Manhattan Buyers

I had an excellent experience selling a pair of rings at Manhattan Buyers. Arthur Abrams appraised my rings and quoted me a price significantly higher than another buyer I had visited around the corner. He was very personable and real. He was easy to talk to and explained in detail about the gold and diamonds that comprised the rings. Very knowledgable. Also, we struck up a conversation about martial arts which is something we discovered we’re both passionate about. I highly recommend Manhattan Buyers!

All I got to say is great service, fair price and very professional. Very legit, definitely coming back to this place! Thanks arthur

The kind people here literally saved me. It could not have been a better experience. I was terrified of getting taken and embarrassed at needing to sell my jewelry. But I was two weeks away from my son’s college graduation and his diploma was on hold because I still owed the tution. Manhattan buyers actually cared, explained the worth of each piece and even advised me what not to sell!
WHAT I COULD NOT PART WITH, they gave me a loan on …
I got very fair prices and generous loan terms and was treated with the utmost respect.
Many thanks

I walked into Manhattan Buyers recently to sell a lovely vintage mid 1960s Rolex timepiece. It was in very good condition and though I had overpaid for it originally, I had a good idea of what it sells for on the market. I was checking my options to see what’s the fastest and easiest way to convert it into cash.
I found the location easily enough and was asked to wait until they could see me. About five minutes later I was invited in by one of the gentlemen. The folks here were very nice and polite. The gentleman looked at my watch while making small talk.
He made some observations about the watch, some of which made me think that he didn’t believe I was very well informed, like making a point of noting the plastic crystal on the watch. Plastic/​Acrylic was used on Rolex watches of that era until they first starting using sapphire crystal in the early 1970s with the # 5100, # 1530, # 1630, and #1831. They didn’t get around to using sapphire exclusively until the late 1980s. This type of stuff was a turnoff as I think he figured I was ignorant about watches and he offered me $ 800 cash for it. I declined, and about three minutes later he increased his offer by 50%, to $ 1200.
We were getting closer to a fair price, but this was a further turnoff to me. There was such a large disparity in the offer, all within five minutes of walking in. I politely declined again, saying the watch could at least have a good trade value with another collector, and I might go that route. He was interested and asked what I was looking for, and I mentioned a watch by model number. He looked it up and gave me good advice on the price, but he didn’t have any in stock.
I thanked him and left. I was treated politely and fairly well, and was given very good advice on a fair price for the watch I was seeking, but I had already taken a couple of bids on the watch I was selling and they were both over $ 1200. I ultimately sold the timepiece directly to another collector for $ 2300.
I passed on Manhattan Buyers, but I might return for a purchase if they have exactly what I am looking for at a good price.

I was very pleased with my experience at Manhattan Buyers this past weekend. I believe I was given fair value for a used Cartier ring and I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of money I received for 2 gold bracelets and Tiffany jewelry that I had not worn in years. I would definitely go back if I had more jewelry to sell.

Alright Unilocalers. Ima start off this review with firmly acknowledging that I have a finite knowledge of watches and gold, in general. However, I did learn some things from friends and family in the jewelry business along the way.
About half a year ago, I had in my possession a Rolex watch i had recieved from my father as a gift and was looking to sell it. Why? I needed money to buy a wedding ring and times were tough. I knew what it cost and definitely wanted to get the full value for it. So, I talked to a jewelry people I was referred to and they seemed like shady characters.
At one point, I gave up on selling the watch because everyone was trying to low ball and hustle me. So, a few weeks passed and one of my boys suggested I go see one more guy, Arthur ABRAMOV @ Manhattan Buyers, on 5^th avenue. My friend went with me and made the introduction and I took it from there.
Prior to going here, I did some research and was interested to see that this place has been rrviewd in the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg News and other revered publications. So, I definitely had my hopes up at this place and getting the value I wanted for my rollie.
Meeting Arthur was also a good experience. He was very professional and knowledgable in his respectable field. He even taught me some things about the watch I had and explained to me about different merchandise he has in the store. I appreciated his approach because he took his time to talk to me and let me explain to him that I wanted to sell this watch because I wanted to use the money to get a wedding ring for my girl.
In the end, we completed the transaction. I got what I hoped for you. Was definitely sad to sell the watch but priorities come first. I was so happy with the service here that I asked ARTHUR to help me find a good ring and a good price (which he did).
I’ve told him this before but ill say it again. Thank you for the help and you definitely have a lifetime customer. Shout out to the whole staff over there too, chilled out and cool folks.
I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND COMING HERE FOR ALL YOUR WATCH, JEWELRY, GOLD NEEDS.
Dueces, Unilocalers.

