1.INTRODUCTION

You will be able to access most areas of this Website without registering your details with us. Certain areas of this Website are only open to you if you register with us. We may revise these terms and conditions at any time by updating this posting. You should check this website from time to time to review the then current terms and conditions, because they are binding on you. Certain provisions of these terms and conditions may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices or terms located on particular pages of this website. If you do not wish to accept any new terms and conditions after we have given notice, you should not continue to use this website.

2.ORDERING FROM US

You are deemed to place an order with us by ordering via our shop directly through email or on the phone. Our website acts as a convenient shop window where you can see examples of the type of jewellery products we have for sale.  We have much more than depicted on the website so please make an enquiry about any products you see that you are interested in. 

We may refuse to accept an order:
(a) where goods are not available;

(b) where we cannot obtain authorisation for your payment;

(c) if there has been a pricing or product description error; or

(d) if you do not meet any eligibility criteria set out in our terms and conditions;

(e) If you are ordering from an address outside the UK.

Gift vouchers may only be redeemed in our Rose Crescent, Cambridge shop and not for online purchases and there is no expiry date, they are valid indefinitely.

THESAURUM GOLD EXPLORATION Ltd. Quality

Metal standards of fineness used:
Gold - 18ct only (750) Unless otherwise stated
Silver - Sterling (925)
Platinum - 950

All of our diamonds are a minimum F colour and VVS2 clarity and are guaranteed to be from non-conflict sources. Where a piece has more than one of the same stone, total carat weights will be listed, this is the combined weight of all the stones within the piece. All items are made from castings unless stated as being handmade.

3.PRICING

Please call us for up to date pricing including shipping etc. Our prices include VAT.

DELIVERY

Delivery is made via Royal Mail Special Delivery which should arrive next working day following dispatch.

We currently only deliver to addresses within the UK.

We will only deliver to the billing address registered to the card with which payment is made.

The parcel must be signed for on receipt and this will be used as proof of delivery.

If someone without authority signs for your delivery at the address given by you it will not be the responsibility of THESAURUM GOLD EXPLORATION Ltd..

As items require a signature on delivery, if you should not be available to do this and they are returned to a Royal Mail depot it becomes your responsibility to make arrangements to collect them.

There is a standard delivery charge of £9.95 on all purchases.

Items will only be dispatched once full payment has been received, verified and accepted by ourselves.

We will endeavour to dispatch items within three working days of the order being placed but cannot be held liable for late delivery caused by circumstances beyond our control.

Ring orders: Whilst we will make every effort to size and dispatch a ring within our standard delivery timescale of 3-5 working days, this is not always possible. In the event that the ring has to be remade in order to achieve the correct size, whilst no extra charge will be made the process can take up to 12 weeks. Delivery timescales will be confirmed on recepit of the order.

Whilst every effort is made to maintain stock quantities accurately there may be occasion where this system fails and if for any reason this occurs and we are unable to fulfil your order we will inform you as soon as we become aware of this and provide you with a full refund.

All jewellery is dispatched in a blue THESAURUM GOLD EXPLORATION Ltd. box and silk pouch but NOT gift wrapped. This allows the purchaser to check the items before presenting them as a gift, whilst still coming nicely presented without the need to wrap on receipt.

4. CANCELLATION AND RETURNS POLICY

If you wish to cancel your order:
(a) you can notify us by email at onlineorders@THESAURUM GOLD EXPLORATION Ltd..co.uk before we have dispatched the goods to you; 
(b) where goods have already been dispatched to you, by returning goods to us in accordance with the clause listed below.

You can return goods you have ordered from us for any reason at any time within 30 days of receipt for a full refund or exchange. The costs of returning goods to us shall be borne by you. We will accept returns made by post or through our Rose Crescent, Cambridge shop. If an item is returned through the post please use the printed address label which is sent with your order. It is advisable to obtain postage insurance and to send it Royal Mail Special Delivery which requires us to sign for it on receipt. We cannot be held responsible for any parcels which do not reach us.

Upon receipt of the goods and following a full inspection by ourselves where items are received in the original condition we will give you a full refund of the amount paid or an exchange credit as required. Refunds will be made onto the same card as used for the original purchase.

The rights to return the goods to us as referred to above will not apply in the following circumstances:
If any products have been made or customised specifically for you;
if following our inspection there is deemed to be any damage or wear to the items;
