[Case Background] The client in this recycling case is from Kowloon. An elder in their family had collected a batch of seafood years ago, and these two dried abalones were among the finest pieces. The client stated that these abalones had been stored for many years, but because their family didn't know how to cook them, they were worried about improper storage causing them to spoil. Therefore, they searched online for "Hong Kong abalone recycling" and found Jin Haisheng, hoping to get a professional valuation and realize their value.
[Jin Haisheng Professional Appraisal - Why is this abalone worth such a high price?] After on-site appraisal by Jin Haisheng's professional team, these two dried abalones are highly sought-after in the market. We have offered a very competitive buyback price, mainly based on the following professional assessments:
-
Excellent candy heart effect: As can be seen from the picture, the center of the abalone is a translucent amber color (candy heart), which is a sign that the dried abalone has been aged for a long time. After cooking, it will have a soft, sticky and chewy texture.
-
Distinct skirt characteristics: The skirt around the abalone has very dense and intact spines, without any chips or breaks. This is an important basis for judging the quality of the abalone variety and processing techniques, indicating that it has received excellent care during the sun-drying process.
-
Extremely dry: The abalone is dry, free from mold and insects, and has a rich and pure aroma of dried abalone, rather than a musty smell from dampness, indicating perfect preservation.
-
Plump and full-bodied: The abalone is oval and thick, and is a good quality product in its old packaging.
[Transaction Result] We explained the advantages of this abalone to the client in detail on-site and quoted the highest international market price of the day. The client was very satisfied with our professional knowledge and transparent pricing process, and the cash transaction was completed immediately.
