Below are 4 simple methods to ensure a safe experience when buying diamond jewelry online:
1) Know the exact details of the item you are purchasing. Factors such as Total Carat Weight, Diamond Color and Clarity, the number of diamonds included in the item, the quality of gold or metal, etc. should all be clearly identified. If you are missing just one of these pieces of information, you may not end up with the item you believe you are purchasing.
2) Always check the return policy. Even if you have all the specifications of the item and are quite confident it is exactly what you want, you should always have the option to return it.
3) Does the company offer any type of warranty? What happens if a diamond falls out 2 days after you receive the jewelry? Make sure the company offers some sort of protection plan or warranty to cover manufacturer's defects.
4) Is the site secure? Make sure the site is secure and has a privacy policy in tact. They should state clearly that they do not share or sell your personal information with any outside sources.
