A different way for retailer jewelers and dealers to buy & sell diamonds
Harmony Diamond Auctions are online diamond auctions for the trade, featuring loose or mounted diamonds, 0.40 carats and up.
Retailers, pawn brokers and dealers alike benefit from an additional revenue stream by selling secondary market goods or flipping out of older inventory. Buyers – qualified and vetted members of the trade – get great deals.
Items are sent to Hoover & Strong, and independently inspected, graded and photographed. All items include detailed descriptions, grading, images, 3D photos, and cert info.
Buyers bid and are notified if they are the highest bidder on the item. At the close of the auction, sellers are presented with the highest bids and can accept or reject the offers.
Auctions run every 2 weeks, Monday – Wednesday. Final payments to sellers are processed within the same week.
All Polygon members are pre-approved to participate, and can access auctions on the Polygon member platform.
