Answer by  hulmer (1067)

Your best bet is to visit a jeweler or jewelry dealer FIRST. They will likely give you the fairest (best) price(s) for your gem stones. - If all else fails, you can try a pawn shop, but they will often short you.

You should follow up on two options in trying to sell gemstones. First, check out online sites like EBay and Craig's List to see how similar gemstones have been priced in recent auctions. If those prices suit you, list there. Otherwise, contact jewelers in your area to see if they sell on consignment.

Unless you want to spend a great deal of time learning about gemstones, quality, clarity, vintage worth etc- your best bet is to find a reputable jeweler to assess your stones. Evaluating gems is a lifetime career. You can go online and find benchmarks and guidelines, but only an eye trained for a lifetime can truly assess the value.

You can get them appraised at several reputable jewelers. They have experts working there who should be able to tell you the approximate value of the stones. They may also make an offer to buy them.
