Delivery & Returns

 

Delivery

We aim to deliver goods to you within the time indicated by us in our acceptance but we cannot give an exact delivery date. We aim to inform you within 3 days of placing your order (often much sooner and typically within 24hrs) if it is likely that we will experience any delay with your order.

Please ensure that your delivery address is correct on the order form as a re-delivery fee will be payable for items that are not correctly addressed.

Orders sent to a work address or different from the billing address are done so at the customers own risk as deliveries can be accepted by work colleagues or associates and are relied upon to pass the parcel to the addressee.

We will arrange for delivery of the goods by Royal Mail or other services via a method suitable to the value of the goods. Postage and packing will be payable as set out below:

  • FREE UK Royal Mail Special Delivery or Royal Mail Signed For Delivery at our discretion for all items
  • Royal Mail International Special Delivery insured for all items - £20.00

Any delay in delivery

If we have not delivered the goods by the date given in our T&C’s or any other date that we have agreed with you then you may not cancel the order unless and until you have given us 14 days’ written notice requiring the delivery to be made and we have not fulfilled the delivery within that period.

We will not be held liable for late delivery of goods caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Before signing for your package, please ensure that it is not ruptured or damaged. We cannot be held responsible for theft or loss once you have signed for your package.

  • Plain rings: £15.00
  • Others: £25.00

A delivery charge of £15.00 will apply if the order is to be shipped outside of the UK and £10.00 within the UK.

Your right to cancel

If you are a consumer (i.e. You are not purchasing either wholly or in part for your business or you are not a business) you have the right, in addition to your other rights, to cancel the contract (other than for personalised or commissioned/bespoke products) and receive a refund from us. You must inform us in writing if you wish to cancel within 28 days, starting on the day after the goods are delivered to you.

If you choose to cancel then you must return the goods to us at your cost and risk (unless the return is due to an oversight on our part) and we advise you to ensure the goods are adequately insured during the return journey. You must ensure that you take reasonable care of the goods. If you fail to assume the costs of returning the items we will make an additional charge to you for the costs we incur.

If you have not returned the goods within 28 days of cancellation or when requested by us to do so, whichever occurs first, we can collect the goods from you at your cost. Before returning any item, please contact us in order to establish the return procedure. Please e-mail customerservices@davidgilbertjewellery.com or call 01970 627754 for more information.
