Here’s How to Collect Cash from Preloved Jewelry, Coins, & More

Posted on March 2, 2023 by David's Jewelry and Coin Exchange

We could all use a little extra spending money from time to time. Selling your preloved jewelry, coins, and other valuable items to David’s Jewelry & Coin Exchange could be the payday you’re looking for! Keep reading to learn more.

How to Get Started

Spring is one of our favorite times of the year because, traditionally, it’s when people take inventory of their possessions, deciding what to keep and what to discard. If you’re looking for a little help getting started with your spring cleaning, check out our older blog on this topic here.

Collecting cash from preowned items is really a simple, three-step process.

1. Declutter

You’d be surprised at how much stuff one person can accumulate in a year. And if you’re not an annual spring cleaner, you’re probably unaware of just how much stuff you actually have that you don’t use on a regular basis.

Start with your jewelry box. This is where you’re most likely to find items that will get you the most bang for your buck. If you can’t remember the last time you wore something, odds are you won’t miss it if it’s gone. Add it to the collection of items you’d like to sell.

Pro tip: we accept pieces that need a little TLC or are missing their mate!

Next, you should move on to your closet to see if there are any designer bags you’re willing to part ways with. After that, check your attic and basement for any long-forgotten coins, collectibles, or memorabilia that you’re okay getting rid of—we buy Texas A&M vintage jerseys, pins, pennants, photos, awards, and yearbooks.

Don’t be so quick to disregard a jar of old coins or the ones you inherited from your parents or grandparents! There could be a few hidden gems that could be sold for a higher price than you would think.

2. Bring Your Items to David’s Jewelry & Coin Exchange

Bring in the items you have gathered for us to evaluate and make an offer! Our process is quick and easy. It generally takes ten minutes or less for one of our experienced team members to evaluate your items (depending on how much you have).

With more than 30 years of experience and as a Best of the Brazos Valley winner, we value our reputation as an upstanding business in the community. Our prices are fair and generally higher than others.

3. Collect Cash from Your Preloved Jewelry, Coins, and More

We can make you a cash offer on the same day. Get an honest evaluation and offer for your items and leave with more money than you had when you came in. It’s that easy! Or, if something in our store catches your eye, you can put the value of your items towards a trade for a new piece from our inventory.

Excellent Customer Service

We love being a part of the Brazos Valley community and strive to create an excellent experience for every customer. If you have questions about acceptable items, or our process, feel free to give us a call. We would be happy to chat with you and provide more details on how to sell you items. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Decluttering Your Jewelry Box: How We Can Help with Your Spring Cleaning

Posted on March 3, 2022 by David's Jewelry and Coin Exchange

Now that you’ve had time to settle into the New Year, it’s time to declutter and make room for the new things that 2022 will bring. It’s the time for spring cleaning, and there’s no telling what you might find hiding in the back of your closet, corner of your attic, junk drawers, or in those boxes in your garage. And here’s a pro tip: add a “Sell” pile to your “Keep,” “Trash,” and “Give Away” baskets. As you get into the spirit of the season, decluttering your jewelry box and other places can also allow you to cash in in the process!

Decluttering Your Jewelry Box this Spring

When decluttering your jewelry box, you’d be surprised what you can get back when you sell your preloved items. You could be sitting on extra cash for a date night, new shoes, a tank of gas, and more. One person’s old or unused jewelry, coins, and valuables are our treasure! So, bring in your stuff, and let us take a look to see what we can offer you back in cash or check the same day.

And if you’re thinking you can’t bring in a piece of jewelry to sell because it needs a little TLC, think again! We buy used and broken jewelry as well as the new stuff. Come in and allow us to value your haul—a handsome payday might be in your future!

Coins & Collections

You don’t have to have an entire coin collection to make a visit worth your while. A single coin can get you a worthwhile offer. It’s well worth it to have our experts evaluate the worth of any coins you may be unsure of.

We Take Sterling Silver Flatware & Hollowware

A particular relic of the past that usually holds a lot of sentimental value—but doesn’t get a lot of use—is sterling silver flatware and hollowware. These are the pieces in the wood case that may be a family heirloom or inheritance. If you have both flatware—forks, knives, spoons—and hollowware—coffee pots, tea kettles, platters—they can take up a good bit of space.

If you can tolerate parting ways with yours, we’d love to take a look at it and see what we can offer you. We determine value based on the weight of the items that are sterling silver. Take a look at this video to help you determine if your flatware and hollowware is real silver.

10 Minutes or Less

One of the best parts about working with us is that we don’t just value your valuables, we value your time too! Our evaluation and offer process usually takes 10 minutes or less, depending on the size of your haul. There’s no reason not to head our way after decluttering your jewelry box, junk drawers, and more!

We love meeting new people and helping long-time customers, alike, so stop by and show us what you’ve found. We’re conveniently located on University Drive in College Station!
