Mother’s day gifts

What are you getting Mom this year? People often find it difficult to find the perfect Mother’s Day gift, especially when it comes to giving something unique and special. Flowers and chocolates are always welcome, but maybe it’s time for something different – why not consider giving her a special jewelry item?

Get mom something she will never take back to the store. A personalized jewelry item is not only unique but it is something very special that your mom will definitely treasure forever. It is not something that will lose value over time. When it comes to items like jewelry, precious metals and even rare coins, these items are valuable and they can even be passed on from one generation to the next. This is also why these items are so valuable; they carry a special meaning and it is definitely the perfect gift to celebrate any occasion.

Get her something that can hold its value and mom can pass it on as a keepsake. Passing something on to the next generation is not only valuable but also a great way to show appreciation and remember the loved one. This is why mothers usually pass on important jewelry items like wedding rings and rare coins to their children and grandchildren. Give your mom the perfect gift – a unique or personalized ring, pendant or rare coin that she can treasured for decades and passed on to someone else when the time comes.

Investing In Rare Coins And Precious Metals

It’s important to have a diversified investment portfolio. You never know what the future may hold. This is why proper investment planning is essential to your financial success. People don’t plan to fail, they fail to plan. Rare coins and precious metals (Bullion: Gold, silver, platinum, and palladium) have proven to be a great investment choice and are definitely a great option to consider if you are looking to invest money for the future.

Most financial planners recommend that their clients invest 5% to 15% in rare coins and precious metals as a hedge against inflation, devaluation of the U.S. Dollar and world instability. Precious metals could be great investment choices as you can use them to guard against unforeseen inflation and the devaluation of currency– while reducing the risk in your investment portfolio. The value of precious metals is tied to the world current market price and is based on the usefulness and demand for the materials themselves. Precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium are likely to increase in value over time. This is why investors choose to invest in rare coins and precious metals because they want the profit potential to increase the value of their overall investment portfolio.

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Instead of focusing purely on traditional investments, turn your attention to gold and silver; knowing that the different types of coins available will make it easier to choose an investment. Gold and silver bullion coins are great choices for investments, but do not confuse them with collector coins.

We will make a plan that fits your needs, not ours. One of the best benefits of investing in rare coins and precious (bullion) metals, is that you will have the flexibility to choose the investment you want as well as how much you want to invest. We offer a variety of items at very competitive prices, allowing you to find the item(s) you want at an amount of money that is comfortable for you. This is a great investment opportunity that is perfect for anyone who wants to add more profit potential to their investment portfolio while reducing overall risk.

Tap into our 23 years of knowledge and experience to give you unbiased information. We are experts when it comes to our recommendations of gold, silver and other rare coins and precious (bullion) metals. We will provide you with honest and accurate information.

Affordable birth or christening gifts

Mark the moment with a coin that documents the special occasion. Whether you are celebrating the arrival of your new bundle of joy, or looking for the perfect christening gift, items like rare coins and precious metals are perfect for these memorable occasions. With a valuable jewelry piece or even a historic rare coin to mark the occasion, you will have all the more reason to celebrate and make the most of these great moments.

A toy can lose value and may end up in the trash. Although this usually seems like a perfect gift to give to someone who is celebrating the birth of their child, keep in mind that these items won’t last forever and they will likely end up in the trash or be given away to a charity. This is why it is a great idea to give a precious gift like a personalized jewelry item or a rare coin to make the moment a memorable one; allowing your loved ones to treasure the memory forever.

Clothes become outgrown and eventually get donated. Clothes are often practical gifts and infants quickly outgrow many of the clothes before they even have a chance to wear them.

A gold jewelry item is definitely valuable and will definitely fit in perfectly with any occasion that you want to celebrate. You can choose between items like necklaces, pendants, bracelets, earrings and more.

Don’t get cheated at your garage sale

Are you selling jewelry or rare coins at your garage sale? Watch out for that undercover dealer who will try to underpay you. Unscrupulous gold and other dealers often frequent garage sales looking for items for which the seller may not know the true value. While there is nothing illegal about this, it is a dishonest practice that tries to take advantage of people’s lack of information and knowledge.

Many times these dealers do not own businesses and try to buy things cheap from unsuspecting people who do not know the real price. Even a small gold chain may be worth up to $150 or more but the seller may be offering only $10 for the piece in a box of other worthless pieces, because the seller may think it is not gold. Sometimes, the dealer will justify the lower price because of some minor flaw or the condition of the metal. However, the item is often worth far more than their offer based on the weight of metal, alone!

