Natural BGD diamond earrings - advice on resale please

[inthegreen]

Bought these lovely hook drop bezel diamonds (natural) from BGD back in 2020. Platinum settings.
0.631ct J VSI and 0.621ct J VVSI. Paid $4200 total. Only worn for a few hours and thinking of selling, but wondering how much lab diamond availability has affected used market. Would really appreciate any advice on ballpark appropriate pricing, before I list on LoupeTroop / PS used. Thank you.

The closest comps I could find were .63/.64 "I"s at $1520 and $1530. Drop a couple hundred
because they are Js would put them at about $1300. Add a couple hundred because yours
are better clarity putting them at $1500 a piece? Add a little for the settings. Then you need to
subtract off a percentage because they are "resell". This is pretty rough calculating. Just trying
to give you an idea. Natural diamond prices are down right now.

Could you turn them into something else you would wear? Add a colored stone and make a 3 stone???
Or a lab stone and make a 3 stone? Might they be worth holding on to until natural prices are back up?

Probably around 2k. BG lists a 0.6 ct J VVS2 for 1k and a 0.68 ct J VS1 for 1.1k. I second the idea to keep them for a 3 stone.

Secondary market it about 40% of retail unless it’s a branded piece. These are branded but not Tiffany type of branded. So maybe 50% retail. I agree that there is more value in keeping them.

I missed those on BGD. Those are much better comps. (BGD selection tools/methods can be hard to use sometimes. I really
dont like them!)
