Estate jewellery holds both sentimental and financial value, making the decision to sell such pieces a delicate matter. At Hock Stars, we recognize the significance of these choices. We help clients navigate the process with empathy and professionalism. Our aim is to offer transparency, clarity, and fair valuations for every item in a jewellery estate.
Step-by-Step Evaluation of Each Piece
We meticulously evaluate each piece of jewellery individually. Our team takes a comprehensive approach, as we believe every item deserves our full attention.
We assess features such as the type of metal and gemstone quality and current market trends. Using our tools, we inspect each item closely, providing a thorough and accurate assessment.

Transparent Communication Throughout the Process
At Hock Stars, transparency is vital. Once we finish evaluating each item, we present our offers in a clear and straightforward manner. This clarity ensures that clients understand what they will receive for each piece.
For example, if we value a piece at $5,000, we explain how we reached this amount based on factors like the precious metal composition, gemstone quality, and current market prices. This educated approach helps alleviate concerns about potential undervaluation and fosters a sense of empowerment among sellers.
We emphasize open dialogue during this stage. Should you have questions or uncertainties, our team is here to clarify and support, ensuring you feel confident in every aspect of the process.
Your Choice: Sell or Keep
After receiving offers, you are under no obligation to sell any items. We respect that this decision is personal and should reflect your comfort level. Whether you want to sell certain pieces, keep them for sentimental value, or explore other avenues, we will support your choice.
For instance, a client may choose to keep a necklace passed down through generations because it represents cherished memories. We honour these deep emotional ties while providing a professional service.
The Offer Process
Should you decide to proceed, we complete the transaction. Our offers provide a clear breakdown of values assigned to each piece. This straightforward approach ensures no hidden surprises for clients.
We prioritize a hassle-free experience. Feedback often highlights how our organized methods contribute to a stress-free process, enhancing client satisfaction.

This process goes beyond numbers—it's about building connections.
