OUR PROCESS AND HOW IT BENEFITS YOU

STORE 5a is not just a consignment store. STORE 5a is a simple and safe way to buy and sell luxury items. Consignment stores host a large collection of other people’s items. STORE 5a offers to purchases each and every item before adding it to our one-of-a-kind collection. Why does this benefit you? Let us walk you through the benefits of selling and buying pre-owned jewelry, watches, handbags & more at STORE 5a.
 
Benefits to Selling
 
1. When you visit STORE 5a in-store or online, from beginning to end, you are working with true experts of the trade. Our shop boasts over 70 years of experience in the jewelry industry.
2. We provide a real, fixed offer unlike consignment shops, which usually only offer a small percentage of the final sale price. This may sound appealing at first, and a quick way to remove your luxury items, but as time goes by, consignment stores will continuously drop the sale price of your item to keep their inventory moving. STORE 5a buys your items outright and you will receive a check for the full amount of your luxury item. No waiting, no hassles, no funny business.
 
Benefits to Buying Pre-Owned
 
1. Authentication:
STORE 5a has our very own in-house shop that authenticates and refurbishes each and every piece, bringing it to like new condition! This not only increases the value of your item, but you can rest assured knowing that STORE 5a is a part of the Diamond Cellar, nearly 70 years of experience. Consignment shops never seem to have a set process to their authentication process, leaving you uneasy about your purchase. The majority of consignment shops do not have the experience nor ability to authenticate pieces like STORE 5a. For more information on our authentication & refurbishment process please read more (link).
 
2. Refurbishing:
STORE 5a has an exact process and the experience to refurbish your piece, increasing the value of your item. Unlike, consignment shops that do not own their inventory, many are unable to bring once loved pieces back to like new condition. It is a very exact process that varies from piece to piece and when done poorly can have an inverse effect on the items value.

 

STORE 5a stands by our reputation. By owning each piece, we personally take the time to properly care for each item, have our items appraised and refurbished, and them as our own, because they are.
