Why Sell to Us?

At Leo Hamel’s, we understand that the decision to sell your valuable may be highly sentimental. Some customers come to our store to sell a family heirloom and we never pressure them into selling until they are fully confident in their decision. We are different from other San Diego jewelry buyers: we will evaluate a piece of jewelry as a whole. Other might offer you the price of just the scrap gold it contains. There is a reason why we do it the way we do: we need quality vintage jewelry and pre-owned watches for our own jewelry store. If you have a beautiful piece of jewelry or a pre-owned watch, we will evaluate them as such and offer a competitive price. We will then refurbish the pieces so they can be bought and cherished by someone else. In that way, we make sure your heirloom is preserved. We also buy broken or damaged jewelry, scraps of gold, and even watches that are not running. So even if your jewelry is no longer beautiful, bring it in! We will find the value in it.
