We'd love it if you shared it!

This post is brought to you by Worthy.com.

Have you ever bought or sold something as part of an online auction? If you have then you probably know that things aren’t always what they seem. As a seller it’s never a happy moment when you learn that your winning bidder doesn’t in fact have the funds to pay for the item. As a buyer it’s never fun to receive the item you bid on only to find out that it is not what you expected it to be. When you are buying or selling an item of substantial value you want to be sure everything is as it should be. Worthy can help with that.

Worthy.com is a place where you can sell your valuables in an online auction. Worthy only handles auctions for pre-owned luxury items. These are items valued $1,000 or higher, including items such as jewelry, diamonds, gemstones, watches and precious metals. Worthy limits the types of items it hold auctions for in order to maintain a high level of quality and customer satisfaction. By limiting the types of items the Worthy professionals can focus on items that they know their buyers are looking for.

Now, Worthy.com isn’t just any auction site. Worthy does a lot of legwork for you. Once you’ve decided you’re going to sell an item you send Worthy a photo and description of it. Worthy takes that info and searches recent auctions to see how those items sold and presents that information to you. If after receiving your market estimate you want to proceed you send Worthy the item you want to auction off. They handle the overnight shipping free of charge and insure the item as well. If you have any questions at any point there are consultants available by telephone, email and chat to help you through the process.

Once Worthy receives the item it is logged in so it can be tracked and monitored at any time. The item will then be evaluated, professionally cleaned, photographed.  The evaluation is done to ensure that the item is actually what you say it is. A detailed description of your item compiling that information will be put together for the actual auction. Then Worthy starts hunting for people that would be interested in bidding on your item.

Once the bidding starts there is no need for you to worry about a buyer as you might on other auction sites, because all of the buyers have been vetted and are aware that bids are binding. You can monitor bidding in real-time. At the end of the auction you’ll receive a summary and final offer. If you accept you receive your proceeds immediately. If you for some reason choose not to accept the final offer then you item will be returned to you free of charge.

Here’s a brief video explaining how it works a bit better.
