/ TERMS & CONDITIONS
These terms and conditions apply to the Lavin NY’s website located at www.lavinnewyork.com, and all associated Websites linked to www.lavinnewyork.com by Lavin NY, its subsidiaries and affiliates, including Lavin NY’s sites around the world (collectively the ‘Site’). Please read these terms and conditions (‘Terms and Conditions’) carefully. BY USING THE SITE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
These Terms and Conditions govern your use of, and any purchase from, the Lavin NY, and constitute an agreement between you and Lavin NY. Lavin NY reserves the right to change or modify any of these Terms and Conditions or any policy or guideline of the Site at any time, and in its sole discretion. Any change or modification will be effective immediately upon posting of the revisions on the Site. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of its changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. Therefore, you should frequently review these Terms and Conditions and any other applicable policies from time-to-time to understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Site. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop using the Site.
(A) Product Availability and Pricing
If you’re interested in a piece of jewellery that is currently on back order, call us and we can tell you when the item will be back in stock. Sometimes with the volume of orders we receive, an item may go out of stock before we are able to post a notification on the Site. If this happens, we will contact you directly to discuss possible options.
Data, including prices, may be inaccurately displayed on our Site due to system or typographical errors. While we make every attempt to avoid these errors, they may occur. We reserve the right to correct any and all errors when they do occur, and we do not honour inaccurate or erroneous prices. If a product’s listed price is lower than its actual price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping the product or cancel the order and notify you of such cancellation. If the order has been shipped, you agree to either return the product or pay the difference between the actual and charged prices. Our prices are also subject to change without notice. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our consultants at service@lavinnewyork.com. We do not negotiate prices on our products and all our prices are final.
(B) Refund
Please take note that refund from Lavin NY based on the 14-day return policy is either in credit or cash form; with 5% and 10% restocking fees applied respectively.
(C) Diamond Certificates
When you order a loose diamond, we ship it to you with the accompanying diamond grading report (also called a GIA report/ dossier). These grading reports are detailed documents created by diamond grading experts at one of two highly respected diamond laboratories – making it very expensive to replace a diamond grading report. Because of this, we require each diamond grading report to be included with each returned diamond. We will reject the refund request if you do not include the diamond grading report with your return.
(D) Comparison Purchasing
To keep our prices low, we do not allow comparison purchasing. Comparison purchasing is the act of buying several items with the intent of keeping the one you like best and returning the remainder. To confirm the quality of a jewellery item, please contact us at service@lavinnewyork.com and we would be happy to help you make your choice.
(E) Information on our Site
At Lavin NY, we make every attempt to ensure that our online catalogue is as accurate and complete as possible. In order to give you the opportunity to view our products in great detail, some products may appear larger or smaller than their actual size in our photographs; and since every computer monitor is set differently, colour and size may vary slightly.
In compliance with industry standards and FTC regulations, Lavin NY states that carat total weight in all purchases may vary 0.05 carats from stated weight.
On the Site, we provide the measurement of our products based on our manufacturing specifications. Slight tolerances may be accounted for based on finishing during the manufacturing.
For diamond jewellery set with multiple diamonds, we provide the minimum total carat weight for the piece. Colour and clarity grades are expressed as either a minimum or an average depending on the number of diamonds. If stated as a minimum, all diamonds within the piece are at or above the stated quality. If expressed as an average, collectively the quality is equal to or exceeds the grade stated.
(F) Policy on Ethical Sourcing
At Lavin NY, we only purchase diamonds through the largest and most respected suppliers who, like us, proudly adhere to and enforce the standards established by the Kimberley Process, an international system that policies the trade of diamonds to ensure they are from sources free of conflict.
