“AVOID AT ALL COSTS!”

Fay P.
3/9/24

They lost two of my rings in transit and refuse to provide any documentation or to give me the fair value for my rings. It's been almost six months of an absolute dumpster fire. They won't respond unless you hound them, and they talk down to you when you try and get any information from them. They're supposed to have insurance for jewelry when you send it in to them through FedEx and then separate insurance to protect your jewelry through the whole process, but the way they're reacting it making it sound like they have no insurance at all. It feels a lot like they only have one or two employees and that there's no actual professional working with or for them. I never saw a gemologist report from the ring I first sold with them, even though it was supposed to be provided. And now magically my information from the one ring I sold with them last summer and the information on both of their rings has been "accidentally" deleted from their website.

Worthy was incredibly helpful with my 2 carat oval. Vera actively communicated with me and the team constantly updated me throughout the process to give real time feedback. I got tremendous value, significantly better than other of the other alternatives I pursued. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Worthy to anyone interested in their services.

Everything was super easy! 😀 Just had to buy a box. Worthy gave me a shipping label. There was great communication each time the ring was either graded, cleaned, photographed, auctioned and lastly the money that was transferred into my account. I was disappointed the sale was not for more. However, that was not Worthy's fault. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

I had never had any experience selling jewelry before I decided to give Worthy a try. The two pieces I sold had no sentimental value, so I wasn't nervous more curious. I can't say enough about Christine and her team. Once the items were in their hands, they saw to the appraisal, the cleaning, the photos and the auction. One item sold over reserve and they kept the bidding open for an extra period of time to ensure I got the highest amount possible.
If you're considering selling unused or unwanted pieces, I highly recommend Christine and the folks at Worthy.

Tip for consumers:
Worthy takes care of shipping your jewelry to them via FedEx. They make it so easy!

I was hesitant to sell through an online company, but after research and being able to speak with Rachel, she was able to answer all of my questions and set my mind at ease. The process was very easy. It did take a little bit of time, but all in all everything went smoothly. I was able to sell my ring and have the money deposited in my account within a few weeks. I would definitely work with Worthy again!

Hello Fay,

We acknowledge and understand the seriousness of the concerns you have raised. To confirm, a member of our team has been in direct contact with you since the concerns with your jewelry's shipment were first observed. As a reminder, you can still view the FedEx tracking ending in -0711 on fedex.com to confirm that FedEx initially received your package. Unfortunately in light of there being no additional movement on the tracking, FedEx ultimately concluded your package as a loss after they were unable to locate it.

Although it is extremely rare for a package to go missing while being shipped by FedEx, we have insurance coverage in place for this very reason. Our insurance policy provides coverage reflective of the services we offer. As pre-owned jewelry being sold through a secondary market, jewelry is eligible for coverage up to its current resale value. Documentation such as a detailed purchase receipt or a grading report highlighting your jewelry's unique characteristics greatly help in substantiating the claim and determining an accurate resale value range. It is important to note that you were requested to provide any available documentation however we have only received photos of the two rings you indicated you shipped to this point.

When reviewing your past communication with our team, we can confirm you were advised of the steps we would be taking to investigate the concerns and to assist you further. In light of the severely limited information available for your jewelry, this did influence what steps our team could take. We're sincerely sorry if any past explanations did not thoroughly address all of the questions or concerns you've had. A senior member of our support team will be following up with you directly to discuss this further and determine the most appropriate path forward in getting it resolved.

Thank you,

Worthy Team

Had a Rolex watch that I wasn't wearing but once or twice a year, I saw the Worthy ad on TV so I decided to check what I could sell it for at a few local jewelry stores. I called Worthy they helped me with process and was surprised how smooth everything went and received more than any local store offered.

These folks hounded me to get my engagement ring shipped to them, only to offer me a very small fraction of the value. Complete waste of time and then they shipped the ring back to the wrong address, so now I am left trying to track down my ring. Very disappointed in the level of service. Do not waste your time.

Hello Myisha,

Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. With the limited information available, we are not confident we have located your account and have requested more information from you. Once received, a senior member of our team will follow up with you directly to discuss your concerns further.

For any jewelry that has not successfully sold through our platform, our sellers are asked to confirm the return location where the jewelry will be shipped, free of charge. This action can be taken easily through the account and sellers are prompted to select either the closest approved FedEx location or provide an alternate address for a direct return. Based on the selection confirmed by the seller, our team will then proceed to carefully package and ship the jewelry to the designated location. Please note, in order to maintain insurance coverage, we strongly encourage for all returned valuables to be shipped to a FedEx-operated center where they will be held securely until pickup.

Once we have confirmed your account details we will not hesitate to look into this matter further with you in order to determine where things may have gone wrong and the appropriate steps to make it right.

We look forward to connecting with you directly and getting this resolved!

Thank you,

Worthy Support Team

I was skeptical at first because I wasn't familiar with Worthy. After reading reviews and checking their rating on BBB; I was confident enough to take a chance. I'm glad I did. Worthy communicated with me almost daily concerning the status of my ring. Within a week my ring was sold and in two days I received payment for auctioning my ring. I highly recommend Worthy.

I sent them a ring that has recently been purchased for $6k….I needed the money more than the ring so I gave them a shot. They appraised it and put it up for auction.
They recommended a "reserve price" of $343 and said that I shouldn't make it any higher than that or the ring won't sell. Me being naive, and having no experience with auctions I went with it. The auction lasted several days and the final bid at the end was $443. When I asked for my ring back, they said it was no longer in their possession.

I'm absolutely devastated! If I would have known that ring would've went for a measly $400 I would have just kept it. DO NOT TRUST THEM WOTH YOUR JEWELRY! I wish I'd read the reviews beforehand…now someone has a $6k ring for $400. Thanks Worthy. After their fees I got a little over $300.

Hi Natalie,

As part of preparing your jewelry for auction, your ring was professionally cleaned and photographed by our expert team, and your center diamond was graded by the GIA, an industry-leading expert in diamond grading. Our recommended reserve price was determined by comparing the objective third-party grading report for your diamond and auction performance for jewelry pieces of comparable components and quality. As a reminder, you were given complete control to start your auction at our suggested amount or to set your own reserve price. Prior to starting your auction, you were required to acknowledge your understanding that once an offer meets or exceeds your set reserve price, the sale is final.

Although we were able to help you reach an offer that exceeded the reserve price you set, we are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the outcome of your auction. With that said, we also stand by our completely risk-free process that allows you to decide the minimum amount your jewelry sells for, regardless of the current market demand. All unsold jewelry is returned at no cost, in the same condition originally received.

To ensure you have realistic expectations when selling pre-owned jewelry, it is important to first understand that in a resale market, it is very likely for diamond jewelry to be sold for a significantly lower amount than what was originally paid. Retail prices commonly include markups for any overhead costs and profit margins that do not transfer over to a secondary market. These added costs are not part of a jewelry piece's intrinsic value and therefore will likely not be part of what a buyer will consider paying. Market demand can also shift over time, changing what buyers are looking for and what they are willing to pay for certain characteristics.

A member of our leadership team has already connected with you however in light of your recent feedback, we will have another member of our team follow up with you directly to ensure any remaining concerns have been addressed.

Thank you,

Worthy Team
