The Thacker Jewelry Guarantee In General and Statement of Business Principles
Thacker Jewelry is a Christian, family oriented business. We believe in producing an honest product at a fair price and treating others the way we wish to be treated. On behalf of the 14 families supported by this business, we thank each of our customers and hope to make your decision in the choice of a fine jewelry item a pleasant one.
We guarantee everything we make or sell for 1 year from the date of delivery unless otherwise notated here or in writing to the customer. This means we guarantee such things as stones from falling out or becoming loose and the parts that we make will not break. Warranties may be renewed on an annual basis with proper inspection of the item. This procedure is called a Back To Factory Inspection and information is available in the store.
Watch repairs are guaranteed for 12 months. We are unable to warranty watch work if the watch is unable to seal out water and dust, a problem for watches.
We are always happy to clean and check any item purchased from our store free of charge. If any adjustments are necessary, the item must be checked in and processed for repairs which require approximately 10 days. Appropriate charges may apply.
Items Not Guaranteed
1. Glued items.
2. Enameling.
3. Gold or Rhodium Plating.
4. Loss of any stone over ½ carat, colored gem or diamond, or in the case of obvious misuse or damage to the item.
5. Any ring sizing if the finger is not present. Sizing questions on new purchases or repairs must be considered within 30 days of delivery date.
**We do not assume responsibility for the loss of a single diamond or colored gemstone above .50ctw (one-half carat). Customers should have stones appraised and insured and/or covered by a jewelry rider with their homeowners insurance. We gladly supply appraisals for items we sell. Appraisals for items purchased elsewhere begin at $45 and will include a photograph of the item and required description . Insurance information and Jewelers Mutual application forms are available in the store or on request.
