Akon was a pleasure to do business with. He was very knowledgeable, very helpful, AND paid $$$ top dollar $$$ for the gold ring that I brought in to sale. ThankYou sir read more

Very honest and loyal owner. He will give you the best possible price and be honest with you if there is a alternative. I had no idea I could return my items under 30 days. Thanks to his honesty I was able to do so and get fully refunded. I will definitely keep him in mind for the future when I want to purchase jewelry. read more

I had a loose diamond that I no longer needed and brought it to M I Trading for evaluation. Mr. Tairy was kind, personable and knowledgeable throughout the process of examining my diamond, clearly explaining aspects that affect diamond values. He offered an amount that exceeded a previous appraisal I had received and he gave me immediate payment. It was an efficient process, with no pressure and an offer I felt was fair. I can recommend M I Trading without hesitation. read more

This guy is legit, such a pleasure meeting him and he made me feel right at home throughout the entire process. No pressure selling and very knowledgeable, will use his business in the future any time I need it. Glad I found him! Thanks again man. -J.D. read more

Phenomenal experience working with this man. He was very straight forward and educated in this field. I will definitely be doing business with him again as soon as the chance arises. read more

Meh, paid way less than what only 2 of the items I sold. Should have walked out, but not bold enough, unfortunately.

He will not accept any diamonds with fluorescence on them. I purchased my ring from a reputable source, top notch diamond colorless and hardly any impurities. 1.5 Carat, color grade D and VS1 clarity... he did say he would give me an offer but that I would like it (probably bc it was going to be low). Take your diamonds elsewhere. read more

I recently took the opportunity to gather some unused gold and silver jewelry, items that had not been used for years and did not appear to be something that anyone in my family would need in the future. I used the Internet to search for local gold and jewelry buyers and came across M. I. Trading. I was so impressed with the ratings and comments that were made--generally focused on "honest", "fair", and "knows his stuff." The first thing I did was make an appointment to get to know the owner, Moran, because it was important to find how I would respond to him. I was immediately struck by his wonderful, friendly personality--not the overwhelming "salesman" image you might think of--just a really nice guy who explained his philosophy about valuables that are not being used and just sitting around the house. No pushing, no pitch, just normal conversation. I feel like I have a new friend! Later that day I took some pieces of gold jewelry for an estimate and, to the best of my knowlege feel I got a fair price. Several weeks later, I gathered more unused, old jewelry and went back to see Moran. I feel great about getting a reasonable amount of money instead of having this jewelry that I don't wear and that my children do not want just sitting in a box. I plan to use the money toward some remodeling we've got going on--much more useful! So, meet Moran and see what you think for yourself if you're looking to clean out the jewelry box. I know you will be pleased. read more

My experience with Moran was wonderful. He offered me a slightly better price than previous quotes just because (in his words), "I like to do a little better". That "little better", which he aims for, is not just in price, it is also in personal care, and it makes a large difference From beginning to end I felt like the customer when I was really the seller. He put all my nerves at ease, answered my questions, and treated me with great respect and integrity. He even went so far as to call an associate of his on my behalf to answer a tax question I had. He did this on speaker phone with me after our sale was complete. This little detail is an example of him "doing better". Not just as a business man, but also as a fellow human being. I hope I get the chance to sell to him again. read more

M I Trading - The diamond in question. - Gold Buyers Near Me - Austin, Texas

Tried going to his location in Austin and there is no store what so ever and will not answer his phone when he says he is open.

Had some rings to sell and my trusted jeweler told us that MI Trading was the best place to go. He was so right! Met with Moran and had a very enjoyable discussion. He gave us a very fair price which is really what its all about. Would not hesitate to do business with him again, and will definitely recommend him to friends/family. read more

Moran was great to do business with. I am very satisfied with the process of selling my diamond. Extremely knowledgeable, professional, no pressure and a fair price. I had done some research prior to meeting with him, considered other options and this really was the best. I highly recommend him and will definitely do business with him in the future. read more

Moran met with me on short notice and went through a very large amount of jewelry I had to sell, piece by piece, giving me feedback on almost every item. I was given a fair price for the pieces he did purchase, and honest advice regarding what to consider for the pieces he passed on. Moran is a professional, knowledgable and down to earth family man who makes you feel very comfortable from the moment you walk in. I highly recommend his business and would definitely use him again! read more

Moran was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledge and overall just a great person to do business with. The office was very clean and comfortable. The whole experience was just easy. Plain and simple. Highly recommend! read more

Very responsive. Super knowledgeable, polite, and helpful. Offered me some great insight and advise -- as well as a good price on two rings and assorted gold items. I would highly recommend doing business with M.I. Trading. read more

I didn't buy anything but the person I spoke with went out of his way to help me. I will definitely be stopping by his place!

