nice man thats heavy and mad diamonds for the baby jesus
you did well, that icebox piece is overpriced. this is a jacob with jacob diamonds. i know for a fact this piece hits hard when some light hits it. and it doesn't look like every other jesus peice posted up here.

Anyone ever actually filed a claim for insurance? I recently signed up and just got my bracelet appraised and the guy appraised it for 3x what I actually paid. I’m assuming that’s normal? Because insurance won’t pay what it’s actually worth?

Appraisal is always higher, but it also drives your insurance costs up

got an 18k gold chain weighing just under 29 grams. got it as partial payment for a bet i won and i have zero desire to keep or wear it as it's some style i can't even describe. what's the best way to sell it or trade it in? only thing i'd need at this point is a white gold rope 3mm about 22" or 24". i calculated scrap value and it came up around $1042, but i realize it fluctuates and scrap value doesn't necessarily mean that's the number i'd get selling it to a jeweler or whatever.
what's my best option? ebay i'm guessing?

yeah sum of them look kinda big for a small piece, well done jr35. I wouldn't pick that mold personally but nobody cares and it's an official Jacob & Co so the stones prolly look good when the light hits. it was really a good buy if you like that mold IMO. the blue is still a steal if you can pull it off. Ghostface made a dope but arguably cheapish (cause it's hallow) Jesus piece a classic so that's an example of how it's not what you do but how it's done or in other words it isn't the chain that makes the man, it's the other way around.

is it normal to be quoted an 11 gram difference between 2 stores for the same made to order chain?
