WARRANTY, SHIPPING AND EXCHANGES

LIFETIME WARRANTY

Our promise to you.

TMC Fine Jewellers utilises only the highest quality gemstones, paired with impeccable craftsmanship to create special pieces that are bespoke, ethical, and affordable, that will truly last a lifetime. To reflect our confidence, all engagement and ceremonial pieces come with a limited Lifetime Warranty.

Our Lifetime Warranty covers our craftsmanship of the ring under normal wear, and the optical properties of our Cultured Diamonds (IGI or GIA Certified). The Moissanite Company Moissanite Lifetime Warranty covers the optical properties of your moissanite stone.

Craftsmanship issues, such as unstable settings or flawed metal finishes. While unlikely, if any issues were to arise with the craftsmanship of your piece, this would happen in the first few weeks of wear. Any faults due to craftsmanship will be repaired, or the piece replaced by TMC Fine Jewellers at no charge. 

The unlikely event of optical property changes (clarity, colour, fire, lustre and brilliance) of your The Moissanite Company Moissanite Gemstones.

The unlikely event of optical property changes (clarity, colour, fire, lustre and brilliance) of your Cultured Diamond (IGI, GIA Certified).

If you believe your ring falls under these policies, please contact us to arrange an assessment of your ring. Upon inspection, any rings found to show signs of improper care, such as misshapen settings, will be repaired at a cost incurred by you.

Please note that while all approved warranty repairs are completed at no charge, shipping and transit arrangements to and from our workshop are not included within the warranty.

Signs of reasonable wear and tear, such as scratches in the metal

Damage from inappropriate wear or improper care, such as metal corrosion, misshapen settings, cracked or chipped stones, discolouration, etc. 

Lost stones as a result of damage or wear and tear that was not immediately remedied once noticed.

Loss or theft of your ring.

Taking your TMC Fine Jewellers ring to a jeweller other than TMC Fine Jewellers for repairs, maintenance or alterations (unless otherwise discussed and permitted by our team in exceptional circumstances) will void your Lifetime Warranty.

The warranty is non-transferable and only applies to the original purchaser.

You must retain your original receipt.

We recommend an annual inspection and maintenance check by TMC Fine Jewellers to ensure your stone and setting remain secure and in optimal condition. Failure to provide proof of annual servicing, within 12 months of receiving your piece, will render the warranty null and void.

To initiate a warranty claim, please contact TMC Fine Jewellers with:

  • Your gemstone’s Certification Number
  • Clear photographic evidence of the issue

All claims are subject to review and approval by our in-house gemologists. Replacement decisions are made at the sole discretion of TMC Fine Jewellers.

Return shipping to TMC Fine Jewellers is the responsibility of the customer. Return shipping for repaired or replaced stones will be determined at the discretion of TMC Fine Jewellers and may either be covered or charged.

MOISSANITE WARRANTY

The Moissanite Company Signature Moissanite.

The Moissanite Company Signature Moissanite is covered under the TMC Fine Jewellers Limited Lifetime Warranty. This warranty reflects our ongoing commitment to exceptional quality and protects the optical properties of your Signature Moissanite gemstone, including fire, brilliance, lustre and clarity under normal wear and use.

All Signature Moissanite gemstones are guaranteed under the following specifications:

  • Colourless Stones: Graded D, the highest available colour grade
  • Coloured Stones: Grown and synthesised in their original colour without plating or surface treatments
  • Clarity: Graded VVS1 (Very, Very Slightly Included 1), reflecting advanced synthesisation and exceptional purity
  • Cut: All stones are cut to Excellent standards to maximise brilliance and fire

If your gemstone has been set, and your setting has been crafted by TMC Fine Jewellers, any loose stones or issues related to craftsmanship are covered under this Limited Lifetime Warranty, excluding any wear and tear.

This warranty does not cover:

  • Damage resulting from misuse, impact, or improper handling, including cracks, chips or breaks
  • Loss or theft of the gemstone
  • Any post-growth treatments, plating or tampering, as these alter the stone’s integrity and void the warranty
  • Colour loss or damage to coloured moissanite caused by:
  • Exposure to extreme heat such as open flames or high-temperature repairs
  • Ultrasonic or steam cleaning
  • Prolonged exposure to direct UV light

The only time colour loss in coloured moissanite is covered is when it occurs during servicing or assessment performed by TMC Fine Jewellers or authorised Signature Moissanite gemologists.

