Worthy

Overall it was a very easy experience. I didn't have to speak to anybody & was updated constantly. It moved very quickly in the beginning but there was some delay at the IGI grading lab. When all was said & done it was abt 2 weeks. What I'm most disappointed abt was the starting offer I received I thought was chosen by a person, but I believe it was just automated by the computer, or Worthy did not care to get max amount of money & just wanted to sell. I accepted the very low starting point of abt $475. Over 120 watchers and ever time I would check on it there would be more watchers. The first sold for $753.75 which was extremely low compared to other rings in same grading scale and my ring was more beautiful & unique than other rings that sold for over $1000. Luckily Worthy decided on their own to extend the auction for another hour or so "due to high demand" and it sold for $978.75. Still below many other plain rings. I think I should've started my auction at about $900. I'm sure there would've been bids. I would've been devastated if my ring only sold for $753.75 or even less! In total I paid over $4k for that ring! At least, in that case, if my auction had never gotten to $900 I would've had the option to sell or not but bc my starting price was so low, I was so close to receiving practically pennies! I think if I would've started my auction at $900 I could've gotten a little more but I trusted this starting auction Worthy gave thinking there would be a lot of bids or they knew best. I would go with your own gut and place your starting point where you wouldn't mind selling your ring for at least that price.

First they ask that they could send my ring over to GIA to get tested. That they would have to remove the diamond to do so. I think it's really weird that they are willing to do this for free. And I've had my ring checked out by several people and they stated that it was a real diamond versus a lab created diamond. But, when it came through for the GIA report it said it was a lab created diamond. Is there a possibility that Worthy could have swapped out the diamond? I don't trust these guys at all. They had my ring over at GIA for almost a week and a half. Finally, it goes into auction. First, let me tell you that this is a diamond that is a carot and a half and also has two pink small diamonds on the side. Also several diamonds throughout the entire ring. It appraised about $15,000. They submitted it through the auction and it had listed the wrong description and only got $230? Around there. Of course I didn't take that value because that seems like they're trying to rip you off and just take the ring. And these auctions don't even seem real. When I asked were the auction site was actually at to where I could sign up for it they couldn't give me any information. Finally, they are shipping the ring back but they're sending it to a weird FedEx location but not provided at tracking number yet and it's been almost 10 days. Why wouldn't they ship it back to my house? Oh they're really going to be shocked if they swapped out the diamond because I actually had a GIA report on it and it proves that it's real. If I get this ring back and it's a fake diamond with a different serial number.I'm going to be going to the police and going to the news. Thanks guys.

They laid out every step clearly and that's exactly how it went! It was quick and we made a little more than if we had sold it to a local jeweler!

The people from WORTHY were helpful and professional. They made selling jewelry easy and I was kept in the loop at every step.

I received emails and texts throughout the whole process. It was very transparent. And it was easy to send it in and recieve payment.

Everyone I interacted with at WORTHY was professional and respectful. The process was just as described.

They made selling my ring so incredibly easy - they handled everything and kept me posted the entire way! Will definitely use them if I have anything else to sell! Thanks again, Abbey!

The process was so easy for me and I always had peace of mind because Worthy updated me every step!

This is a good outlet to sell your jewelry. Keep in mind you need to be realistic with the values

Every step of the way I had detailed information and knowledge about the process! It was so easy!

Amazing info and service
Great updates as process was happening

I was very pleased with worthy. They kept me updated from the finish until the end

MY experience with Worthy was wonderful. I got the money I wanted for the 2 rings I sold.

Worked with Ornella and she was absolutely great to work with. Will be working with her again soon!

A very positive experience. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful.

Easy and very quick process. They did everything they said every step of the way.

From start to finish this experience was great! Easy to work with. Would recommend worthy!

ORNELLA WAS GREAT TO KEEP ME INFORMED OF THE PROCESS AND I THANK HER FOR ALL OF HER ASSISTANCE! VERY PROFESSIONAL!

Please beware of this company. Read the reviews (the real ones) and notice the consistent themes. Worthy reps will convince you to send them your ring and allow them to remove the diamond (they do not mention this until after you send your ring and they give you a substantially low offer). Don't do it! First, you can get a better price from a local jewelry dealer. Be prepared to be shocked by the difference between your insurance appraisal value and how much you are being offered (I was offered 15% of my appraisal value). Your Worthy rep will be available and very responsive up until you ask for them to send you your ring back. Once I made this request, a week went by with no response. I had to eventually ask for a manager and threaten to report my ring stolen. Also, one of the most important things you need to be aware of is how they insure your ring. Once my ring was returned I notice on the slip in the package that instead of my ring being insured for the appraised value ($7500) which is the value I have the ring insured for, it was insured for the value Worthy offered me. If I had known this, I would not have trusted mailing my ring to them in the first place. Finally, the offer they give you after you send your ring will be substantially different from the offer they provide during your initial consultation and their final offer (i. E. $535 vs. $1100). I sold my ring to a reputable local jewelry dealer for the amount Worthy offered during my original consultation (after escalating my case to a manger and threatening to expose this company, the manager was "finally" (again this is part of the game they play) able to get me an offer of the amount they originally quoted during my consultation which I declined since I got the same offer from a local dealer and wouldn't have to give up the 20% Worthy requires. Either way I did not want to do business with this shady company so even if they had increased their offer I would not have accepted it.) Therefore this process was a waste of time and a headache. Had I sold my ring to them I would have gotten between 20% - 50% (20% for the fee they charge; 50% if I had gone with the actual offer after they received my ring) less. So trust me when I say do not waste your time with this company! They lack integrity!

Everything was smooth and I believe I got top dollar for my diamond rings.

Everyone was very knowledgeable and responsive. I was able to sell all my jewelry.

Very helpful, fast turnaround, and they explain the process every step of the way.

The whole process was easy and the company has great communication during each step!
