I have sold jewelry in the past, but only in person and was a little concerned about having to ship expensive jewelry, especially to a different state. But when my in town jeweler wouldnt buy one of my items I decided to look to see if I could find a buyer online. I reached out to a couple places and Mike at Cook County Buyers Inc. made me feel the most confident about the process. He was thorough, provided proof of jewelry appraisal, offered what might be the highest prices I could get for the jewelry and communicated well and quickly throughout the process.The next time I have jewelry to sell I will go to Cook County Buyers first!I made a mistake thinking the jewelry was bigger, so he sent this picture to show me their actual size. I appreciate his communication and professionalism!

Dont even waste your time else where! Working with Mike was top notch. I received 3 different quotes for my diamond and Mike beat them not only in price, but honesty and professionalism. He saw details in my diamond that many others did not. With his expertise and experience, Mike makes the resale experience pressure free and comfortable. I will be taking more jewelry in! Thank you Mike!!

This place was great. I found it via a Google search, text Mike, and, as stated on his website, he responded within an hour. He offered a fair price, patiently gave me all the details of what would happen if I chose to move forward, and then promptly followed through on everything he said. I live in Texas and was a little concerned about mailing my timepiece across the country, but it was a breeze using his pre-printed FedEx label and detailed shipping instructions. I may have text him a little “too” much, but I would never know it from him because he always promptly responded, and was so nice, patient, and professional. Bottom line - I highly recommend!

My husband is the one who took our things in. Overall this was an exceptionally pleasant experience. We were paid much more than we expected. I’m super grateful and we will definitely return here. Thank you so much for helping us out!

Working with Mike was effortless. He is knowledgeable and fair. Mike made the selling process so easy. It is not always easy to let family heirlooms go. His kindness and professionalism made the transactions simpleTHANK YOU MIKETerri

Mike was very easy and good natured. Great to work with and gave me a fair price! Whats more is that we did business even though I live out of state in Nashville. He makes it very easy too ship your stuff to him and can pay right away. Id check Mike out right away!

I had a Double Eagle gold coin, chain and a simple diamond and gold ring to sell. Mike was personable, professional and with the technology he uses to weigh and grade the gold, everything is right there to see. The price he gave me for the coin was on the high side of what I saw on line. Very quick transaction.

Mike was very professional and made the process very easy. I contacted him about an appraisal for my ring and he was quick to respond. After receiving a quote, I met with him where he evaluated my ring in person and gave me a good price.

Was really great working with Michael to get a couple pieces evaluated. He was very quick to respond and gave very fair pricing for my pieces. He made the process very easy. I will go to him again in the future!

When you are in the market to sell your fine jewelry, you want to find someone who is professional and experienced. I contacted Mike, provided him the necessary photos of my Rolex for review and made an appointment to see him the next day. Mike offered me a very fair price initially via text and did not try to lower his price when I went into his office to formally sell him my watch. He is a man of his word and gives you the option of receiving your payment in cash or check. I highly recommend Mike.

Mike was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. No pressure, just great information and took the time to explain everything.Super nice guy, honest and kind.I will definitely keep him in mind for the future.Thanks again Mike.

Mike came highly recommended by a local jeweler. Mike responded to my text almost immediately and after sending him some information, was able to give us a rough estimate of the items we were interested in selling. Scheduling an appointment was extremely easy. Mike was quick in responding and was able to meet with us within a few days. He is very nice, honest, and it was a pleasure to work with him. He gave us a detailed, itemized list of what we sold and explained everything. We would definitely do business with him again.

This deal was done out of state by fed ex it was so easy as I have never done anything like this before. They sent me all the mailing info and preparations. It was done on a very timely basis. It was so easy I’m rounding up all my jewelry and sending it to them. I would recommend their services to anyone. Very trustworthy and prompt. Got my money same day !

