      I ordered a necklace for my daughter's graduation and paid for express shipping. The necklace did not arrive in the time frame promised. I contacted the company and they refunded me the express shipping, but that did not fix the problem of missing her graduation date. When I received the necklace it was not attractive at all so we returned it well within the return policy guidelines and followed the company's instructions exactly. I never received a refund so I emailed on several occasions and kept getting automated responses saying they were working on my return. Finally, after I emailed several times, I got an automated message that my return package was empty and was being turned over to "claims". I kept emailing claims and they never got back to me so I am now disputing the charge with ****. I also called the company phone number which is virtually impossible to find and is not on their website nor will be provided by their ChatBot-- I ultimately had to get it off my Amex bill -- but the phone is constantly busy.Terrible Terrible customer ********** NOT buy from this company.

      Hello,

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We understand how important it was for your jewelry to arrive in time for your daughter's graduation, and we are truly sorry that we missed the mark.

      GLD strives to assist every customer inquiry as promptly as possible - Our Claims team typically follows up within ***** hours to ensure thorough assistance.  It's important to note that each time a new email is sent, it can unintentionally reset your ticket in the queue, causing additional delays. This certainly does not excuse the extended time it has taken to resolve your issue, and we again sincerely apologize.

      Rest assured we are looking into your situation further and will follow up with you directly via email to ensure this is rectified as quickly as possible. I appreciate your patience as we work to make things right.

      This company is trash. My necklace lost a stone after only wearing it a few times. I ordered a custom ************ got wet from rain & was ruined. The picture faded & the glass got cloudy. I literally wore it for less than two hours. Horrible. I have better products Ive bought dirt cheap off Amazon. The return policy is trash too. They tell you everything is under warranty, but the warranty is void if the item has been worn! And they will charge you back for every return if it qualifies. I still cant find out how to leave a review on their webpage!DO NOT buy from this company. If you dont believe me do a simple ******* search. Youll see jewelers test the product and show they arent even made with real precious metals. Total scam.

      Hello,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm truly sorry to hear about the issues youve encountered with your custom pendant and understand how frustrating it must have been to see it get damaged from the rain. We aim to create lasting and meaningful pieces.

      Regarding our return policy, you are correct that made-to-order items like the 3D photo pendant are non-returnable and final sale due to their personalized nature.

      Additionally, we recommend not wearing our items in the rain to avoid potential damage. If you live in an area where it can rain unexpectedly, we suggest keeping the leather pouch bag provided with your order on hand. This way, you can safely store the pendant and protect it from moisture.

      However, I want to assure you that we are still here to help. I will reach out to you via email shortly to discuss how we can assist you further. We always want to do everything we can to make things right for valued customers like yourself!

      Kind regards,

      Their return policy is terrible. I initiated a return within the stated time due to the bracelet being too small and they took over a week to get back to me. At that point, The window of return had closed and they told me I would not be refunded. Very unhappy.

      SHOP ELSEWHERE. I purchased a necklace for my son on June 8 for his birthday on the 29th. It shipped on the 10th and took it about a week to arrive. I gave it to him on the 29th and the links are very poor quality-they dont stay flat, they constantly can twist hes just wearing it walking around. Thats not how it should be. I emailed today(7/1) inquiring about a replacement/refund and I was told that I was already out of the refund window-14 days upon receipt, although they cant guarantee exactly when I received it now can they lol? Good luck to current customers.

      We regret to hear that the necklace links are not performing as expected. Our quality control team will investigate this matter to ensure it does not happen again. Regarding our refund policy, we understand your frustration. While our policy allows refunds within 14 days of receipt, we want to ensure our customers are satisfied with their purchases.

      To resolve this issue, I have reached out to you directly via email. Please check your inbox for a message from me to discuss the next steps and ensure we make this right for you. I appreciate your patience and the opportunity to address your concerns.

      Purchased a chain on March 28. Delivered 4/6. Broke two weeks later. Local jeweler tried to fix it but says its poor quality and not fixable. Filed warranty claim. Item arrived back at GLD on 5/28. It is now 6/25- STILL no update on my new item. I have chatted with the customer service 3 times. They only tell me they have thousands of returns (sign of a bigger problem) and I just have to wait. Today I was told they will contact the returns ***** which shockingly- they havent even done yet. I requested a refund and was told I ordered too long ago. Seriously???? If this was an urgent matter- maybe you should process these things faster? A month should be plenty of time. This warranty is a scam.

      Terrible customer service. I placed an order the beginning of March. 1 months later my order was shipped to a totally different place. I reached out to support and did not get an answer as to why this happened. A new order was shipped in April and order was set to arrive a week ago. Nothing has arrived yet and ***** tracking does not show new date. Reached out to support again and no answers given. Only automated "template" emails sent to me.

      Hello,

      **** you for reaching out and sharing your experience with us. We're so sorry for the issues you've encountered with your recent order and for any frustration this has caused.

      It is disheartening to hear that your order was initially shipped to the wrong location and that the replacement order has not yet arrived. I understand how frustrating this must be.

      It appears that there have been delays and complications with the carrier which have unfortunately led to your package being delayed and lost in transit. We are deeply sorry for this inconvenience and for the automated responses you received, which did not address your concerns adequately.

      Please rest assured that we take this matter very seriously. We will follow up on your case to ensure it is resolved as soon as possible.

      Scam alert. they state to have a lifetime warranty... more like 14 day warranty. The chain we purchased broke within 6 months. They have charged me 30$ to return and asking 30$ to send new one. basically I paid 68$ for chain. Should have never as for a return and purchase new. Would have been the same cost.

      I ordered bracelets for a gift and paid for expedited shipping. The bracelets were suppose to arrive in 2 day but took a week instead. I wasnt able to gift the bracelets due to its late arrival so I returned them. Its been almost 3 weeks and I still havent gotten my refund. The return label shows it was successfully sent back. When I reached customer support they say theyd reach out to the returns department. They owe me over $200. Ill never buy from this company again
