Smart Jewelry Consignment
Last updated: March 03, 2020
If you’re looking to sell jewelry on consignment, you’ve come to the right place. Worthy is an online auction house where you can essentially consign your jewelry but for a much shorter period of time, and with much higher chances of selling at a high offer. Rather than consigning your jewelry in a local shop where it might sit collecting dust for months before selling, take advantage of our online marketplace, where it will be exposed to buyers from all over the world. We are fully committed to obtaining the highest price possible for each and every valuable we accept, and to ensuring the process is simple yet completely secure.
How is Worthy Better Than Traditional Jewelry Consignment?
Selling jewelry with Worthy gives you the benefits of consignment and much more. Not only will your jewelry sell faster, but chances are that it will sell for more without you even leaving your home.
Here are the reasons why Worthy is the smarter jewelry consignment option:
Active vs Passive Selling. From the moment your jewelry pieces arrive at Worthy, our experts are taking steps to get you more for them. First, your jewelry is cleaned and photographed in high quality HD so that it will shine at auction. Then, your pieces are authenticated and graded. Once the auction begins, relevant buyers are invited to compete for your item. No more sitting in a store collecting dust!
Transparent Process. When you sell jewelry with Worthy, you will be provided with all of the information needed to proceed with confidence and trust. You will know the status of your jewelry auction, every step of the way. After your jewelry is graded and authenticated, you will be able to view the full detailed report, helping you understand the characteristics of your pieces. Before heading to auction, you have the opportunity to set a minimum reserve price. If the auction ends below that amount, you have the option to request the return of your item.
Competitive Auction. As you may know, jewelry stores do not have consistent foot traffic and the likelihood of customers seeing your consignment jewelry is generally low. Worthy's auction platform showcases your jewelry pieces to professional buyers actively seeking out items like yours. Simply put, we bring the market to you and increase your chances of higher offers.