They may give you the impression that they are going to use the item, when in fact they are just reselling it. Whether or not the buyer intends to use or resell the item, you deserve a fair price. And the dealer needs to identify himself as a dealer to you. A deep discounted price is a sign of dishonesty, and you should hold off because you can get a better price from an honest dealer.

I identify myself as a dealer, because I have a reputation to uphold. I am not a random individual, touring garage sales. I am a business owner and a member of many organizations like the Burbank Chamber of Commerce and I have an A rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). I take pride in my reputation as an upstanding businessman. Don’t take my word for it. See what my customers say about me on Yelp.

Come in for a free verbal appraisal to know your item’s true worth. Bring your items to our office, and I will appraise them in person. I’ll walk you through the process, explaining how and why the item is worth what it is. Then, if you’re satisfied with my appraisal, I will buy the item(s) from you, and you will be offered a no obligation fair price.

Are you, or someone you know, interested in selling old jewelry or rare coins? We also offer up to 15% commission on jewelry sales when you refer your friends and family. Please call Paul Albarian today at (818) 827-7152 to set up an appointment and get a free evaluation.

Looking for a special anniversary gift?

Don’t get overcharged for jewelry. Why do we pay so much for jewelry? Because we think the precious metals and precious stones justify the expense, and because jewelry is a “luxury” item. But jewelry doesn’t need to be nearly as expensive as it is. In fact, most of the cost of a piece of jewelry is profit for the jeweler because it’s sold at “retail price”.

The typical markup for jewelry, especially at the mall, is 10-20 times the base price. There’s no doubt that gold is valuable (at the time of writing, gold is worth more than $1339 per ounce). But the value of the materials, and even the skilled labor involved in making jewelry, doesn’t come close to justifying the cost. If you buy a ring at a jeweler in the mall, you aren’t just adding a ring to the family jewelry collection – you’re probably adding an extra “0” to the price tag, too!

Buy quality jewelry from an upstanding business man. At Paul Albarian & Associates, we pride ourselves on excellent customer service and honest, expert advice. We will guide you through the process of selecting and buying a piece of jewelry, and making sure that you have a piece you’re happy with at a fair price. Just as buying a piece of jewelry for a loved one is an investment in your relationship, we consider selling jewelry an investment in our relationship with our clients.

We sell estate jewelry at great discounts – including Cartier, Tiffany, and Rolex. We maintain an inventory of brand-name and bespoke jewelry, which we can sell to you at a great price. Moreover, we acquire most of our jewelry through estate sales and we have a broad inventory selection than most stores. This can help you focus on a fashion that suits you the best.

We can have new jewelry made for you based on a picture or sketch, again at a great discount. Not satisfied with what you can find in the stores, or want a piece of jewelry made to particular specifications? We can help! Bring us a photo or sketch of your desired piece, and we will work local artisans to create a custom piece of jewelry for you.

Investing in precious metals as a hedge against inflation

Precious metal prices usually increase alongside inflation, meaning inflation does not reduce the value of the precious metals. Inflation lowers the value of the US Dollar (and most world currencies), meaning it gradually takes more money to buy the same thing. Precious metal prices usually adjust for inflation. This means one ounce of gold can still buy pretty much the same quality and quantity of things it could buy over 100 years ago.

Precious metals are part of a balanced investment portfolio; most financial advisors suggest that their clients put 5 to 15 percent of their investment portfolio in precious metals. Stocks, bonds, real estate, and other investment vehicles are all subject to different market forces and world events. Putting too much of your money into one investment type can put your wealth at risk. But dividing your portfolio between different investment types limits your exposure to risk.

Precious metals are investments that protect against inflation, the devaluation of the US Dollar, and world instability. If you had $10,000 in an investment account in 1960, you were doing pretty well. A single family home in Burbank, California cost about $22,000 – a ratio of 2.2 times the value of your $10,000. If you had $10,000 of gold (approx. 283.5oz) in 1960 , the same amount of gold today would be worth approximately $373,725.50 – a much better nest egg! And that single family home is worth less than $600,000 today; a lot less than $822,196.10 (2.2 times $373,725.50).

Paul Albarian has over 23 years of experience in helping our clients select the best precious metal investments. In the past 23 years our clients’ portfolio, from their investment in rare coins and precious metals, has increased five to ten times. Their investment had increased more in 2011 when gold went to an all time high of $1920 per ounce. We believe in honest customer service and transparent pricing. We work with you to identify the best investment for your particular situation. Many gold dealers just want to make as much money as possible that day– We believe in building relationships with our clients, which means we always offer fair prices and keep your long-term interests in mind. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority.

Our prices are available on our website, and we will beat any verifiable price from a competitor. Visit our website to see the current prices for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.
