Worthy Corporate Office

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.

De Kalo states that he believes there is more than $1 trillion in diamonds sitting in drawers or jewelry boxes around the world and he wants to sell it all.

Worthy maintains a corporate office in New York, New York.

Shift Corporate Office

Toby Russell thinks nothing is more stressful than buying a new or even a used car. With new car buying stuck in the analog age of the 1960s, Russell and his friend George Arison set out to create a new platform.

Shift.Com was founded in 2014. The company operates an online marketplace where clients can shop for a used car or sell their car online.

Russell believes that buying or selling a car has many obstacles that using an online marketplace removes, such as women being ripped off or men feeling less than adequate because they don’t want to buy a huge truck or if they can’t buy a top of the line model.

Buyers and sellers never meet. Buyers see a car, they ask a Shift.Com employee to bring them the car so they can test drive it and look it over. If they want to buy it, the employee has a tablet with financing options or a platform is available to pay from the seller’s bank. If the client doesn’t want the car, it is returned to stock.

Clients can also get a manufacturer-style, like-new warranty. There are multiple lending options and a totally transparent price. There’s no negotiation, no haggling, and clients can do it from their driveway, work, or wherever they would like to meet. 

Russell noted that during the pandemic, most people were buying new cars due to the many financing offers of zero percent interest.

In February 2023, the company announced that it would close all east coast stores that came with its merger of CarLotz. The store leases, inventory, and related assets in Richmond, VA, Charlottesville, VA, and Tampa, FL, will be assumed by a local dealership group. The stores in Midlothian, VA, Charlotte, NC, and Greensboro, NC will be closed, effective today.

Shift.Com maintains a corporate office building in San Francisco, California.
