Colorado Gem Labs gave us an appraisal on a ring I needed to insure. Made same day appointment with Michael Nedler. Most importantly, he was able to do this while we waited, which was a great relief for me. A few other places I contacted said I'd have to leave the ring for the appraisal. This ring is a beloved heirloom and I didn't just want to leave it with someone I didn't know to be appraised. Michael was prompt, kind and thorough. Within 30 minutes we had the appraisal. I know this is a great place to put in our pocket for any future jewelry appraisals we may need! read more

Michael appraised a pair of stud diamond earrings for me so I could gift one to my younger son who is planning on getting engaged to his longtime GF. He was extremely courteous, professional and efficient. He explained his process and all the details one looks for in appraising a gem. Took him less than an hour for both studs. He gave me a printed copy of the appraisal as well as an email copy. He had already given me a price for the appraisal in advance which was extremely fair. You can't go wrong going to Michael for your appraisals! Highly recommend! read more

During a recent cruise to Alaska, my husband and I purchased a solitaire engagement ring from a local jeweler. Although the jeweler provided us with the appraisal and certificate for the ring, we wanted to have an independent appraisal conducted to ensure that we got what we paid for. I Googled appraisers "near me" and started reading reviews on various appraisers. I located Michael through some of the reviews that I read. I was drawn to him by the fact that I would not be required to leave my new ring with a stranger. Michael does his evaluations right in front of you without it ever leaving your sight. When I emailed Michael, he was out of town but was still responsive. He was able to get us scheduled for the day after his return. Michael looked over the paperwork that we received from the jeweler and thoroughly analyzed the ring in front of us, including the setting, the center stone, and all of the side stones. While analyzing the ring, Michael explained what he was doing every step of the way. After completing his analysis, Michael was able to give us the good news that we DEFINITELY got a great deal on the purchase of the ring and that we did well!! Once finished with his evaluation, Michael printed the report for us to take with us and also emailed a copy that can be sent to our insurance company. We were quite pleased with Michael, his service, affordabilty, and his flexibility in scheduling us so quickly. We highly recommend Michael for your appraisal needs. You will not regret it! read more

When over 20 years pass since the last appraisal on a valuable piece of jewelry, it is time to get a new one. I took to the internet to find someplace close to my west Aurora, CO, location. I had preformed opinions about not going to a store, especially one without a known brand name. When I found, Colorado Gem Labs, I was pleased with the website. It was very close to me. I made a phone call, reached Michael, and set up and appointment. The website said I was welcome to stay right with Michael for the evaluation/appraisal, and that I did. He started out asking my my purposes for the new appraisal. There are several reasons why people get them, but mine was for insurance policy use. I wanted to be sure that I was adequately insured. So, all in all, I was very pleased with the manner in which I was treated and educated by Michael Nedler. He has excellent credentials for this work. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a professional appraisal on their jewelry. His place of business is 818 S. Galena Street, Aurora. 80247. Phone: 303-842-5675.

Before finding Michael, I drove downtown...then parked...then spent about an hour in a shop where I had to leave my wife's jewelry for a week before driving and parking and waiting again. After finding Michael, the experience was WAY better in every way. The whole process took about an hour. He did his work while I sat comfortably in his office (which I far prefer over leaving my wife's diamonds with strangers!). He even cleaned the diamonds! I feel very lucky to have found Michael. Now that I have, I'll never go anywhere else for a fast, trust-worthy, affordable, professional appraisal. read more

Michael was super helpful, I called 30 minutes before closing on a Saturday, to ask about the cost of an appraisal of a ring that I found and didn't know if it was worth being appraised. He kindly advise me, that since I found it in a branded box to take it to the store and let them see if it's registered and/or run a diamond test on them, as opposed to paying him to do an appraisal. 99% of others would have said "sure bring it in" when I clearly told him that I had little to no knowledge of what I was talking about. Very kind and awesome customer service. If I ever ACTUALLY need an appraisal, hah, I'll definitely come here. Thanks Michael. read more
