Terms & Conditions
1. Delivery: We make all jewellery to order, so please allow up to 28 days for delivery, although we of course aim to send you your order as soon as possible. Your parcel will require a signature on receipt. All payments must be received and authorised before shipment.
2. Packaging: Depending on its size, your jewellery will be sent to you in an Alexandra Simpson box or a pouch. Please be assured that we always package our items securely and safely.
3. Prices: Our jewellery is charged at the price shown on the product page on the date you place your order. Prices shown include VAT if applicable, but do not include delivery, which will be quoted at the payment stage of your order. Errors and omissions are excepted. Orders will be processed at our published prices, otherwise, in the case of any unexpected change in price, you will be informed and asked if you wish to reconsider your order before proceeding. All prices are stated in British Pounds Sterling. Please note that in some countries additional duties may be payable to your local tax authorities on receipt of your delivery. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Do contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order. Please also note that you must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Products are destined. We will not be liable for any breach by you of any such laws.
4. Payment method: By credit card. Please use the ‘contact us’ link should you want to pay by bank transfer. We use an external provider, PayPal, for the processing of your payments. As part of your ordering process, your will be redirected to the PayPal website. We therefore do not store your credit card details.
5. Returns and refunds: All of Alexandra Simpson’s jewellery is hand made specially to your requirements, so we are unable to offer refunds, unless the item is faulty. They must be sent back in their original, unworn condition. Should you receive a faulty or damaged item, please notify us within seven days by emailing info@alexandrasimpson.com quoting your name and address, details of the product, the damage or fault, and whether you require a refund or replacement. We will then advise on how to proceed with the return.
The item is your responsibility until it reaches us. For your own protection, we recommend that you send the parcel using a delivery service that insures you for the value of the goods. We cannot be held responsible for returns that are lost in transit.
Your postage costs will not be refunded unless the item you received is faulty (and provided we are notified of faults within 7 days of receipt).
All products to be returned must be carefully repackaged in their original packing and be in an unworn condition. We will not exchange goods that have been worn, do not have their original packaging or show obvious signs of abuse. In this instance, the goods will be returned to the buyer at their own cost. In the interests of fraud prevention, your refund will be issued by the same method that you paid within 14 days of receipt of the return.
6. Sizes: When ordering rings, it your responsibility to ensure that you have ordered the correct size. A ring ordered in the incorrect size can be re-sized, but this will be subject to a charge. Please use our ring size chart to ensure you are ordering the correct size, and indicate the ring size in the ‘order comments’ section of our checkout page.
7. Deliveries: We send our product using the UK’s Royal Mail. Late Deliveries: if your delivery has been delayed, then please contact us and we will provide you with the tracking number to enable you to check its status with Royal Mail. International delivery: when we send a parcel abroad, the actual delivery of the item will be the responsibility of the postal service in the country the items are going to. Delays can often be caused by customs checks, which can sometimes take up to 1-2 weeks. Items not received but tracked as being delivered: this frequently happens when items are delivered to places of work. In some cases, your item might have been delivered to a post room or colleague within your company and someone else will have signed for it. In these cases, you can view the proof of delivery signature online, or in some cases for a small charge you can request a proof of delivery certificate from Royal Mail (www.royalmail.com) by filling in a signature request form. Please note that we do not refund or replace items that are tracked as being delivered. For this reason, we always recommend that you get items delivered to your home address. We cannot refund or replace lost items until 20 working days after the date of despatch (30 days for international items) – this is when the UK’s Royal Mail classes items as being lost.
