Returns and exchange details
-Buyers are responsible for returns including shipping fees, any desired insurance/upgrades, and the return arriving safely. Tracking information is required on all returns. Returns must be shipped with an equal or greater shipping method than originally used. Refunds issued upon return will be for the purchase price of the item returned (unless damaged, manipulated, altered, etc.) only.
-Domestic buyers whose orders qualified for “free shipping $35+”: if the entirety of the order is returned OR item/s returned set the original total below $35*, the buyer will then be responsible for the original shipping fee
(i.e. $25 item + $25 ordered = free shipping. If one is returned, the original total=$25, therefore the original shipping fee listed at checkout will be deducted from the refund).
-Contact us prior to returning items. Any items you wish to return must be approved prior to your return. If requested, you must provide a photo of the item/s being returned before shipping. Item must be packed properly. Only after the item/s are returned damage free, the refund will be issued. A refund will not be issued for any returned item that appears different than the photos.
-A restocking fee may be charged to canceled and returned orders. A minimum 10% restocking fee will be charged to one of a kind, high demand, or sold out items.
-In the case that we are our of the office for multiple days and cannot respond to your return request, we will still honor a return.
-No partial returns accepted on parcels, partial refunds will be offered. If multiple items of the same listing are ordered they all must be returned for a refund to be issued, buyers are not permitted to pick or high grade certain items out of "multi-quantity" listings and return others unless agreed upon before purchasing.
Example: if 4 cabochons are purchased, 4 must returned.
If a parcel is returned to us underweight, a refund will not be issued.
In the situation where various grades of the same mineral species or item are purchased (“multi-quantity listings”), the buyer must return the entirety of both items/parcels.
-We do not allow returns until the package has first been delivered to the buyer.
