    Hi,
    I have an engagement ring which I no longer require + am just wondering if anybody knows of jewellers in the Limerick area that would buy it from me. It has 4 diamonds so cash for gold is not an option + it cost about 4000 euros.
    Thanks in Advance

    Ring gleesons goldsmiths in Shannon who deals in diamonds as well as being a ring manufacturer.

    OP asked where the ring can be sold. Why are ye saying give it back to the buyer when ye have no idea what the situation is? Maybe the OP is the buyer. OP you could get it valued and put it on adverts. Plenty of engagement rings for sale there.

    I agree.

    I'm sure that some engagement rings are being sold too because of mortgage arrears. I'd hate to part with my engagement ring but if it was choice between keeping a nice ring or saving my home I'd let it go.

    OP - I recommend getting an independent valuation and putting it on Adverts too.

    The OP asked a very simple question. The next person who wants to make what they think is a smart arse, funny, or frankly judgemental sounding comment towards the OP gets infracted.

    Nowhere in limerick will buy it.Theyre only interested in the gold.Get it valued and put it up on adverts/donedeal.It should have some kind of certificate with it anyway stating its value when it was bought.

    Limerick Auction Rooms will put it up for auction for you or find a buyer. And you will get more than just scrap value. Methinks sometimes jewelers around the city buy rings for "scrap" and then sell them on again for 10-fold profit.

    There are a few antique jewellery stores in Limerick. They must buy their stock somewhere presumably?

    Can't recall the name of the one on Roches Street, but it's opposite Moody Cow Milkshakes.

    You could also try Pauline Fenton on Ellen Street.
