- “There's still value in broken jewelry and worn-out jewelry. There's gold, there are the stones, there's all the different things that are in it. And sometimes pieces can be remade and repurposed only using parts of it, not even the whole thing.” - Jon Bragman
- "We've done lots of appraisals where people have sorted their jewelry, real jewelry, costume or fashion jewelry. And when we look through the fashion and costume jewelry, we find real stuff that would have gotten tossed away that shouldn't be." - Jon Bragman
- “Some things require a little more in-depth research or a closer look, better inspection, whatever you want to call it. And I would presume it's the same with jewelry, especially with jewelry. It's very intricate. It's small.” - Raquel Ramirez
