WARRANTY
Whenever you purchase a loose diamond, Goldbox Jewels makes sure that you are getting the best stone for your budget. Regina, as our Graduate Gemologist, will teach you all you need to know to make the best decision. When we ship, we will ship our lab certificate with the diamond. If you, for any reason, want to exchange the diamond, you will have to ship the lab certificate with it. If not, you will have to pay the replacement fee for the lab certificate, which is equivalent to $150 dlls.
Goldbox Jewels is determined to sell only the finest quality of diamonds available. When we ship our diamonds, especially, and mounted diamonds, the piece becomes the sole responsibility of the customer when the delivery is signed. For 90 days, you can claim that the piece was not made in accordance to what you had in mind and we will gladly return it or fix it according to your wishes. We cannot take back pieces that have been damaged either accidentally or intentionally, or have proof of wear and abuse. We cannot be responsible for stolen items, damage or loss once you have them with you.
GRADING REPORTS AND OUR LABS
We only issue reports by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and European Gemological Laboratories in the USA (EGL USA). This ensures that the quality of our diamonds is the best on the market and that you are indeed, getting a fully certified piece. GIA and EGL USA are recognized all over the world and have the highest standards in diamond grading. You will get one of these reports to ensure the identity and exact standard of your diamond. You do not have to worry that the diamond on the certificate is the matching piece, we at GoldBox Jewels take uttermost pride in our ethical practices. If you wish to have your diamond examined elsewhere, we are not responsible for other results. This is why we only work with top laboratories.
FOR REPAIRING, SIZING AND MANUFACTURING, INCLUDING MEASUREMENTS OF FINISHED PIECES
Even though we have a sizing chart and usually the internet is another source for sizing options, sometimes mistakes are made when it comes to sizing. If you need to re-size your ring, we will gladly do so. Just send it back to returns with the pre-paid USPS return label we provided in your package within the first 30 days of the package’s arrival. We will re-send it for free. If you need to re-size it further, additional fees may apply. If you have decided to make changes on your own, other than with GoldBox Jewels, we cannot guarantee our work and we cannot work on the piece.
When making pieces from scratch, we are always trying to keep within industry standards and measurements. When we give you product measurements, please allow tolerance room of 0.20 mm of our specifications. Sometimes when manufacturing, specially using casts, things can vary from imaging to reality. When specifying carat weight of diamonds, please allow 0.05 cts. Of tolerance and when measuring gemstones a tolerance of 0.25 mm is allowed.
When you buy a finished piece, we state the total diamond weight of all the diamonds included in it. This total weight can vary as each piece is set with different diamonds. All of our pieces are set with same quality in grading, except when the diamond size changes above 10 pts. The average quality of our pave diamonds is G-H color, SI1 quality. Our customers can also ask for better material when asked. Just let us know your wishes.
