Return and Refund Policy: All returns must have prior written approval by JEWELRY STAR. The approval for a return of product will be at the discretion of JEWELRY STAR.

Upon an approval of return, JEWELRY STAR will issue a ‘Return Goods Authorization’ (RGA) number that must accompany the return shipment.

Prior to any refund, JEWELRY STAR will inspect and determine final condition of the product, which may result in the denial of the return of the product.

In all cases, JEWELRY STAR retains the right to reject, refuse, or exclude the return of any product.

Pick Up In Store: If you select Pick Up In Store as a delivery method, we will need time to prepare the order. If the order is time-critical, we recommend that you call the branch to find out how soon it can be available.
