“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.

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!

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.

I wasn't sure exactly what was going to happen when we sent in the diamond ring. But I was pleasantly surprised by the attention to detail that Worthy provided. Keeping us informed as to what was happening and when the ring went to auction each bid that happened. It was a great experience.

Plenty of communication during the phases of sending/receiving my items and during the selling process. Once my items sold, however, all communication from Worthy ceased. They quote a time frame of 3-5 days to receive your payment once the item sells. On day four I called for an update and was told that I would receive payment on the next day, the fifth day. On the fifth day, I called and was told that it was too late in the day (4PM) because "finance closes at 5:30pm" but that I may still receive payment that day but it would certainly be by the next day, the 6th day. On the 6th day, I chose not to wait until the end of the day to call. When I called I was told that I would receive payment in the next 1-2 business days (today is Friday, Monday would be the 9th day). I was told that there was no one to escalate my phone call to when I asked for a manager. I was told there were no guarantees about when I would receive the funds. I have now been told three days in a row that I would receive the funds that day or the next day and now on the third day the story is it will be another one to two more days. I've lost confidence in anything they tell me at this point and am wondering if I'll get my money without taking further steps. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE ENTIRE PROCESS is the part they can't get right. Of course, they've received their payment.

Hi Beth,

Congratulations on the recent sale of two of your jewelry pieces. Once again, we appreciate having had the opportunity to partner with you in their sales.

The sale of your ring was finalized on December 27th and the sale of your watch was finalized on December 29th. Payments for successful sales are normally issued within 5 business days of the sale being finalized however the recent holiday created some delay in the processing time. Proceeds for both sales were issued to you on January 5th which would have been within the normal timeframe for the watch's payment. We sincerely apologize for the slight delay in the payment of your ring and for any confusion that led to such a poor experience.

We're hopeful you have since received the funds but your bank may require 1 additional business day to process the payment on their end. To ensure we have thoroughly addressed this with you, you can expect to hear from a senior member of our team today.

Thank you,

Worthy Team

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

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 was very leery to send my mom's wedding set off in the mail to be sold, but Worthy proved there is nothing to be afraid of. My personal representative contacted me every step of the way not only by email, but also by phone. The price I received was fair and comparable, and actually slightly higher, than what I was quoted at a local jewelry store. The experience was top-notch, I would recommend selling your jewelry through them.

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,