Mike is as trustworthy as one can be! We did a transaction together a few weeks ago and it stress free and seamless. I will recommend Mike to all my friends and family! 😊

A reputable jeweler recommended Cook County Buyers. I met with Mike who is a top-notch professional and very knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and I never felt rushed. I was very pleased with a very smooth transaction. It was a pleasure doing business with Mike! Highly recommended!

As an out of state seller I was apprehensive about sending jewelry via FedEx. The process was smooth and efficient. Cook County Buyers gave me a fair price. Highly recommended and I’d do it again!

Great experience…especially since I live in PA.Owner-Mike sent FedEx label so I could send jewelry…I received payment in few days. So easy.

Another great experience working with Mike. I was able to use his out of town Fed Ex process and had a response the same day items were received.

I had great communication with Mike from California, and my purchase arrived safe and secure from Illinois via fedex. Overall great experience and a five star seller. I love the necklace!

I had a very good experience selling my diamond to Cook County Buyer. I feel that Mike was informative, thorough, and honest.

I have done about 20-25 transaction over the course of the last 5 years with Cook county both buying and selling.Both times they are very smooth and easy!I appreciate the work and best wishes!

Mike was awesome! My wife and I showed up and I wasn’t aware to schedule an appointment in advance with him. So I called his number, he answered promptly and within 10 minutes made himself available at his office to review our jewelry and coins. Talk about great customer service!!! He is very pleasant, fun and easy going to interact with. He was very straightforward in terms of pricing and his margins, costs, etc. He spent a great deal of quality time detailing each of our pieces and thoroughly answered any questions we had. We decided to go to him based and the large number of 5 star reviews. He did not disappoint and our experience with him was very professional, honest and pleasant. In the end we felt that he was very fair in his pricing and we were very happy with what he offered us. Highly recommended!

We were very pleased with Mike at Cook County Buyers. He responsed immediately to our text. It was evident from first conversation, that he would give us trustworthy information. We met with Mike and he was both professional and honest. All information was upfront and we had an excellent experience at his office. Mike was very easy to work with and we are very pleased to have found a buyer that we can trust.

I needed help with jewelry, silver flatware and coins. I was thrilled to find one person to help with all three. Very knowledgable, quick, good value. Will definitely be back with other estate needs.

I was referred to Cook County Buyers by Wahl Jewelers. I was super nervous as a single woman, to take my expensive engagement ring and tennis bracelet into a stranger, but Mike made me comfortable from the moment I walked in. He kept me involved in every step that he took to come to the price of each of my items, making me feel that I was not getting taken for a ride. I was very happy with the experience and the result. I will use Mike at Cook County Buyers again and refer my friends and family to him.

I was nervous about selling my stone since Ive never sold jewelry before. I did my homework and researched what the offers should be. Mikes offer was dead on what it should have been. It was an easy and enjoyable transaction. I learned a bit more after talking with him and he provided a referral to someone to assist with replacing the diamond in my band. He responded quickly and was on time (big thing for me). I highly recommend CCB and WILL be definitely working with Mike again.

Excellent service. I made contact with Mike on a Monday by text, each text was responded to in a very timely, professional yet personal manner. A Fed Ex shipping label was provided that same day and the items shipped without issue. I was notified when the package arrived on Wednesday and kept throughly informed regarding the items and the assessed value that was consistent with the estimated value prior to shipping. Payment for the items was made and received in my bank within 48 hours of the package being shipped, the same date the package was received by Mike. The entire process flowed seamlessly and without flaw. I would absolutely recommend the services of this business.

Mike was amazing! My uncle was liquidating our families assets and we made an appointment with Mike. Im so happy that we chose to go to him. He was so very warm and welcoming during our meeting. He made it feel like we were sitting with a close friend instead of like it was just business. I will definitely be going to see him again if its needed and I will be recommending him to others. Thank you again Mike.

Awesome!! Working with Michael was a very positive experience. He is personal, professional and very knowledgeable. Felt that he was thorough and fair with his pricing. I highly recommend him and will do business with him in the future. Susie

Mike was great. I brought my family’s silver to him. He told me what it was worth and I decided to keep it. He did not charge me. I tipped him for his time because I grew up working service jobs.The best thing about Mike is he is honest and builds your trust in him instantly. Stand up guy in today’s world.Thank you Mike!

