Northern Appraisal Services

Very fast, almost too fast. He checked each piece and he did it right then and there in front of me. There was a lot of jewelry. It was mostly costume jewelry, but needed appraisals for attorney. He was friendly and easy to work with. I feel it was expensive, but I have nothing to compare with, because I have never had a jewelry appraisal before. So, I am not sure if it was fair or not. I would hire him again.

Northern Appraisal Services went through each piece with me and got it all appraised in a couple of hours. I was very pleased.

It was a great experience. Mitchell was friendly & explained what he was going to do. He made me a copy & one to take to my insurance company. I learned a lot about jewelry & would certainly use him again.

Wow! Mitch is great and really knows his stuff. Mitch is a self described gem n*** - He's the type of guy you want doing your jewelry appraisal work. Mitch is extremely knowledgeable about diamonds and other gemstones. He explained exactly what he was doing and I felt confident in his work.

Beautifully. Mitch was responsive to my call and made an appointment with me the same week. When I needed to move the time he was accommodating. During the 2 1/2 hours I was in the office, Mitch interacted with me professionally about my pieces. He asked answered my questions and gave advise on pieces I might not want to spend the time/$ on a full appraisal with. He showed a genuine interest in and love for the work he was doing, without prying. At the end I have 2 copies of printed, signed documents on the appraisals. I requested an electronic copy as well, which he gladly sent. The price seems like a lot to pay, but i have peace of mind now that this is done.

Felt comfortable leaving jewelry for several hours while appraisal being done. Very professional. Had a diamond engagement ring appraised previously at a large local retail jewelry store, and later realized he had also done that appraisal. With the increase in metals and precious stones, worth the cost for insurance purposes.

Service provider was very friendly, honest, up front. Evaluated our late mothers jewelry collection, We had no idea what we had, which wasn't much. Service provider made recommendations and gave options on where to take it if we decided to sell

It went very well. Mr. Dustin photographed the pieces and examined them thoroughly, giving us his replacement value estimates for insurance purposes. He also looked at several additional pieces and gave us informal estimates of their value as well at no extra charge. Within about a week we received the formal statement presented very professionally with full color photos of each piece, "maps" of the large diamonds, and detailed narrative descriptions of the pieces in a nice binder with copies of everything for my files. Mr. Dustin was very qualified, knowledgeable and very pleasant and interesting to talk to. He has a fine reputation and I would definitely recommend him.

Excellent, he's a fine gentleman that knows his business.

MItch was great - professional, easy to talk to, thorough and honest (I had a previous replacement cost appraisal on one of the 3 insurance items and he was within 1% of the same valuation). If you need jewelry appraised for any purpose, I would highly recommend Northern Appraisal Services.