Each Signature Moissanite stone includes a digital certificate of authenticity and grading, providing accessible proof of quality.

If your certificate is branded Eternal Brilliance Moissanite, it remains fully covered under this warranty. Eternal Brilliance was our previous brand name, and all stones and warranties under that name continue to be honoured as part of the Signature Moissanite collection.

This warranty reflects our confidence in the craftsmanship and durability of The Moissanite Company Signature Moissanite. For assistance or further information, please contact TMC Fine Jewellers directly.

SHIPPING

Complimentary express insured shipping.

Expect Domestic Orders to be delivered within 1-3 business. Once your piece is crafted, you will be notified when your order has been shipped, and provided with details on how to track your delivery.

Expect International Orders to be delivered within 5-7 business days. Once your piece is crafted, you will be notified when your order has been shipped, and provided with details on how to track your delivery.

Duties & Import Taxes

Import duties and taxes may apply for international shipments outside of Australia.

Once your order arrives at your destination, you as the customer will be liable for all custom fees and taxes that may be incurred to release the parcel. TMC Fine Jewellers will not issue a refund if you refuse to pay the relevant duties/fees for your order that are respective to your order value and delivery location. If your order is returned to us as a result of unpaid duties/fees, costs involved in redelivery of the item must be paid by you as the customer.

Duties and taxes (D&T) may be applicable to international customers and are determined by the customs authorities in the destination country. These charges are outside of our control and vary depending on the destination country’s import regulations. Customers are responsible for any duties, taxes, or customs fees incurred upon delivery. We recommend checking with your local customs office for an estimate of potential charges prior to placing your order. Please note that refusal to pay duties and taxes may result in the package being returned, delayed, or abandoned, and we are unable to take responsibility for any associated costs.

If you’re sending your piece back to us from outside Australia for servicing, please ensure it is clearly declared as ‘Returned Goods – Warranty Service’ on all customs documentation. This is important, as the item is not a new sale and, in most cases, should not be subject to import duties or taxes.

However, each country’s customs process is different. If any import fees, duties, or handling charges are applied upon re-entry into Australia, these remain the responsibility of the sender. Incorrect or incomplete declarations may increase the likelihood of such fees or cause delays in receiving your item. We strongly recommend confirming the appropriate procedure with your local postal or courier service before shipping, to help avoid any unnecessary issues.

RETURNS & EXCHANGES

We journey with you.

We offer a 30 day exchange for all Ready To Wear Rings. This is only valid if the ring is unworn and in the new condition, as it was at the time of purchase. The terms of the Australian Consumer Law guarantee will still apply where relevant.

We ask that you please consider all details of your ring carefully before making your purchase. Our team is available to answer any questions and clarify any queries you may have prior to ordering, to ensure your purchase is the perfect choice.

We do not accept ‘change of mind’ refunds, credits or exchanges on any pieces from our Signature Range (including but not limited to engagement rings, ceremonial rings, fine jewellery, loose stones and sale items), or Complete Custom Designs.

TMC Fine Jewellers reserves the right to refuse a refund or exchange to any customer if:

  • There is evidence of use and wear of the item.
  • It is a bespoke, custom made item.
  • It is a ring that has been resized to your specifications.
  • An incorrect finger size is supplied by the customer.
  • The reason is not related to quality issues.
  • The quality issue can be easily rectified by our jewellers.
  • There is evidence to suggest the customer has misused or intentionally tampered with the product.

Exceptions / non-returnable items:Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.

If you choose to cancel your order after purchase but before receiving your CAD, a cancellation fee of $1,000 AUD will apply. Once the CAD has been approved, order cancellations are strictly not permitted.

COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN

Your computer aided design.

To provide you with the utmost assurance with your bespoke or custom ring, we create and provide you a CAD (computer aided design), which is received typically within 1 week from purchase.

If you do not approve your design within 3 days, we proceed with crafting as per the original CAD design. Amendments to your order can be made before the CAD approval. Once you have approved your CAD or exceeded the 3 day approval period, no further changes to your order can be made.

 

 

 

Where a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is requested in relation to a non-TMC engagement ring, a fee of $50.00 AUD shall apply.

