Return Policy and Guidelines

Alex Gulko Custom Jewelry prides itself on offering the highest quality merchandise and services. We want our customers to be completely satisfied. If, within 7 days of receipt of your purchase you are not completely satisfied, you may return the jewelry for a full refund, exchange, or store credit. Refunds are made only to the original purchaser and in the exact method of original payment. Jewelry items must be return in the original packaging. Items returned without the original packaging and/or with missing or damaged packaging materials will be subject to a restocking fee not to exceed $40.00. Please note these exceptions to our return policy: custom jewelry and jewelry that we engrave, resize, or custom alter in any way - is not returnable. If we deem that the jewelry has been worn, we reserve the right to refuse the jewelry item for a return. To return or exchange an online purchase, carefully follow these simple procedures:
  1. Within 7 days of receiving your jewelry, send an email to: alexgulko@sbcglobal.net. In the email subject line, write “Return Authorization” (without the quote marks). In the email body, please state the reason for your return and include your contact information. You will receive a Return Authorization Number from Alex Gulko Custom Jewelry.
  2. The jewelry must be returned using US Postal Service Registered Mail. As there is no way for Alex Gulko Custom Jewelry to guarantee that we will receive your returned item, please ship the jewelry fully insured by USPS and request a return receipt for confirmation that your shipment has been delivered to our shipping address.
  3. Pack the item, along with all original packing materials (bag, box, any appraisal certificates, etc.) along with the original receipt in an appropriately sized box. Be sure to keep a copy of the receipt and it is a good idea to take a photo of the jewelry. Tape the box opening and all seams with 2-inch-wide tape. The USPS recommends using clear or brown packaging tape, reinforced packing tape, or paper tape. Do not use cord, string, twine, cellophane, or masking tape. Place a strip of clear packaging tape over your label to prevent the address from smearing. Please see this USPS webpage for shipping suggestions and regulations.
  4. Do not write any words on the exterior of the box that pertain to jewelry!
  5. Shipping address: Alex Gulko Custom Jewelry, 2651 Plymouth Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48105.
  6. Once your jewelry is received and inspected, we will confirm by email whether your refund is approved or denied, and why. If you are approved, your full refund will be processed according to your original payment method.
