Here's what our clients had to say about our mobile jewelry appraisal service ...

Michael was a true professional! The appraisal was relatively painless and swift, given the level of detail included in the report, and Michael made the process a pleasure. The report and his professional opinion were invaluable and well worth the cost! I would definitely recommend his services!

Michael was referred to me by Robbins jewelry. He called me back immediately and even came to our house on a Sunday!! He is very reasonably priced and very good at this job. I highly recommend him for appraisal as well as for helping any of those guys out there looking for a good diamond for their bride to be!

We were referred to Michael Rogers by a local jewelry business. He came to our home; advised us on what was worth appraising and what was not; and gave us the appraisal documentation that we needed. Not only was it a pleasure to work with him, but our insurance company (USAA) informed us that the documents Michael Rogers created were among the most thorough and useful ones that they had ever received. Highly recommended.

After upgrading my wedding ring our insurance company needed an appraisal to add coverage for it to our policy. We were given an appraisal when we made the purchase at Unicorn Jewelers in Rancho Bernardo but I have heard that jewelry stores often inflate their appraisals to make it look like they have given a better deal. I decided to call an independent appraiser to verify the value of the purchase we made at Unicorn and also to make sure we weren't over insuring the ring. I found Michael Rogers of Gem Secrets Gemological Services on the internet after searching for an appraiser that makes house calls. I did not want to drop my ring off for an appraisal for fear of the stone being swapped. Michael came out to my house and appraised my ring. I am happy to report that his appraisal was almost identical to the one I was given by Unicorn when we purchased the ring. I did not show Michael the report I had for my ring so all of the stats he confirmed he detected on his own. This proved to me that Unicorn Jewelers was absolutely honest in their dealings with us and also that Michael really knows his stuff. I would definitely recommend Michael to anyone who needs a certified appraiser. He was professional and friendly and gave me a detailed report the day of the appraisal.

Fantastic!!!! I needed someone to appraise my ring for insurance purposes. I had my grandmas ring appraised and decided to use her diamond in my ring!! Well the company I bought my ring from didn't appraise items that were not bought through them. But they recommended Michael Rogers!! I couldn't be happier to have gone through him!! Not only does your ring never leave your sight. He is funny and so warm and friendly. He provides you with a very descriptive appraisal and gives you the complete specs of your ring and its inclusions. I am amazed!!!! You need someone to come to you, he is your guy!!!!!!! His price was WAY cheaper than a local company I used before and he is mobile and you get your ring back immediately. Please use him!!! SOOOOO HAPPPY!!!!

Thank you again Michael!!!