Mike at Cook County Buyers took a weight off my mind! I needed to sell my mother’s large jewelry and silver collection. I was encouraged by Mike’s experience and excellent reviews. I was well aware that selling jewelry isn’t the same as figures you get from insurance appraisals and we agreed to meet. Mike was very transparent how he weighed andvalued each piece. Within an hour, we agreed on all the prices and I walked away with a check that was good and fair in my eyes. Thank you Mike, for making this difficult task so easy and rewarding!

Mike educated me on the actual value of my engagement ring and I really appreciated the real deal. He also informed me on how to make a good jewelry purchase in the future. I feel he gave me a fair price for my ring based on its specifications and would recommend his evaluation to anyone interested in selling their jewelry.Nice meeting you and thanks again for sharing your YouTube video Mike!Karla Harris

I had bought a beautiful Emerald ring from Cook county buyers with the idea of replacing the cubic zirconia in it for a diamond that I have had with a lot of sentimental value. Mike the owner of Cook county was so helpful. I live in California and he lives in Chicago. None of that mattered. He set up a FedEx for me to send back the Emerald ring and my beloved diamond back to him so that he could take it to an expert jeweler. I’ve got back my ring, it is beautiful. Everything was done perfectly. There was very little cost on my part. He went way above and beyond. Again thanks for everything.

Mike was a pleasure to work with, we did not have an appointment and when we called Mike responded immediately and arrived within 5 minutes. The entire process was painless, and he gave us tremendous prices on our jewelry. Will definitely go back and use Cook County Buyers again!

Read Mikes reviews and decided to give him a call. We met and he went through all my jewelry and diamonds thoroughly and professionally. He gave me the best price compared to 2 other jewelers I visited. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone! It was a pleasure dealing with him. Thanks again Mike for your help!

Great experience! I recommend it highly. Mike is fair and makes you feel like your not getting ripped off. He explained why my diamonds were worth the amount and shows you in the loop and on the computer any imperfections.He is quick and doesnt waste your time!Im pleased with the amount he purchased my diamonds for and he knows the business!!Definitely good decision that I went to Cook County Buyers!

Had a great experience. Great service and I found a real treasure! A Friend referred me, she had shopped around some jewelry she was selling the week before, these guys had the best offer.

Was very timely with a response and estimated offer. Very friendly and reasonable.

Been working with Michael for quite some time now. Always pays the most and his prices cant be beat! Definitely recommend working with Cook County Buyers!

An unexpected pleasant experience. I have never sold gold and was a bit apprehensive. Wasnt sure how to trust the prices given. I went to another gold buyer first to have some reference point. Then I went to see Mike. I had a gold Krugerrand, some gold jewelry and some diamonds. Mike walked me through step by step on each piece and explained its value. When it came to the diamonds, I received an excellent education -more than the 4 basics . His prices were a bit better so I know they were extremely fair. There is no reason for my to go elsewhere in the future. Going home to see if I have more to sell!

Had a exceptional experience selling a loose diamond with Mike! He gave me the most reasonable and fair price of any dealer in the area for miles! He was incredibly personable, straight to the point and was honestly a pleasure to talk to. I highly recommend him for all of your fine jewelry needs. Thanks a ton Mike!

Michael was super nice! Provided an estimated quote by looking at pictures I had sent him through email. He was able to give me a fair price for my jewelry. I would recommend going to him!

Mike was wonderful! I had a bunch of silver pieces, as well as some earrings that were missing mates, and he made the selling process effortless. His office is pristine and welcoming. I will definitely do business with him again - great business, easy process, totally professional. Thanks!!

Mike was so easy to work with. I live in a different state but he made the whole process easy. He responded to all my questions in a timely manner. I was emailed what I needed to send my items FedEx at no cost to me. As soon as Mike received my items an echeck was sent to my email account. He’s honest and the process was hassle free.

