hi i'm lisa krikawa and i'm herewith louis of national rarities.thanks for having us. so louis comes to krikawa jewelry designsevery so often, a couple times a year and make purchases of some fine antiques and other raritieslouis, why don't you tell us a little about company. yeah, we buy all sorts of thingsanywhere from jewelry to coins, watches, as you can see here.silver and in the back, oil and watercolorpaintings and basically whatever we can findif you have some things sitting around, not doing any
good or just curious come on take a look giveyou a fair price or just if you want to know maybe what it's worth you don't have to sell and it'spretty simple that's really cool. so you go to different places around the country we go to multiple jewelers around thecountry and again we run our ad for people that wanna simplifysome things out of their life make it a little easier or just want to getsome cash in their hand go on a trip or somethingso you can appraise items based upon what
they sell at auctionyes, auction prices so if it sells at a certain price at auction i can show them and say this is what it sells for and we go from there or if they'rejust getting an idea for maybe actual insurance value, kinda give them an idea for that what they can insure it forso you're happy to do that there's no charge for thatno charge absolutely and so some things you will buy and melt downyes some things are unfortunately unsaleable, especiallyseventies and eighties jewelry sometimes, so that gets refined downfor the gold and silver value or platinum
but we have a great way to sellwe have a lot dealers and collectors we know if it is at all collectible or anythinglike that we can sell them so we don't have to melt everything downsome things do have extra value than gold and silver and you don't pay full retail value so you know if somebody has something insured for two thousand-dollarsthat doesn't mean you're gonna pay them two thousand dollarsyeah, unfortunately not we're on your side, if it's worthmore, we are going to pay more and that would be great but unfortunatelythat's insurance value it's a
price that is not actual wholesale valueor what it's actually worth right because youwould go to auction yeah well what i tell everyone is youritems are worth what someone is willing to pay so auction's the best way to find that i'm assuming that it changes throughoutthe years, what is hot what is sellingexactly, right now watches are selling really well they're selling over into actually asialike rolex? gold watches? rolex, even pocket watcheseven broken junk stuff
people are buying it up like crazyas far as jewelry, it's selling better now, depending on the economy, things go up or down it's been pretty interesting the last fiveyears to see the difference paintings used to sell really wellthey went back down and now they're kinda coming back so it just depends on the time of the yearhow about diamonds? do you buy them? yes we buy diamonds, loose, ungraded orgia-certified preferably a carat, we always say that's what the ladies want
or morebut we'll buy anything if i can see what it's worth and pay for that andi will and also some oddball things like toys it's evolved into what we can buyand sell for a little bit more so if you have a toy or really old toys someone once brought in an old wooden sledone time, we didn't buy it unfortunately but yeah there's a lotof cool things that are out there that you want to put value on
that actually someone else in thisworld is willing to pay for so we just say come along and bringanything you want and again, it's free of charge and we'd be happy to sort through it all for you it's a really great way to clean out your closet clean out the attic and make a little bit of cash and these guys know what's gonna sell so they can help you out i hope you come downsometime next time they're in town and see whatyour things are worth thanks for joining us and thanks louisthanks for having us and we look forward to seeing
everyone
