Sep 24, 2007. Messages. 9,711. May 2, 2022. #6. Pearlescence is right! "Sold" listings demonstrate what people are actually willing to pay. And it costs nothing to do a search. Resale value is generally much lower than replacement value, especially for the more common kinds, quality and sizes of pearls.