I contacted Mike about the value of some jewelry because I wanted to sell it. He asked for pictures which I texted to himHe went through a thorough examination of each piece. Explained what he saw and was very honest with me. He spent a lot of time on my jewelry.I would highly recommend contacting him with the greatest of confidence.I will use Mike again in the future.

Highly recommend! Mike is a pleasure to do business with, and I was pleasantly surprised at the total he paid for my jewelry. Super easy transaction, and I will def do business with him again.

Working with Mike from Cook County Buyers was awesome! I sold some my gold and jewelry with him for the best prices I could find. He met me at my home with face mask on and we did our transaction safely and efficiently. I would recommend working with him anytime. 👍👍👍

This was the first time I sold any jewelry. I was concerned about whether I had put enough effort into finding the right person. I had some stuff appraised at another jewelry appraiser and his quotes were about 10% lower than what Mike offered me. Hes competent, professional and pleasant to deal with.

Mike has been amazing to work with! Quick response time, very kind and personable, and great pricing. Highly recommend!

I have dealt with Michael buying and selling for about 10 years. He is very fair and honest. I would trust him with keys to my business. You are in good hands!

Mike was very helpful when I needed to sell my engagement ring and wedding band. He simply asked me for pictures and certificates-we met up the next day and the deal was sealed. He has professional equipment and a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend. Fast, easy, fair.

I was looking for the phone number for a different jewelry purchaser. Somehow I called Michael in error. Best mistake I made in a long time. We talked for a few minutes and I decided to make the trip to his office. He went through what I had, as I sat there thinking, hope I get a few hundred for this stuff that had been sitting around for years. I was pleasantly shocked. He gave me top dollar and it was definitely more than a few hundred. He took the time to explain what I had and why he was paying out what he did. Definitely recommend talking to Michael first before going to someone else.

It is my pleasure to add to all the other 5 star reviews. Mike made the process as smooth as possible and was both professional and efficient. Do not hesitate to utilize this “gem” of a company.

I regularly ship packages of jewelry to sell to Cook County Buyers from Michigan. Mike is very knowledgeable about the markets for signed / designer items and always pays me fairly! I highly recommend CCB if you’re considering selling your jewelry, especially if it’s name brand.

Trustworthy, honest and a fun experience! He offered me a VERY VERY fair cash price for my old jewelry! Because of Covid, I did not go to his location. He offered me a safe visit, but I am just not ready for onsite visits. He was cool about that as well! He painstakingly dealt with my questions on texts, using photos, and also on the phone verbally, answered my 1000 questions. We were able to do everything through the mail and over the phone. I am not one to lightly recommend a service. This is a sincere recommendation to all who are considering selling their valuables. Selling is a stressful situation. I can tell you honestly that Mike made the experience fun, and I feel strongly that he was fair. I hope this recommendation will help someone gain the confidence to trust in Mike and his business. I have more pieces I will sell to Mike in the future. (I am not ready to part with those JUST yet….) But when I am ready to sell more, I will sell to Mike. I know he will get me a great price, or trade! And lastly, I was super impressed by how fast Mike replies to questions! Definitely go to Cook Count Gold Buyer when you are thinking of selling the jewelry you no longer wear!

As a first time out of state purchaser from Cook County Buyers, I dealt directly with Mike and was completely satisfied with the professional manner in which that transaction was completed. In turn, I had confidence that I was dealing with an ethical and trustworthy jeweler and I highly recommend Mike to prospective clientele.

We went to see Mike about selling some fabulous gold and diamond jewelry that had been owned by my fiancé’s late wife. I enjoyed talking to Mike, I felt he was fair, and I liked his personality. Because it was a visit in the time of corona 19, he was wearing a mask as were we.The office is small but clean and modern and is accessible to visitors.I felt that his years of experience in the retail jewelry world helped him to be both a purchaser and a seller. We had been looking for jewelry for me as well.Today I even recommended Mike and cook county gold buyer to a dear friend who is selling Italian jewelry! Good bet if you go with Mike!

