Step 2: Utilise Our Concierge Services for GIA Grading

If the quick estimate aligns with your expectations, the next step is to get your diamond GIA-certified for a more accurate quotation. DMP offers concierge services to facilitate this process. We guide you through the GIA grading procedure, helping you get the most trusted and comprehensive analysis of your diamond. This step is crucial in not only establishing your diamond’s true market value but also in attracting serious, committed buyers.

Step 3: List Your Diamond as Verified and Authenticated

Once your diamond is GIA-certified, it's eligible for listing as a verified and authenticated gemstone on DMP. This means it can be shipped immediately to the buyer upon purchase. The advantage of this quick-to-ship status is that it makes your listing more appealing to buyers seeking immediate possession, expediting your sale process.
