Why district buyers pay more

Compressed competition. Dozens of buyers within walking distance compete for inventory.

Walk-in appraisals. Free verbal estimates from multiple specialists in one afternoon.

Selling tips for the Jewelers Building

Visit on a weekday morning when buyers have time for full evaluations rather than rushing weekend walk-ins.
Bring 2–3 pieces, not 10. Specialist buyers give detailed offers when they can focus.
Collect 3 offers minimum. District buyers know they're competing; first offers are usually 10–15% below their ceiling.
Use the district's security. Most district buildings have armed lobby security; for $10K+ transports, ask for escort to your car.