I had some gold coins to sell and was lucky enough to find Manhattan Buyers Inc. The gentlemen I met with was extremely knowledgeable, honest and a pleasure to deal with. If you have jewelry, watches or anything of value they will give you a true and honest appraisal. No pressure.

The best guys ever to deal with. Super cool, super understanding, and they understand the value of dollar and couldn’t be more honest or accommodating. They have my biz for life.

So let me start off by saying I have never sold my jewelry before. I like most feel an attachment to something that I invested in and or like. So when I chose to sell my ring I was at a loss for how, where and who was reliable and fair. I was then referred to Manhattan Buyers by a local jeweler in the diamond district and I am so thankful. The experience was great and most importantly professional, informative, and easy. It went so well I thought to myself I could do this again. Instead of running to my family if I as in a bind for money, this is was surely a better way to go. private and reasonable.
Their office suite was nice and I mention this since one business looked like I had opened a kids closet (yes a mess). And pretty much fit a partial view of the image of the experience I expected to find when I ventured to sell my jewelry. Overall I highly recommend this business and Arthur as well as his colleagues who made the experience the best I could of hoped for. The sale worked within my expectation and bottom-​line price.

Fair and reasonable service, straightforward and no BS. Would return to sell other things.

Had some old jewelry I wanted to get rid of– was in and out in ten minutes. I thought they offered me a fair price and they gave me a higher offer than the first place I went to so all in all it was a good experience.

I’ve been there 2x in the past 6 months, bringing in selective pieces of jewelry from my mothers estate, They have treated me with kindness and compassion each time and in fact remembered me, the conversation is always pleasant and the transaction is quick and NO PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO SELL, had I chosen to sell nothing or even a piece or 2 I am confident I would’ve received the same treatment, in fact I was asked to come back with the rest of the items we discussed, NOT to sell them, but so they could be valued. the price they offer is always fair and more over they will take the time to tel you WHY this piece is worth X while this other piece is worth Y. Due to the time I have been arriving I’ve not been able to avail myself of the scotch some other reviewers have mentioned, maybe next time, and yes there will be a next time! I sincerely hope you will consider them for all your needs. Again great service, friendly people and a very fair payout.

Honest, fast service, courteous and professional. Everyone in the office is really nice and they make you feel welcome. The entire process took about 15 min and they were able to pay straight away.

So happy I went with Manhattan Buyers to sell my stuff! The owner is great and very knowledgeable! I sold a cartier roadster and an old broken chain and got about what I expected. I did some research before going and was glad that my research wasn’t wasted on someone who was all talk and no knowledge. Definitely doing buisness here again!

Total Bullshitters!
«We pay up to 100% rappaport on diamonds.» What a lie!
I sent in a 7 gram platinum ½ ct. F VS1 solitaire. The girl called me and asked if I would like to sell it for $ 255. That’s not even metal value.
I wondered how many little old ladies these guys had to rob to get rich.
Don’t waste your time!

I had a very good experience here. I feel like I knew the worth of most of what I had and didn’t expect too much but was offered a fair price. The person I met with was a gentleman, and even suggested I not part with a few pieces I was attached to because he didn’t think they would be worth losing. I thought I saw several good reviews here which helped me decide to try it, but those reviews are gone. I trust these folks and they made me feel at ease. I will return in the future.

Exactly as you might expect from a gold and jewelry buyer in the diamond district. Barely disguised con artistry with a smile. My advice is to know the precise value of what you have before you go in as they will nickel and dime you into a pulp.

I’m a recent graduate of one of New York’s most expensive grad schools with a humanities degree, so of course I am broke and jobless. To help pay the bills, I went to Manhattan Buyers Inc., to try to sell off some jewelry. I ended up selling them a couple of rings, but kept one to see if I could get a better offer. After checking around (since I know absolutely nothing about the value of jewelry), I found that Manhattan Buyers, Inc. had given me the best offer by far. I went back about a week later and made the transaction. I got to deal with both partners in the two times I was there. They are honest, to-​the-​point, and very friendly and helpful. If you are strapped for cash or just want to sell some stuff, I highly recommend Manhattan Buyers, Inc. over anywhere else. They offer more money and will not try to play games with you or cheat you. Thanks guys!
