Regarding "Defects" | Product Variance :
It is common to have some beads or pearls in a strand not suitable for your use for various reasons. We do NOT issue credit for those beads or pearls because the price always reflects the general quality of the entire strand, not every single piece. Therefore, if the overall quality of the entire strand doesn't meet your requirements, you can return the whole strand in its original condition for a refund (unless clearance/closeout). We do not issue refunds for returns of partial strands or used strands. TIP : If you need every single bead or pearl to be perfect for your use, your local retail bead shops can supply what you need because retail bead shops usually allow you to select a few perfect pieces from a lot of loose ones.

Please note that the following product variances are within normal manufacturing parameters. You may return any items according to our Returns Policy -- HOWEVER, these conditions will NOT be considered defects.
- As each sterling silver item with an SE- prefix is hand-cast and hand-made, slight variations will naturally occur.
- When given, all sizing information is average size per item, listed as overall outer dimensions.
- When given, all bead counts per strand are average count per strand.
- When given, hole sizes are approximate and can vary from item to item and bead to bead.
- Metal items will vary in weight and thickness by approximately 10%.
- Cast metal items will vary in weight and thickness by approximately 10%.
- Expect up to 5% breakage in shipments of most beads.
- Colors of items will vary from every nation of origin. Color hue as well as lightness and darkness will vary within a range.
- Tarnish and patina are naturally occurring by-products resulting from metals reactions with the air. Many environmental factors contribute to the speed of these processes. Tarnish can be removed with readily available metal cleaners.

SLAB AND ROUGH MATERIAL WARRANTY NOTICE : Please note that all slabs or rough can have unforeseen weaknesses including hidden cracks and soft / weak areas. Edges and corners can also have hidden weaknesses and often produce crumbs or small fractures. There is no way to test slabs or rough without attempting to break them with applied pressure. We strongly suggest stabilizing or backing any slabs or rough that could potentially break during any lapidary work. There are no refunds in the event of breakage due to handing or lapidary work after you receive your slab or rough. We do not stabilize or alter specimens without notifying the buyer. However, it’s possible some third party specimens could be stabilized, repaired or altered without our knowledge. In some instances, stabilization or alteration processes may be very difficult to detect without damaging the specimen(s) for testing purposes. Slabs and some specimens are shown wet or damp to show polishing potential and such specimens may appear dull when received. Some specimens and slabs are seen propped up and may not sit naturally in such positions without mounting supports or stands.

REGARDING PROPS : If/when show, any stands, coins and/or other props and photo staging items are not included. Please carefully read item descriptions.

RESTOCKING and REFUNDS : Unless an order fulfillment mistake (see above) or an exchange for exact same item is made (if item damaged), a flat 20% restocking fee shall be applied for each authorized return. If your order falls below a free shipping amount after the return is subtracted (when we offer free shipping) OR your order originally shipped for free, your refund will be adjusted $4.50 or the shipping costs Silver Enchantments LLC incurred to ship your order - whichever is higher -- In addition to the 20% restocking fee. If the returned items modify your total such that your order falls into a different discount, this will also be factored in. Return shipping and insurance are to be paid by buyer via a prepaid, track-able method. Shipping and/or handling costs to and from buyer are non-refundable.

TAXES, DUTIES, VAT POLICY
Silver Enchantments LLC shall automatically charge and withhold the applicable sales tax for orders to be delivered to addresses within the state of Arizona (Currently 6.1%). For orders shipped to other states or countries, the buyer is solely responsible for any and all sales taxes or other fees, duties and/or taxes. When shipping International, sorry, we will not mark a package as 'Gift'. While we love our international customers, we will not commit customs fraud for you. Please check with your local customs office for detailed information. Customs, import duties (if any) and local taxes are assessed when the package arrives in your country. These additional fees are the responsibility of the recipient. It is our policy not to lower values of goods shipped, nor will we ever mark a package as a 'gift'.

ARIZONA TAX EXEMPTION : If you are business based in Arizona, and you wish to purchase tax-exempt, we require a copy of your sales tax license AND Arizona's Official Tax Exemption Form in order to provide a sales tax exemption.
