RETURNS

Balaam Design LLC, guarantees your satisfaction. In the unlikely event you are not happy with your order, you may return it for exchange or your money back. Please email balaam@balaamdesign.com for a return authorization number. Items must be unused in original condition with tags attached. All returns or exchanges must be made within 14 days for full return and be accompanied by a copy of the original invoice. Shipping charges are not refundable. A $15.00 USD service charge will apply to any returned check or COD.

Although we check all merchandise for defects and damage prior to shipment, it is buyer's responsibility to check the product upon arrival to make sure it is free of any defects. Damaged goods due to buyer's negligence will not be accepted for refund or exchange. Any return or exchange that does not meet the above criteria will be sent back to the customer, as we do not sell used merchandise. Sales and special orders cannot be returned and are final sale.

Prices are subject to change without notice. Prices may fluctuate slightly according to availability and current market prices of individual stones and silver. The size of the individual piece of jewelry may also affect the price.

 

SHIPPING

  • Typical Lead Times: We ship from Colorado , so in most cases your domestic shipment will be delivered within 3-5 business days if we have in stock your full order, if we do not have stock we will send you first what we have of your order, and we will do our best to have the rest of your order in the following two weeks, in any case, we will notify to you when your order will be completed.  If you are in a hurry to get your goods, please email or call us and we will do our best to accommodate you.

  • International Shipping: We do ship internationally, but there are a few things you should know. You will NOT be able to track your package past the United States border. Shipping methods that provide door-to-door tracking are INCREDIBLY expensive. Once the package leaves the United States, there can be as long as 2-3 weeks lag time until your package is delivered.

Packages will be marked Merchandise/Jewelry. We will not state that a package is a gift in order to help you avoid these fees.