IN-HOUSE PAYMENT PLAN

Our interest-free In-House Payment Plan, making your dream piece, even more attainable.

To commence the crafting of your piece and prior to receiving your Computer-Aided Design (CAD), a 50% deposit is required. The remaining balance is due upon completion of your piece. Once final payment has been received, a member of our team will contact you within 1–3 business days to arrange collection or delivery.

CRAFTING TIMEFRAMES

Always, crafted in Australia.

Please note, the crafting timeframe selected at the time of your purchase is unchangeable. Crafting timeframes are not inclusive of closure periods, public holidays, or the time required for shipping or collection from our showrooms. Ensure the selected timeframe aligns with your desired completion date.

In the unlikely event of a delay in the crafting process, you will be notified and your crafting timeframe updated. Our turnaround times do not account for any delays related to CAD approvals or shipping timeframes.

RESIZING

Your perfect ring size.

We want to ensure your ring fits perfectly. If your ring is not the correct size, we offer one complimentary resize within the first 6 months of receiving your ring, up or down to a maximum of 2 sizes.

If your ring requires resizing over 2 sizes, a resizing fee will incur a fee, starting at $100 AUD.

Specific Resizing Fees

  • Resize Up (0-2 sizes) – $150 AUD
  • Resize Up (2–4 sizes) – $250 AUD
  • Resize Down (0-2 sizes) – $100 AUD
  • Resize Down (2–4 sizes) – $150 AUD

Due to their detailed and intricate bands, certain designs can only be resized within a specified range to ensures it maintains its structural integrity and lasts a lifetime of love. 

  • Pave Band Rings: Can be resized up a total of 4 sizes and down a total of 2.5 sizes.
  • Marquise & Round Shared Prong Bands: Can be resized a total of 2.5 sizes up only.

After a thorough inspection of your piece, TMC Fine Jewellers may deny a resize request if it may alter the structural integrity of the ring, and offer alternative solutions.

Men’s Zirconium rings are not included in the complimentary resize service.

Customers are responsible for covering the shipping costs to TMC Fine Jewellers for complimentary resizing. Upon completion of the resizing service, the customer will also be responsible for the return shipping fees. These return shipping costs will be invoiced upon the item’s arrival at our workshop, at a flat rate of $20 AUD for domestic shipments within Australia, and $50 AUD for international shipments.

Alternatively, if you are local to our Brisbane or Sydney showrooms, you may book a complimentary ring drop-off appointment to avoid shipping fees.

To initiate a resize or for further information on the resizing process, please contact us at info@tmcfinejewellers.com for assistance.

RING SERVICING

Our complimentary lifetime servicing.

Our complimentary lifetime servicing is inclusive of a thorough inspection, professional clean, polish as well as prong tightening, if required. This is applicable to all of all of our engagement rings, ceremonial rings and fine jewellery pieces.

We offer complimentary engraving for all of our engagement and ceremonial rings. This complimentary service is only offered when your ring is in the design phase, prior to initial payment being made. If you wish to have your ring engraved by us at a later date, there will be a $60 fee involved. If you wish to change your engraving after it has been completed, a $60 fee will also be payable to cover the costs associated with removing and re-engraving.

Please note, Zirconium rings cannot be engraved once your final CAD design has been approved and the crafting process has begun. We are also unable to offer engraving on zirconium rings at a later date due to the composition of the metal.

White gold jewellery is rhodium plated to enhance its bright white appearance. Over time, this plating naturally wears off, revealing the slightly warmer, natural tone of the gold beneath. To maintain its original luster and brilliance, periodic reapplication of rhodium plating is necessary.

We offer professional rhodium plating services for $100 AUD. Please note that rhodium plating is a maintenance service and is not a permanent treatment. The longevity of the plating depends on factors such as wear frequency, exposure to chemicals, and individual body chemistry. We recommend re-plating as needed to keep your white gold jewellery looking its best.

To maintain the validity of your warranty, your piece must be inspected and serviced by TMC Fine Jewellers at least once every 12 months from the date of receiving the ring. Failure to provide proof of annual servicing will render the warranty null and void.

The customer is to cover all shipping costs for both complimentary servicing and repairs.

Customers are responsible for covering the shipping costs to TMC Fine Jewellers for complimentary resizing.
