some one offer me These things

Hey for all,

Someone offer me these antiques at 3500 US$!

What do you think it's worth ?

 

I'm not one of the jewelry experts, but unless that watch is high karat gold, and the ring is platinum, and that's a real ruby in the bracelet, I'm not seeing that value.

 

Hi Khaled, good you asked. 3500 US$ is far, far too much.
These are items I wouldn't buy or sell, but I know some of our members do, so they'll be able to inform you better.
As far as I can see, most of them are in the $5-30 range.

Just wondering, what material are the dark red beads on the first item, the pretty one that looks like a tesbih?

 

Thank for your opinion

 

According to him, the white necklace original ivory, the gold omega watch gold only on the circle, and the balance of the necklace was made up of gemstones and there is 2 normal old Jovial watches

Did he say what kind of gemstones? Some stone necklaces can be bought for a few dollars.

It doesn't look like ivory, and it is a combination that is not generally made with ivory beads. If it is ivory, he should be able to show you by sending a closeup photo of the beads.

I don't know if ivory can be sold in the UAE, but in most of the world it is banned. So even if it is ivory, which is doubtful, you wouldn't be able to sell it in most of the world.

 

Most of those don't look like antiques either.

Where are you? Ivory may have selling restrictions.

 

Are those garnets on the first necklace or dyed pearls? I just can’t make it out.

 

I think peral

 

Really i don't know about the restriction here maybe you right

 

If they are dyed freshwater pearls, they are pretty, but cheap.
The piece looks Indian made, with typical Indian sterling silver details. Assuming they are dyed pearls, I don't think you should pay more than $20 if buying to sell, preferably less.

I can only speak from the European market though. You are closer to India, and the UAE import a lot from India, so maybe your buying price should be much lower.

 

To be blunt... No. Not antique. Not worth $3,500. And at that price all would be money-losing if your intention was resale.

you do not need any of these things......
someone......just wants your money !!

 

$3,500USD??

Absolutely NOT.

For one thing, none of that stuff is worth that much.

For another, none of that stuff appears to be what it claims to be.

Turn around, and RUN AWAY. Someone is after your money.

You will not make any money with this, if that's your intention, and sure as hell, are not making any kind of bargain.

I've handled loads of antique ivory, and while it's tricky to sell, it can be sold, but that said, what you have there does not look like ivory. Looks like bone, and bone is dirt-cheap.

 

I agree.

Or shell, also dirt cheap.

 

That ‘someone’ is NOT your friend!

 

Ask and see if you can have the whole lot for 3,500 cents, instead.

And even then, I wouldn't buy it.
