Engagement and wedding rings, wedding dresses and marriage certificates are items that many people wonder about after the end of their relationship.\u00a0 What can you do with them?<\/p>\n<p>Engagement rings and wedding rings often come with a big price tag and if the items lose their emotional value, there is the option to sell them.\u00a0 Jewellers sometimes will buy their pieces back but at a significant discount.\u00a0 On average, they will buy them back at only 35% of original value.<\/p>\n<p>Many people in similar situations have opted to sell their rings online through websites such as \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.idonowidont.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I Do\u2026 Now I Don\u2019t<\/a>\u201d.\u00a0 The founder, Joshua Opperman, was left with a ring after his engagement ended prematurely which prompted him to found the jewellery auction site to help others in similar situations part with their rings.\u00a0 He has since been featured on Rachael Ray, CNN, and Whoopi Goldberg.<\/p>\n<p>One important factor when selling your high valued item online is to minimize risk of scam.\u00a0 On \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.idonowidont.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I Do\u2026Now I Don\u2019t<\/a>\u201d, sellers can list their rings for free.\u00a0 Once the item is purchased, the money is held in escrow by the website.\u00a0 The seller will send the ring in for authentication by GIA-trained gemologist.\u00a0 Once the ring has been authenticated, the ring will be sent to the buyer via UPS with insurance included and a bank cheque will be mailed out to the seller.<\/p>\n<p>Sellers will typically receive 40 \u2013 60% of the retail price for their item, minus a 15% commission fee. If you are making payments on the ring, this return can help you substantially in reducing your debt.<\/p>\n<p>Parting with your engagement or wedding ring might give you the emotional detachment you need to help you move forward past the relationship and onto something better!