Mike was great. Courteous, professional and offered me a fair price for my gold jewelry. Thats all you can really ask for! Will def return to do more business.

What a wonderful experience. Called and met uo with Mike J. I needed clarification on some pieces that I had. Mike was very nice and professional. If you need a professional eye, call Cook County Buyers.

I reached Mike at Cook county Buyers in Chicago from NY when I was selling a gold David Yurman necklace. I sent him a picture of the necklace & he responded with 1 or 2 questions within 15 minutes& then followed with a quote right after. Well under 1 hour. When I accepted his offer, he emailed a fed ex insured label & I had the necklace on its way. I sent it on Saturday,& on Monday, Mike reconfirmed his offer, gave me a choice of payment through my bank, Zelle or a mailed check. As I opted for Zelle, I got my money in minutes. This was a pleasant, prompt experience & I highly recommend reaching Mike. The responsiveness & efficiency when dealing with selling vintage jewelry sets him apart from the rest. I am very satisfied & will be sending more pieces to sell shortly

Excellent experience dealing with Mike. My husband and I felt he was honest and fair in giving us a price for our sterling silver. Highly recommend!

I sold to CCB from out of state and must say -a very wonderful and stress free experience!! He was true to the price and very quick in responding back and sending the payment. A very trustworthy person- would not hesitate to sell to CCB again !! Thank you-

Smooth and professional experience, recommended!

A highly recommended jewelry buyer. I’ve sold a few silver pieces recently, and Mr. Mike has been very professional and time efficient. He also pays a good and fair market price.

I had some random cufflinks and pins my grandfather had given me. I had gone to a pawn shop near my house, but didn’t feel comfortable. A friend recommended Cook County Buyers. Michael offered way more than the pawn shop and it was a super smooth transaction. I’ll definitely be back!

Mike was very professional. I appreciated his knowledge and forthrightness.

I am so glad I went to Cook County Buyers . I just sold a couple rings that were just sitting in a safe deposit box . Mike is so knowledgeable and offered great prices. . I will definitely come back and tell friends and co workers

Great customer service! Mike is excellent, responsive and completely trustworthy. I highly recommend Cook County Buyer’s.

Highly recommended! Sent Mike a text with the diamond specs and had an appointment the next day! Fast and easy. No hassle. Thanks Mike!

Mike made the process of selling my sterling and gold items a breeze. He is professional and honest and cares about his clients. I have already referred him and his services to others. I highly recommend him.

I had gold jewelry to sell. I read Mikes online advice so one doesnt get ripped off when selling gold and how to know what your gold is worth. I went to two different places to see how they priced my gold. Mike was much more competitive, is hugely professional and I cant recommend him enough!

It was a pleasure doing business with Cook County buyers Inc. We are looking forward she doing more business in the near future

Very responsive, honest and fair prices. Highly recommended

Really enjoyed the honesty and integrity in my dealing with Cook County Buyers. I like how I am treated and they take the time to go through my goods with me. Michael is very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you CCB!

Great experience with Mike! Very knowledgeable about Rolex, and that’s just the beginning. He will go above and beyond to make sure his customers are happy. Would buy here again and recommend to everyone A+++

Upon inheriting some estate jewelry, I was faced with the unknown of the resell market. After several exhaustive online queries, I came across multiple reviews for Mike Jacobson. Since I live hundreds of miles away from Cook County Buyers, I needed to find someone in this industry that received a steady stream of both positive and trustworthy reviews from those who have had direct dealings with him. After a few emails, we agreed on a pending value and purchase price based on his assessment of the items. Within 24 hours, Mike sent me a prepaid shipping label that carried insurance for the total value of the items. The package arrived overnight to Cook County Buyers, at which time Mike communicated with me that it was stored in his safe and would be assessed at the first opportunity.The next morning, I received word that his initial offer would stand after reviewing my items. His wire transfer cleared my bank the next day, and our business concluded. Highlights of dealing with Mike at CCB include: 1) Timely responses. Others may take days to follow-up on your initial contact. 2) Mike provides direct answers containing succinate information. A few dealers danced around your items worth without actually committing to a price, not Mike. 3) A part of me expected the pending purchase price to lower after he inspected the pieces. After all, his offer is contingent upon what he sees and what he can remarket/resell. I was elated that his initial proposal did not change by a single penny after his assessment.I would reach out to Mr. Jacobson at Cook County without hesitation. You will be pleasantly surprised by how pain-free he has made the process for long-distance sellers.

