How and when can I sell loose diamonds?

For those just starting out in investing in diamonds, it might be unclear how and when you can sell the loose diamond for the highest profit or to whom you can sell it. So, the experts at BNT Diamonds have listed some useful tips to help you.

After owning a diamond for some time, you can consider reselling it. Diamonds typically yield profits in the long term, starting from 5 to 10 years. 3 years after purchasing a diamond from us, we can estimate it for you, free of charge.

BNT Diamonds can look for a buyer : Alternatively, we leverage our extensive network to find suitable buyer for your diamonds. However, you must be aware that we cannot provide guarantees about resale values and the time within a possible resale can be completed.

Organize your own auction online : Today, more and more investors are finding their way to platforms such as eBay, Catawiki and Sotheby’s to resell their BNT Diamonds. With this in mind, organizing an auction could be an option. Here (or on other comparable sales platforms) one can set the price himself and is therefore likely to make a higher profit.

Offer your more special diamond to an auction house : For diamonds of very high quality or that are particularly rare (e.g. fancy coloured diamonds), then the general market is not the best option. The reason for this, is the rarity and exclusivity of these diamonds. These are better sold through specialized auction houses such as Christie's or Sotheby's, which cater to a highly knowledgeable niche audience.
