“Serving New York City” describes where our customers come from; it does not mean that Buyers of NYC operates an office in every borough. Our verified public office is on West 47th Street in Manhattan’s Diamond District. Customers from elsewhere in the city may plan an in-person visit or request a review for the approved mail-in program.
Before traveling, confirm current hours and bring the W07 office designation. If you have a large collection, heavy bullion, several watches, estate property or an item requiring extra review time, call before leaving so the team can help plan the appointment.
The examples are representative, not a promise that every item will receive an offer. Eligibility depends on identity, condition, documentation, quantity, safety, active purchasing needs and the market route available for the specific item.
New York City has several subway, commuter rail, bridge, ferry and highway corridors into Midtown Manhattan. Transit routes, elevator status, street conditions, tolls and parking availability can change. Select your borough below for route guidance. Check the MTA trip planner, line maps, service status and elevator information before travel.
Use the Manhattan visit guide for Diamond District orientation, nearby stations, walking, taxi, rideshare and office-arrival guidance. Direct local access via 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center (B/D/F/M), 49 St (N/R), or 50 St (1). Direct crosstown access via M50 bus or walking from Times Square and Grand Central.
Arrive at 36 W 47th Street, Suite W07 between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, two minutes from the 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center subway exits.
Use the Queens guide for representative subway and Long Island Rail Road corridors into Midtown. The 7 train provides direct access to 5th Ave/Bryant Park; the E and M connect to 5 Av/53 St or 47-50 Sts; the F connects directly from Forest Hills and Jackson Heights to 47-50 Sts. The Long Island Rail Road provides express service into Grand Central Madison.
Exit at 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center or Grand Central Madison, followed by a short walk west along West 47th Street to Suite W07.
Use the Brooklyn guide for cross-borough subway, bridge and tunnel planning. B or D toward 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center when scheduled; N, Q or R toward Times Square or 49 St; 2 or 3 toward Times Square; F from central and south Brooklyn directly to 47-50 Sts.
Exit at 47-50 Sts, 49 St, or Times Square, then walk east/west to 36 W 47th Street, Suite W07.
Compare subway or Metro-North options into Midtown, then verify current service and accessibility before travel. The B and D provide direct express service along Grand Concourse to 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center. The 4 train runs express down Lexington Ave to Grand Central. Metro-North Hudson and Harlem lines arrive directly at Grand Central Terminal.
Arrive at 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center or Grand Central Terminal, followed by a short walk along West 47th Street.
Allow additional planning time for ferry, bus, subway, driving, toll and weather conditions; call before transporting a substantial collection. Staten Island Railway to St. George, Staten Island Ferry to Whitehall Terminal, then 1 or R train uptown to 49 St/Times Sq, or take an MTA SIM express bus (SIM1C, SIM3C, SIM4C) directly into Midtown Manhattan.
Whitehall Terminal uptown connection to 49 St or Midtown express bus stop, followed by a walk to West 47th Street.
47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center is the most direct subway arrival for the Diamond District block because the station has entrances along Sixth Avenue at West 47th through West 50th Streets. The B and D connect the Bronx and Brooklyn with Sixth Avenue, and the F connects Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn directly to 47-50 Sts. The M reaches Midtown from Queens and North Brooklyn when running on its normal weekday pattern.
The MTA lists 47-50 Sts-Rockefeller Center as an accessible station, but accessibility equipment can be temporarily out of service. Check current elevator and escalator status before leaving, especially when carrying a heavy case or when step-free travel is essential.
The N, Q, R, and W serve Queens and Brooklyn hubs such as Atlantic Av-Barclays Center and Astoria, bringing customers to Times Square or 49 St near West 47th Street. The 1, 2, and 3 provide direct West Side and Uptown/Downtown express transit into Times Square-42nd Street and 50th Street.
49 St has direction-specific accessibility limitations, and transfer accessibility can differ from station accessibility. Customers who require a step-free route should verify the exact direction, entrance and elevator status rather than relying on the station name alone.
Customers traveling from Queens via the 7, the East Side and the Bronx via the 4, 5, or 6, or commuter rail via Metro-North and Long Island Rail Road (Grand Central Madison) arrive at Grand Central. From Grand Central Terminal, 36 W 47th Street is a direct 10-minute walk west along 47th Street.
Grand Central Madison and the historic terminal feature step-free accessible elevators, direct concourse connections, and climate-controlled transfers. Verify departure schedules on the MTA TrainTime app before traveling.
Depending on the starting borough and current traffic, drivers enter Midtown Manhattan using bridges or tunnels. Queens and Brooklyn drivers cross via the Queensboro, Williamsburg, Manhattan, or Brooklyn Bridges, or the Queens-Midtown and Hugh L. Carey Tunnels. Bronx drivers enter via the Triborough/RFK, Willis Avenue, or Third Avenue Bridges, while Staten Island drivers cross the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge into Brooklyn before proceeding to Manhattan.
Driving into Midtown Manhattan may involve bridge or tunnel delays, tolls and congestion pricing regulations depending on vehicle classification, route, time of day and current rules. Buyers of NYC does not promise parking or validate a garage. Review live traffic, toll and parking information before travel and do not leave valuables unattended in a vehicle.
A subway station listed as accessible may still experience temporary elevator or escalator outages. Building entry at 36 W 47th Street, Suite W07 is a dedicated commercial suite with elevator access. Check the MTA’s current accessibility dashboard and call 646-400-4553 before travel when an elevator, step-free route, wheelchair seating, communication accommodation or additional appointment time is important.
