Worthy.com was founded in 2014 by current CEO Ben De Kalo. When De Kalo and his wife wanted to sell some diamond jewelry, they quickly discovered that their options were limited.
The company operates an online marketplace for luxury items, including diamond jewelry, watches, and other valuables.
Worthy connects buyers and sellers on a safe online marketplace. Sellers send their items to Worthy, where they are appraised for value and guaranteed to be valid gems.
The company assumes all the risk, insuring items through Llyods of London, free evaluation and grading of the items, and free FedEx insured shipping.
As offers from vetted professionals come in, sellers decide what offer to accept. Once the auction has concluded, sellers will receive the final sale amount minus the Worthy commission.
In a Forbes interview, De Kalo states that he likes to think of Worthy as a mining operation for old diamonds.
Worthy maintains a corporate office in New York, New York.

You have great sales presentation and presenters but you have lousy follow up after one submits his or her piece to be sold. Also, you need to allow for comments on your submittal page for total carat weight not just the main stone. I submitted a request for you to sell a ring for me that has 2.0 carats of diamonds plus and after my submittal to you (Aug 9), I’ve had no contact from you on what to do next if anything. I do know that your team of experts have to look at what was submitted, but you need to let your clients know what is going on. I was a marketing manager for many, many years and I made sure my Customer Service Department did their follow up promptly.
