Oberkassel to Garath. An overview of all districts with local information can be found on our homepage.

Do you also buy from private individuals without a business?

Yes, we buy both from private individuals and as part of estates and inheritances. A registered business is not required.