We recommend confirming elevator operational status on both the departure and arrival platforms on the day of travel. Contact our office in advance so our team can provide detailed building access guidance and coordinate your visit.
Our transparent 5-stage evaluation protocol is conducted in-person at our Manhattan Diamond District office with complete clarity, strict confidentiality, and zero obligation to sell.
Choose the closest category, provide basic information and request an appointment or preliminary review. Photographs can help with routing but do not establish a binding offer.
Keep boxes, reports, receipts, watch cards, service records, spare links, coin holders, matched pieces and loose components with the corresponding item.
The review may consider identity, materials, construction, condition, documentation, market demand and the most appropriate resale, collector, component, bullion or recoverable-material route.
Not every item receives an offer. When an offer is presented, the team can explain the principal factors considered and the proposed transaction terms.
A purchase evaluation is free and does not obligate you to sell. If you accept, identity, ownership, recordkeeping and payment procedures apply before the transaction is completed.
West 47th Street brings together many businesses involved in diamonds, jewelry, gemstones, watches and precious metals. For a seller, a specialized market can make it easier to ask informed questions, understand which parts of an item may contribute value and compare transaction terms.
A Diamond District address does not guarantee that every buyer uses the same process or will make the same offer. Before choosing a transaction, ask:
Do not ship an item until Buyers of NYC has approved the category, issued a case number and provided written instructions. Unsolicited packages may be refused or returned without evaluation.
Follow these practical recommendations to prepare your items and protect their condition and documentation.
Confirm the office address, W07 designation and current hours.
Decide which item category best describes what you own.
Keep all related components and documents together.
Do not clean collectible coins, polish antique jewelry, service watches, remove stones, open bullion packaging or perform destructive home tests solely before an evaluation.
Prepare a simple inventory for a collection.
Carry valuables discreetly and keep them under your control.
Call before transporting multiple boxes, heavy bullion or another substantial holding.
Ask about current accessibility or accommodation procedures before travel when needed.
Do not send government identification, banking information, wills, trusts or court documents through the ordinary contact form.
Specific intake and handling procedures for substantial multi-category property holdings.
A collection may require more planning than a single item. Before traveling, provide a category summary, approximate quantity, known brands or reports and representative photographs through the approved intake process. The team can then recommend an appointment length and whether several categories should be reviewed separately.
Do not publish a detailed inventory, storage location or complete serial-number list in an ordinary email. Sensitive records should be exchanged only through an approved secure workflow.
Do not send government identification, banking information, wills, trusts, court orders, complete watch serial numbers, complete laboratory-report numbers, account credentials, storage locations or unrestricted ownership records through the ordinary contact form. Sensitive records should be exchanged only through an approved secure workflow.
Our senior gemologists, numismatists, and luxury watch evaluators review every piece with decades of combined market experience, advanced testing instrumentation, and full transparency.

The public office is at 36 W 47th Street, W07, New York, NY 10036, in Manhattan’s Diamond District. Confirm the W07 designation and current hours before traveling.
Yes. Customers travel to the Manhattan office from Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx and Staten Island. Serving a borough does not mean that Buyers of NYC maintains a storefront in that borough.
Appointments are preferred, and walk-ins are welcome during published business hours. Call before transporting a large collection, heavy bullion or an item likely to require extended research.
Representative categories include precious metals, coins, bullion, diamonds, colored gemstones, fine and estate jewelry, luxury watches and mixed collections. Eligibility and any offer are item-specific.
Photographs may help the team decide whether an item appears to fit a purchasing category and what information to bring. A final offer ordinarily requires physical review, item verification and applicable transaction checks.
No. A purchase evaluation helps Buyers of NYC decide whether it wishes to buy an item. An insurance, estate, tax, probate, litigation or equitable-distribution appraisal serves a different purpose and may require a qualified independent appraiser and written report.
Usually, bring it as found. Cleaning, polishing, servicing, recutting, resizing or replacing components may cost money, alter original surfaces or remove evidence useful to the evaluation.
Yes, provided the person completing a transaction owns the property or has legal authority to sell it. Bring a simple inventory and retain all boxes, reports, receipts, labels and loose components. Sensitive estate or trust records should be reviewed through a secure process rather than the public form.
Some damaged, broken, altered or incomplete items may still be considered. The team may review the remaining stones, metal, components, maker, documents, repair implications and possible market route.
Yes. Compare the same item components and the same transaction type. Ask whether an offer includes the complete piece, stones, metal, accessories, fees, commissions, holding periods, payment method and return obligations.
Eligible domestic items may be considered through the approved mail-in program. Do not ship anything until you receive a case number, an approved label and written instructions identifying the applicable shipping coverage and conditions.
No. Coverage is shipment-specific and subject to the carrier or insurer’s limits, exclusions, documentation requirements and approved value. Buyers of NYC should confirm the applicable method in writing before a customer ships.
No responsible buyer can guarantee the highest offer for every item without knowing the item, market route and competing transaction terms. Buyers of NYC can explain the principal factors considered in its own offer.
Use discreet packaging or a plain bag, keep the items under your control and avoid discussing the contents publicly. For a substantial holding, call first and choose a travel plan appropriate to the quantity and value.
Call before travel so the team can explain current building-entry and appointment procedures. Transit accessibility and elevator status should also be checked through current official tools.
Tell us what you are considering selling, whether it is one item or a collection and whether you prefer to visit the Manhattan office or request mail-in approval. A purchase evaluation is free, and you are not obligated to accept an offer.
