In general, no we do not purchase gold-filled nor gold-plated items. There are a few rare circumstances when a gold-filled or gold-plated item has significant historical significance and in those situations, we will most likely be interested in purchasing those items.

At Tapper's Gold Exchange in Twelve Oaks Mall, we love buying sterling silver silverware sets, sterling silver platters, sterling silver pitchers, sterling silver serving pieces, sterling silver candle sticks, and basically anything else that is sterling silver. You should know that many sterling silver housewares have some type of wax or resin filler to intentionally increase the weight of the item and when we purchase the items we are required to deduct the weight of these filler items. When purchasing sterling silver housewares, we are only interested in the value of the sterling silver itself and not the utilitarian value of the item. Please note that we DO NOT BUY silverware that is either made of stainless steel or silver-plate.

Yes, we purchase natural-mined diamonds at Tapper's Gold Exchange in Twelve Oaks Mall. We will evaluate your diamond during our consultation. If you have a certified diamond, please include your certification or appraisal. We are very interested in buying most diamonds, but please be aware that there are certain diamonds that either due to current market factors, or our current inventory position that would prevent us from making an offer to purchase. In addition, when bringing in a piece of jewelry with several small diamonds set in the piece, it is often in the client’s best interest to just include the value of the diamonds in the piece of jewelry’s overall weight, rather than face the labor expense of removing these diamonds and purchasing them as a separate lot.
