Welcome to The Online Jewellery Company, where we offer jewellery discoveries from every corner of the globe.
We want your experience to be a discovery too, so to get the best out of our website, please read our Terms and Conditions ("Terms"), as your use of our website shows your acceptance of our Terms. When you place an order, you agree to be bound by our Terms. We may make changes to our website regularly and may update the Terms at any time. Any changes to these Terms will be effective on the date they are posted on our website and by continuing to use our Website you accept the updated Terms. It is your responsibility to check the current Terms regularly to be sure you're up to date.
Our website is a showcase of items both from our warehouse as well as our suppliers. When you place an order with us on www.ojco.com.au, we are here to make sure you receive your order in time, and as promised.
1. YOUR ORDER
When you place your order with us at www.ojco.com.au, you will pay the total order price as advertised on our site at the time of your order. This may include shipping and insurance charges based on the shipping options that you select, and we’ll show you these separately on your invoice. All amounts are stated in Australian dollars and all prices include Australian GST (where applicable).
We want you to get your order as quickly as possible, so we’ll process your order the following business day to make sure you’ll be wearing your jewellery sooner! It will then be shipped to you according to the method of delivery you have selected.
Once your order is on the way, we’ll send you an email notification with a tracking number and you can watch its progress every step of the way.
If something goes wrong and we can’t deliver your order, or if there is a delay, we will contact you the following business day to let you know why. If something goes really wrong and we can’t fulfil your order within our timeframes, we will refund you the same way you paid, or offer you a credit, for the full value of the item including any shipping costs paid.
We will use our best effort to make sure you will receive what you order, however our products are made available for purchase on a ‘first in first out’ basis and are only available whilst stocks last.
2. PAYMENT
Once your payment has been processed through our secure PayPal payment gateway, your order will be considered final and the processing can get underway. PayPal accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express. If your payment is not authorised for any reasons, we may cancel your order.
We can cancel any order that appears suspect or fraudulent and all such transactions will be reported to the relevant authorities for further investigation.