Working with Michael was very easy and a great experience. He was thorough and patient as he went through all of the pieces we brought him. He offered us a more than fair price and we wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again and recommend him to anyone looking to sell their valuables or find out the value of their items.

Mike was very nice and also professional in helping to identify some flatware we wanted to sell.

Before going to Cook County Buyers, I had found two other places to bring my jewelry to compare offers after this one. After sitting with Mike, I felt no need to look further and Ill tell you why. He took a long time to evaluate each piece. He educated me by showing me diamonds of various values and how one can decipher. I could see it myself. As for pieces I had, he even questioned himself by going online to see what these types of pieces were selling for, making sure neither of us would feel cheated. He told me what he could pay me and how much he believed he could make off each piece. He never pushed or persuaded. There was no pressure. And I felt he was honest. Nice guy, too! So, I sold him the whole pile and walked away with a nice bundle. This was a win-win.

Mike buys gold, silver, coins, AND gems. Mike is a trustworthy person. I have a pretty good vibe on people since i have been teaching for over 25 years. Mike helped me carry my box since i just hurt my knee. He is polite, respectful, and honest in my opinion. I found a 2nd box of mini gold bars and coins and silver as well. Again Mike was very helpful coming to my car and carring the 2nd more heavy box for me. I did research the selling price of gold and silver and that was the same price he offered me. I called a friend and She wants my to bring Mike some very fine and heavy silver silverware sets. I do not mind. Mike is Smart... Fair.... Respectful... The endHelen. Mike has my contact tnfo

Michael rearranged his schedule to meet with me, was super professional and kind, and gave me a very good price for my gold items. Highly recommended!

Michael was fantastic. He took me through each piece I had for him and explained what it was and what it was worth. He is knowledgeable, professional, and personable. I won’t hesitate to contact him again.

Everyone who is willing to get rid of gold, go to Mike from Cook County Buyers. He is great at what he does. He knows what hes doing when it comes to buying gold jewelry. Great doing business with you! I would highly recommend you to everyone I know. Thank you.

Always a pleasure dealing with Michael at Cook County Buyers, his integrity and professionalism makes each transaction go very smooth.

I highly recommend Michael and CCGB. He came to our home andthoroughly evaluated the silver Items we offered for sale, weighing each item, and tested for sterling when in doubt, and offered a fair price foreach item. He also evaluated several pieces of jewelry and gave fairprices for each piece sold. His personality is low key and welcoming, with a good sense of humor as well. I definitely will be a return customer when the situation presents itself.

Working with Michael was very easy and a great experience. He was Knowledgeable, patient, kind and very fair in his pricing. He was easy to work with, quick to respond and followed up. Very pleased with my experience.

I called and went to a few places to get an quote for my ring and I wasnt happy with what they were offering me, then I was online and found reviews for Mike and gave him a call. He told me to send him a picture of my ring and he got back to me right away and quoted me a price. I was happy with his quote, def more than other places i went to. Met him up the next day and he made the process very easy. Very honest.

Mike was awesome to work with! I texted him pictures of my gold and we set a date to meet. He came to my house on a Saturday afternoon - I was home by myself with a newborn and felt 100% comfortable as Mike was honest, sincere, friendly and professional. He went through each piece of my jewelry and discussed pricing with me. I will call him again in a heartbeat with future jewelry sales and will be recommending Cook County Buyers to all of my friends.

