I never said that I wanted to insure. I was just wondering if I were to resell it to a reputable second hand jeweller what I would need. I called one in my area and he said of course cartier will authenticate it. And if I were to sell it to him he would need my drivers license to verify with cartier that the bracelet belongs to me. I guess cartier will reissue the certificate and verify authenticity if you can provide proof of purchase or enough info about it to look it up on their system? I'm not too sure I guess I'll ask my family friend where she got it and see if they can find the reciept for me :\ Kinda confused how their system works
I brought up the point of insurance as an excuse to ask the gifter for the authenticity certificate, in the event that they may have forgotten to give it to you. But it seems you have it fairly squared away with that second hand jeweller.