My experience with Moran was great! I went in to sell a diamond ring and believe I was given a very fair price. I will definitely refer others in the future to his business. Thank you read more

Absolutely amazing experience! Moran is a true professional and very easy to work with. Nice office, easy transaction and best of all he offered more that the previous offers I had gotten. If the need arises I will definitely visit him again (and not bother with any others!). read more

I went to sell a diamond and Moran was so easy and pleasant to work with!! This was the easiest transaction when it came to selling my jewelry. Moran was very honest and knowledgeable and extremely fair when selling my Diamond. I would only go to M. I. Trading to sell or purchase jewelry!! I am so glad I found this place!!! read more

He was very professional and respectful by wearing a mask. I appreciated that he squeezed me in when I didn't know it was appointment only! He took a few of my pieces and I walked out of there pretty happy! I decided not to sell a few pieces and he tried to educate me on other ways I could sell my pieces. He was very nice and I didn't feel like I was being swindled. My only wish would be to know better how he was making his estimate. I will be back in the future! read more

I appreciated the time and honesty of Moran when I was working with him about selling my diamond ring. The experience allowed me to be knowledgable and feel comfortable about my decision. Thank you Moran! read more

I was shopping around to sell my inherited Diamond and Moran at M.I Trading was the most professional with the highest offer. I will definitely recommend Moran to family and friends. Thank you. read more

Moran was fantastic. He worked with my schedule and was flexible even day of the appointment. I sold a couple of pieces and he explained his process for evaluating the price and ultimately we agreed on what I thought was a fair price. Highly recommended for any of your jewelry needs. Thanks Moran! read more

Moran is a true professional. He was a joy to work with and made me feel comfortable and welcomed in his office. His offer was more than reasonable and I left feeling happy and relieved at having been given a fair price for my item. It was a personal and rewarding transaction. Highly recommended! read more

I had inherited some jewelry that had been sitting in a safe collecting dust for several years and I finally let myself sell it. Moran was great to work with. He understood the situation, empathized with me and educated me on the different pieces of jewelry I had. He also gave me the highest offer! I highly recommend M.I. Trading. read more

I was so glad I finally got rid of my old wedding ring and working with Moran was a delight. Fast, honest, and totally worth it!

When I was ready to sell my engagement ring, a friend recommended Moran, so I went to him first and he made me an offer. Since it was the first offer I'd gotten, I decided to shop it around and see if I could do better. I didn't. I sent it to NY to a diamond buyer who had high ratings on the internet, and they offered me substantially less. I also got another quote in town that was less, so back to Moran I went. He honored his previous offer and was very pleasant and friendly to work with. I had heard from my friend that he would offer a fair price, and she was certainly right! I would recommend him to anyone who is trying to sell their diamond jewelry. read more

When I started on my journey to find an interested buyer for my diamond ring, I had no idea where to start, and Moran was the first Diamond buyer that popped up in my search. I continued my search though, because I in good faith could not settle with just one quote. I had to know I was making the right choice of who to sell my Diamond ring to. Moran was eager and willing to meet with me at my convenience, and made the process so easy and convenient. When I left my meeting with Moran, I did not take him up on his initial offer, but instead felt I needed to continue with my due diligence by receiving more than one quote. After what seemed like pulling teeth to even set up meetings with other diamond buyers, I continued until I got my other quotes. When I met with Moran he was confident that I would be back to see him, and sell to him, in which he was right. His professionalism, straightforward nature, and transparency made me want to give him my business. His integrity spoke volumes when he stayed true to his word and bought my ring for what he had originally offered to me, even though the market had changed since our first encounter. I will absolutely do business with Moran again, if I'm ever in need of selling another diamond, and I encourage anyone out there needing to sell your diamond/s to look no further and give Moran a chance to do business with you! You won't regret it! read more

Moran was personable, professional, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. His evaluation of my father's diamond ring was accurate and the price he gave was meaningfully better than any other offer I had received. I was actually referred to Moran by another jeweler, and I am glad I got that recommendation. If I ever need to sell an item like this again, I will not hesitate to work with him again. Much appreciated! read more