Had a great experience working with Mike ! He was courteous, professional and trustworthy and I truly did get the best deal from him in selling my diamond. Mike was very knowledgeable and importantly very straightforward. Would highly recommend you contacting Mike especially after you have done your due diligence in getting other opinions. Definitely worth the time to at least get his opinion.

I have done multiple transactions with Michael and every time I am treated as if I were his top client. He always delivers quality products at more than fair prices. Highly Recommend giving Michael and Cook County Buyers your business!!!!

I needed to sell some jewelry that I inherited from my grandmother. I went to 2 places and got offers that I felt were rather low. Then I found Mike at cook county buyers. He asked me to text a few pics and within minutes he gave me a rough estimate, which was already higher!We arranged to meet later that same day, at his office. Its nice because its a private one on one meeting, and he really takes his time to explain his evaluation process, and educate me.After all was said and done I left with almost $500 more then the highest other offer.I would highly recommend Mike, give him a call and text and you wont be disappointed!

Had an overwhelming amount of jewelry inherited from an out of business store, working with Michael was fantastic as he made the process much easier than we were expecting, and we were very happy with what the offer was. Thanks Michael!

We just sold a diamond ring to Mike at his Skokie office. We found him online the day before due to positive reviews and scheduled to see him the day after. Mike cleaned our current jewelry, gave a precise examination of the ring and diamond that were were looking to sell and gave us an offer that we were realistically looking to get. He gave us cash on the spot. Really simple! No pressure and very trustworthy! The other jewelry stores we brought it to prior didnt feel trustworthy and their offers were less. We highly recommend seeing Mike!

I was very pleased with Michael. He’s knowledgeable and very friendly. I got a great price for my ring. Thank you again Michael. I will definitely recommend you.

Ive been holding off on selling this ring for quite some time. Because it is very difficult to know who you can trust. I did not expect retail value but I also didnt want to get jipped.Michael is very fair, very thorough, extremely professional, and I feel like I got the best price I could with him.I am happy enough that I will be bringing him another ring next week.If youre uncomfortable or worried please feel confident that he will be fair and honest and very thorough in his quest to give you the best price he can

I have done business with Michael on three separate occasions. He is so easy to work with including educating me on the process of selling silver, diamonds, and gold. He is extremely knowledgeable and fair. I go nowhere else to sell jewelry and watches.

I sold a few gold earrings here a few weeks back. Mike does everything in front of you and is very professional/trustworthy. I will definitely be back

Mike was very honest and helpful! Glad I chose to come here to sell my diamonds. Hes very knowledgeable and will show and teach you about your diamond! I would definitely recommend coming here!

Mike was great and very personable. I used someone else before Mike and that person tried to rip me off. They told me half of the jewelry was worthless. Mike tested everything and gave me top dollar for my items. I highly recommend that you use Cook County Buyers and talk to Mike to sell your used jewelry. You cannot go wrong.

Our experience with Michael Jacobson was very positive in all aspects of the selling process. His website was informative & easy to navigate & his credentials are impeccable. Using his site, we provided our contact information along with a description of what we were selling, attached a couple of pictures of our jewelry & submitted it for his review. A short time later in order to speed up the process, I called his number & he immediately answered my call. He was very friendly & professional. As it turned out, he was available to make a house call & he arrived at our home within a couple of hours of our initial contact. We also had the option of meeting at his place of business in Skokie but as senior citizens we felt uncomfortable carrying around expensive jewelry pieces & also possibly coming out after the deal with a large amount of cash. After arriving at our home he inspected & sorted our pieces we were offering by grade using an electronic gold meter which verifies the carat level, weighed the pieces & we arrived at a mutually agreeable price that we felt was fair for the lot.We also made a last minute deal on a contemporary wristwatch that we were selling as well.All in all, we found the entire process painless & have now opened a new avenue to make some quick cash on the spot, for pieces that are just sitting in a drawer or jewelry box collecting dust. We will recommend CCB & owner Michael Jacobson to one & all in the future.
