Be Careful When You Sell Gold in San Diego

San Diego Jewelry Buyer (SDJB) has issued an advisory to customers seeking to sell gold, diamonds, Swiss watches, and fine jewelry with the company. According to SDJB, potential clients should be aware that some gold and jewelry buyers are seeking to take advantage of SDJB’s company name. These buyers are engaging in several misleading online activities. Some are placing internet ads around SDJB’s press releases using the term “San Diego Jewelry Buyers,” while others are using the term as the headline for their Google ads. They do so in the hope that sellers will contact them and not know the difference.

“Having been notified by several jewelry sellers who were upset to discover the company they were dealing with was not us, we want to emphasize to San Diegans and our out-of-town customers that SDJB is the only company with the legally registered name San Diego Jewelry Buyers,” says Carl Blackburn, owner of San Diego Jewelry Buyers.

According to Blackburn, customers can confirm that they are on a true San Diego Jewelry Buyers (SDJB) website by looking for the company logo, which depicts a diamond above green leaves, as well as the initials SDJB. In addition, when viewing a Google ad with the headline “San Diego Jewelry Buyers” the website listed at the bottom of the ad should be www.sandiegojewelrybuyers.com.

Sellers also are advised to note that the company’s state license is #3711-1917, and that they operate out of only one office at 907 6th Ave. in the Gaslamp Quarter of downtown San Diego.

For those wishing to confirm ahead of time that they are dealing with owner Carl Blackburn, the company encourages them to watch the KUSI special report which features Blackburn giving advice to former CNN anchor Sasha Foo about how to sell gold and fine jewelry.
