Shipping time and out of stock items
I strive to pack and ship your order within 3 business days. This isn´t always possible, because it is a one-woman-business. A properly wrapped order with fun freebies is important to me.
Expected delivery time is:
Within the Netherlands.
5 business days
To Belgium, Germany and France.
5 – 7 business days
Everywhere else
5 – 10 business days
Keep in mind it can take a little longer when there is a sale, because of the big amount of orders. When placing an order, you agree to this.
You will receive an email from myparcel with a tracking code when your order is on the way!
In the unlikely event that a product turns out to be out of stock, you will be notified asap. The money will then be refunded as soon as possible. This sometimes happens when there are big sales where many people order at the same time.
When a product is out of stock and is put on back order, the consumer will receive a message in the order confirmation by e-mail. The delivery time is also visible on the website when purchasing. Until the moment of completing the order, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement free of charge. The consumer can cancel the order by sending an email to TheGemGirl.com

Returns

ALWAYS fill in the return form and put a note in the box with the order number. If the customer doesn´t do these two things the return cannot be processed and may also be refused.

Gemstones, minerals and fossils, they are all natural products. One more fragil than the other. These beautiful pieces are often extracted from mines, caves or deep inside the earth. Some are millions of years old! So it is not uncommon for there to be an unevenness in your piece such as an inclusion, hole or scratch. This is simply unavoidable and therefore cannot be accepted as a complaint. With fragil pieces such as sulphur, celestine and other quartz variants, a crystal can come loose during shipment, unfortunately this is also unavoidable despite solid packaging. Of course things change when your order comes in complete broken and damaged.