I had some necklaces, and earrings laying around after doing some cleaning and went to Moran to see what I could get. I called him to see if I could come in the same day and he managed to squeeze me in between appointments. The appointment was quick and I was more than happy with what Moran offered me. I will definitely be back in the future. It was a pleasure doing business with you Moran. read more

Great experience!! The time was taken to explain why diamonds are priced the way they are. Price was good for diamonds offered! Ladies.. sell that old ring and make your own happy ending! read more

Look no further! I've been battling trying to find a buyer for some rings I had. The owner of M. I. Trading, Mr. Moran Tairy, was so very welcoming we felt like we were being treated at a spa! He was courteous and extremely knowledgeable, gave us fresh espresso and water as well as fantastic parenting tips, as I am a new father. Besides how great Mr. Tairy is on a personal level, we got DOUBLE the money for the rings than we were offered ANYWHERE else! Honesty is the best policy! You'll find it here! read more

Moran was SO friendly and very social-able. The quote he gave me on my engagement ring he explained why it was that quote and also gave back up information confirming his findings which was very insightful and comforting knowing he had immense knowledge of his practice. His office is very clean and well thought out, definitely a warm welcoming area. The customer service I received when I was there was amazing, and if I had more diamonds to sell I would definitely go to him. No cons about this appointment and his business. read more

I had a great experience selling my ring. He was upfront and honest. He even spent time explaining the precious metal market.

I was looking for a reputable jewelry buyer for a considerable amount of jewelry owned by my father. My husband found M.I. Trading on Yelp with all its five-star reviews and suggested I check them out. Mr. Moran Tairy, the extremely knowledgeable owner, works by appointment only and is clearly committed to ensuring all his customers have a positive, stress-free experience. Since you are dealing directly with him, he brings years of expertise and passion for the industry to each individual one-on-one appointment and he's able to extend a fair offer and pay his customers right on the spot. However, he does not put pressure to close the deal immediately; he let me go home to think about it and that made me feel much more at ease. Especially since it was a large quantity of jewelry being surveyed, much without particular details or appraisal papers, I really appreciated how Mr. Tairy meticulously weighed and measured everything to provide the most honest and fair offer for both parties. Throughout all the time spent assessing the jewelry, he was remarkably patient, transparent (even his desk is clear glass so nothing could inadvertently drop out of sight), energetic, and relatable. It is clear he prioritizes respect of his customers and personal integrity, which is both refreshing and rare. He is a straight-shooter, allowing the stats of the jewelry (such as the 4Cs) to determine the potential for sale and the price of the offer. I was pleasantly surprised how much care and time he invested to educate me on the items he was buying, the items he passed on, and the items he recommended I look to sell elsewhere, even providing leads on locations and lowest prices I should accept. He understands both the jewelry industry and people, articulating about both clearly and genuinely. I would highly recommend Mr. Moran Tairy and M.I. Trading for the entire experience start-to-finish and only wish I had learned of them sooner! read more

Today we met with Moran to present several jewelry items that were inherited in the past few years in addition to those that I already owned. These items were kept in a safe for many years and in very good condition. I hadn't thought about selling them, but I'm now convinced my family members wouldn't be interested in keeping them after I'm gone. So why not look into selling them? Not knowing what to expect, it was comforting to see this establishment is located in a very nice building with security! This is a one man show, and not a busy office or retail setting. Moran very carefully looked at every piece in detail. He separated the gold pieces from the silver pieces. As it turned out he was not interested in the silver at this time. But he did offer us a very good payment for the gold pieces and some of those with diamonds. He is a family man and it shows! You will like meeting him and give him a chance to buy the things you haven't worn. read more

sold him my moms old rings ,i never tough i would feel so happy to sell something old and none useful, gave me by far more then i expected , honest dude read more

There are not a lot of jewelry buyers in Austin that are not just pawn shop types or only interested in that most rarest piece found no where else in the world. I picked M.I. Trading over the (very few) rest based on their ratings, and I wasn't disappointed. Only reason 4 stars instead of 5 was because I had to wait 15-20 minutes after my appt time started for someone ahead of me. As I was told, if you don't wear it - sell it!! read more

Moran was a pleasure to work with. I have learned so much about the diamond business because of his expertise and advice. He gave me a fair price for my jewelry and educated me on the business. He's the real deal. I would definitely work with him again and recommend him to my friends/family. read more

I had a very Nice experience with this company. I had my grandmothers Diamond ring that she was looking to sell I did a research online and I got to m I trading, not only got the best price, but a great service as well. Someone's looking for The right diamond guy you got it here. read more
