If, having contacted you and informed you that your Goods are at a higher price than that stated on the website, you then cancel your order and you have already paid for the Goods, you will receive a full refund. Where we cancel an order in this way you agree that we will have no further liability to you, and that we will not be obliged to supply Goods unless you submit a further Order to us.

3. DELIVERY

3.1 Delivery charges and estimated timescales are specified when you place an order. We make every effort to deliver goods within the estimated timescales specified in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, within a reasonable time from the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances. Delays are occasionally inevitable due to unforeseen factors. Diamond Rocks shall be under no liability for any delay or failure to deliver the products within estimated timescales. Orders can be collected by hand, directly from us, with an appropriate proof of identity such as passport or driving licence.

3.2 Risk of loss and damage of products passes to you on the date when the products are delivered.

3.3 In general the delivering agent will be: a) Royal Mail special delivery service for the United Kingdom (including the outer British Isles and Northern Ireland addresses); b) FedEx  secure delivery for any other country worldwide; c) In special circumstances, the delivery agent may be a different agent, nominated by Diamond Rocks.

3.4 The delivery address is provided by you when placing the order. Goods are deemed to be delivered when:

a) our delivering agent delivers them to the delivery address (signature of a delivery note will be requested at your specified delivery address).

b) In the case attempted delivery (without success) the Goods will be deemed to have been delivered when you collect them from the indicated collection address. You are required to collect the Goods within 5 working days from receiving the notification the Goods are awaiting collection. Once the 5 working days have elapsed, Goods will be deemed rejected and we will retake possession. You will then be refunded the cost of the Goods less the cost of delivery and any costs charged to us by the relevant carrier for return (in the event that the Goods are bespoke/customised, we reserve the right to refund the cost of the item only, and not the cost of the bespoke services rendered in the making of that item).

4. CANCELLATION

4.1 If you are contracting as a consumer, you may, subject to clause 4.3 below, cancel a Contract as follows:

a) If the value of the Goods is greater than £25,000, at any time within 14 days, beginning on the day after you received the Goods. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Goods, but not the cost of delivery, in accordance with our returns policy (set out in clause 5 below). Please note if the item is viewed in-store or collected in-store, the item cannot be returned;

b) If the value of the Goods is less or equal to £ 25,000, at any time within 30 days, beginning on the day after you received the Goods. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Goods, but not the cost of delivery, in accordance with our returns policy (set out in clause 5 below);

Please note that, where you return Goods to us you are responsible for the cost of delivering them back to us. You will be responsible for the full cost of those Goods if they are lost or stolen during their return journey to us, so we recommend that you use a tracked delivery service which is insured appropriately.

4.2 To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Goods to us as soon as reasonably practical but no longer than 5 working days, and at your own cost. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Goods while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation or if the Goods are damaged while they are in your possession, we have the right to reduce your refund by a sum appropriate to compensate us for the reduced value of the goods.

Exceptions to your usual Cancellation Rights

4.3 You will not have a right to cancel a Contract for supply of any Goods in any of the following circumstances:

a) The Goods have been customised from their original state (Bespoke) as displayed on our website to your specific requirements. This would, for example, include a piece of jewellery that we have created for you by setting a stone that you have purchased from us in a particular setting;

b) A piece of jewellery that you have commissioned us to make and in respect of which you have accepted the bespoke designs (usually in the form of 3D Model screenshots);

5.1 If you return Goods because you have cancelled the Contract pursuant to clause 4 above we will process the refund as soon as possible and, in any case, within 14 days of the day on which either (a) we receive the Goods back from you, or (b) on which you supply us with evidence that you have returned the Goods to us. In this case, we will refund the price of the Goods in full (minus the cost of any expedited delivery options, or the cost of any damage or wear that you have caused to the Goods), and any applicable delivery charges. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Goods to us and insuring them while in transit. The cost will vary depending on the country where the item is dispatched from as well as the value of the item.

5.3 Returns of faulty orders which you return to us within six months of delivery will be confirmed only where you have returned the item with its certificate where applicable. The following costs will be for your account in relation to returned items:

a) Non-return of the certificate will be charged at £400 plus VAT for a replacement certificate;

b) If the item has, in our reasonable opinion, been worn and shows signs of general wear and tear we will be entitled to reduce your refund by a value that represents the loss of value caused to the item by that wear and tear;

c) If the item has, in our reasonable opinion, been damaged by you in a way that is not the result of reasonable wear and tear, then we may decline to offer you a refund and will notify you of the cost of repairing the item.

d) If you wish to return a faulty item after six months has passed after delivery, the item must be provided unworn and free from wear and tear. In the event that such an item is not provided in its original condition we reserve the right to refuse a refund and, instead, to quote you for the price of repairing the item.

5.4 All returns are subject to anti-fraud verification and authentication by Diamond Rocks. Purchased items with any element of personalisation, engraving, bespoke items, designs by or for the client are non-refundable. For Health and Safety reasons, earrings will not be considered for return. For security reasons we recommend that you do not use the name Diamond Rocks anywhere on the packaging of your returned item because it includes the term “diamonds”. To arrange a return we would require you to contact Diamond Rocks who will provide you with further instructions. Note: Diamond Rocks will not be responsible for loss or damage of return shipments. We cannot be held liable for any loss or damage you may suffer as a result of your return or late delivery or cancellation of your order, so we advise that you retain all proof of posting documentation.
