Returns & Exchanges

 Friendly Reminder
We value every customer worldwide and are committed to resolving any concerns with 100% dedication to your satisfaction. To maintain a positive and safe environment, we do not tolerate racist remarks, libelous comments, false reviews, harassment, or threats directed towards our staff or our brand. All issues, including order concerns or unforeseen delays, can be effectively resolved through respectful communication with our team. We are here to help and kindly request that all interactions are conducted with courtesy. Let's all be kind.

Chargeback and Friendly Fraud
If you have any questions or concerns about your order, please contact our team as soon as possible. We're here to help. Please note that many of our items are handcrafted, and production times can vary from 3 to 20 business days, depending on the complexity of the design or any custom requests.

To ensure a smooth process, we kindly ask that you contact us directly if you have any concerns about your order, rather than initiating a chargeback or dispute. We're committed to working with you to resolve any issues and avoid unnecessary complications. We understand that issues can arise. However, it's important to be aware that initiating a false chargeback can have legal consequences. Our legal team monitors all chargebacks including friendly fraud. To learn more, click here. Our goal is always to resolve any concerns directly with you to avoid such situations.

Military & Affordability Wedding Ring Program

We are proud to offer a program providing complimentary wedding rings to qualifying U.S. military service members and individuals who may not otherwise be able to afford one. If you believe you qualify for this initiative, please contact our team for more information and assistance with your request.

Craftmanship
The majority of our jewelry is meticulously made-to-order by our professional jewelers. Each piece is handcrafted with passion and designed to be cherished for a lifetime. Our personalization service includes intricate details such as CAD drawings, unique wax models, custom molds, and precisely cut gemstones. Due to this detailed, custom crafting process, production time typically ranges from 3 to 20 business days.

30-Day Money-Back Guarantee 
We want you to feel comfortable and confident shopping with us. For most regular orders, you may return or exchange an unused item in its original condition within 30 days from the original delivery date. Please note that re-shipping an item does not extend this 30-day return period. You can initiate a self-serve return or exchange by logging into your account or by contacting our team.

This guarantee does NOT cover the following items, for which all sales are final:

  • Custom-made-to-order jewelry
  • VIP orders
  • Pieces under "Till Death Do Us Part" and "Video Games Inspired" collections
  • Customized jewelry and personalized items
  • Masks, eye masks, and candle gift sets

All approved returns and exchanges must be shipped within 7 days once the RMA# is generated and received by us within the 30-day return window. If an error was made by us, we will either reship a new item or issue a refund, and you may keep the original item unless an inspection is required.

Returns & Exchanges Conditions

Returns:

  1. Returns are accepted within 30 days from the original order's delivery date. Requests beyond this period will be declined.

How do I return an item?
All return requests require approval from our team to ensure faster refunds or exchanges. Please email support@blackdiamondsnewyork.com with photos or a short video of the item(s) you wish to return for initial assessment. An RMA# will be generated once your request meets our return policy criteria.

Important Note: Do not return your order to the address on your package. This is a fulfillment address and will delay or prevent the processing of your return. Always wait for our specific return instructions.

Can I return my custom-made/made-to-order jewelry?
No. All sales are final for custom-made, made-to-order jewelry, and other personalized items. This includes jewelry with unique customizations such as inscriptions, personalized names, photos, custom ring sizes, gem colors, stone sizes, and metal finishes, as well as VIP/customized orders. These items are specially handcrafted for you, involving upfront costs for special diamonds, materials, and custom-cut stones based on your exact instructions. If the error was made by us, we will send you the correct order or issue a refund, and you may keep the item unless an inspection is needed.

Do you provide return labels?
Yes. We provide free return labels for items that were damaged in transit or for incorrect shipments. If you made an error in your purchase (e.g., incorrect item, color, size) or simply changed your mind, you are welcome to return the item within 30 days with the tag intact and all original accessories (including free jewelry). However, the return shipping label will be at your own expense.

Can I exchange my item for a different size/design?

Yes, you can. However, you will be responsible for the return shipping and will be subject to a resizing or exchange fee of 25%, as they are made individually for each customer and to the exact specifications that you provide to us. We cannot simply turn around and resell them if the ring doesn't fit or you do not like it. Most rings also have inlays or sleeves and cannot be resized without remaking the ring entirely. This fee will cover part of the cost of a brand-new ring in a new size. Note that all sales are final, and you cannot exchange or return the following:

  • Custom made-to-order pieces
  • Solid gold and platinum with precious stones
  • Gift set
  • Flash Sale or clearance items
  • Candles
  • Masks
  • Mask accessories
  • Personalized items

    I have an issue with my product; what should I do?
    If you encounter an issue with your product, we are 100% committed to helping you. Please email support@blackdiamondsnewyork.com with a photo or short video of the product. Once the issue is confirmed, we will promptly reship a new item or issue a full refund. You may keep the item unless an inspection is required.

    Can I return my jewelry for a refund if the plating has faded?
    No, faded plating does not qualify for a refund. Plating (including rose gold, yellow gold, rhodium, or black plating over silver or other metals, excluding solid gold) is a temporary finish and is expected to fade over time. Proper care can significantly extend its lifespan, and we recommend extra care for all jewelry, fine or fashion. While not eligible for a refund, we will do our best to resolve the issue, potentially offering a re-shipment or complimentary professional service, depending on the item's condition.

    Can I return my jewelry if it's bent, damaged, or if one of the stones falls off?
    Absolutely. You can return your jewelry for a free repair within 30 days from the day you receive it if it's bent, damaged, or if a stone falls off. However, items showing signs of modification, abuse, or damage beyond normal wear, as determined by our jewelry professionals, will not be accepted for free repair and may be subject to a quotation. For missing stones reported after 30 days, repairs will also be subject to a quotation depending on the total carat. Issues falling under normal wear and tear are covered by our warranty.

    Can I return eye masks and masks?
    Unfortunately, due to the nature of these products, we do not accept returns or exchanges for eye masks and masks for sanitary and safety reasons.

    ADDITIONAL RETURN POLICY

    Designer Jewelry, Gothic Rings, and Solid Gold
    All pieces from our Designer Collection, "Till Death Do Us Part" rings, "Video Game Inspired" rings, and solid gold collections, as well as customized jewelry (e.g., with engraving, special sizes, plating changes, stone color changes) are made to order with precious metals and gemstones. Therefore, these items cannot be exchanged or returned for a change of mind; all sales are final. If the error was made by us, we will send you the correct order or issue a refund, and you may keep the item unless an inspection is needed.

    If the wrong size is ordered for these specific items, you may send the jewelry back for resizing. You will be responsible for the return shipping and a 35% resizing fee, which covers shipping and part of the production costs, and labor. These items cannot be restocked due to their customization or rarity. Contact our team at support@blackdiamondsnewyork.com before proceeding to confirm if your item qualifies for a return or resizing.
