How to pack and return your jewelry

1. First, please always make sure you get an RMA# from us! Here is a checklist for a proper return:
   • RMA# written OUTSIDE the box, and is clearly visible.
   • Package is insured for the full value of the items
   • A NEW BOX is used for return.
   • No jewelry related word on the box.

2. NEVER return your jewelry item in an envelope! Even if it's shipped to you in a bubble mailer or Fedex Express© envelope, you have to return it in a box (ideally double boxed) for a secure delivery. And NEVER ship a jewelry item back in a USED box. ANY ITEM RETURNED IN AN ENVELOPE OR USED BOX OR WITHOUT RMA# WILL BE REJECTED! Thank you for your cooperation.
