Premier Diamond Buying Company Launches Enhanced Selling Experience and Redesigned New Website & Mobile Platforms

NEW YORK, Dec. 18, 2014

PRNewswire — WP Diamonds, a trusted global leader in the jewelry resale market and one of the largest online buyers of diamonds in the U.S., today announced the launch of its new watch and designer jewelry buying services.

To coincide with the launch, the Company has also announced the debut of a redesigned, new website, WPDiamonds.com just in time for the holidays. The site allows consumers to sell their fine jewelry, watches and diamonds quickly and securely in just a few steps. The new website provides customers a fully-integrated, luxury selling experience, access to personalized customer service and a seamless and discreet appraisal process. The website is also mobile-friendly, making selling jewelry and diamonds even easier for busy consumers on the go. From loose diamonds to engagement rings, designer jewelry and watches, WPDiamonds.com gives sellers the opportunity to receive exceptional value and quick appraisals.

The watch and jewelry buying services are led by Tom Pozsgay and Michael Lebowitz, respectively. Mr. Pozsgay has over 35 years of experience in the pre-owned luxury watch market and joins WP Diamonds from Tourneau, where he was Vice President of Certified Pre-Owned Watches. Mr. Lebowitz has served as Jewelry Director with White Pine Trading since 2013 and has over 40 years of retail, wholesale and appraisal experience in the jewelry industry.

“WP Diamonds was a pioneer in the diamond recycling business and with consumer demand for selling jewelry continuing to grow, we are excited to launch our new global watch and designer jewelry buying services,” said Benjamin Burne, CEO of White Pine Trading LLC. “And, with the launch of our technologically advanced, new website and mobile capabilities, we are completely devoted to making the jewelry selling process as transparent, seamless and quick as possible – both online and offline.”

WP Diamonds, which traded over $100 million in diamonds last year, has extensive knowledge of the intrinsic value of watches and jewelry and buys a diverse selection of designer and estate pieces. Fine watch brands include Rolex, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Breitling, Jaeger Lecoultre, and Omega, among others. Jewelry brands range from Tiffany and Cartier to vintage and antique period pieces.

Consumers interested in selling their diamond, watches or jewelry can visit WPDiamonds.com and fill out the private online valuation form. Once complete, customers will immediately receive an estimate from an accredited WP Diamonds appraiser. Customers are then directed to ship their jewelry to WP Diamonds at no charge via FedEx overnight delivery, or they can also schedule an appointment at any WP Diamonds location worldwide. Once the item(s) is received and assessed by WP Diamonds, a formal offer is made. If the offer is accepted, payment is forwarded within 24 hours. Consumers who do not accept the offer will have their items returned at no charge.
