ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS
| 1.Question: |
Where do you get your pearls?
|
| Answer: |
At least twice a year we make major buying trips to Hong Kong, one of
the premier pearl-buying centers of the world, to select pearls for our
Designers. We spend days scouring floor after floor, and booth after booth of
the huge Hong Kong Convention Center, looking for the very best the world is
offering in South Sea pearls, Tahitian pearls, Akoyas and Chinese Freshwater
pearls.
We will visit other suppliers throughout the year to fill special
requests and enhance new design lines. There are new pearl colors, shapes and
special finds released all the time, and the only way to discover these is to
be there, at the source.
|

| 2.Question: |
Are your pearls real?
|
| Answer: |
Cultured pearls are real pearls. Some people make
the distinction between pearls produced by mollusks without human intervention
(the result of a grain of sand landing within the oyster, for example) and
pearls resulting from a stimulus to encourage the mollusk to produce a pearl.
Natural pearls are extremely rare. The advent of perliculture - the science of
growing pearls - made pearls accessible for us all.
|
return to top
| 3.Question: |
Are cultured pearls quality pearls?
|
| Answer: |
Not only are cultured pearls quality pearls, but many of the finest
pearls in the world are the result of culturing. Consider South Sea pearls,
Tahitian pearls and Akoya pearls. These pearls are all cultured pearls. This
process helps ensure uniform quality and improve harvests.
The past several years, Chinese Freshwater pearls have also entered
the market of quality cultured pearls. You see that in the designs offered by
BJpearl. The quality of these pearls has improved as has the availability of
designer sizes, colors and shapes.
|

| 4.Question: |
What about pearl colors? Are they natural?
|
| Answer: |
Some pearl colors are natural; some pearl colors
are achieved through artificial means. At BJpearl, we will always tell you -
in the Product Description. The most beautiful colors are natural. Each pearl
has a body color plus overtones that cannot be achieved artificially (though
many have tried!).
|

| 5.Question: |
Do your Akoya pearls come from Japan or China?
|
| Answer: |
Most of the World's Akoya pearls are now cultured in China - and so
are ours. It is a fact that even those Akoya cultured pearls sold from Japan
are made up of pearls cultured from both Japan and China. There is no
way to tell the difference.
Our partner in pearls owns the farm from which our Akoya cultured
pearls are acquired. He has spent more than twenty years improving the quality
of their pearls until now their pearls rival that of any Akoyas we've seen from
Japan. There is no blinking (hold up to a bright light and twirl
slowly; the nucleus, or seed bead, is not visible) meaning the nacre is very
thick and of high quality. These are high quality pearls!

| 6.Question: |
Where does your jewelry come from?
|
| Answer: |
Beth (our founder) has a factory in JiangSu Province, China. Here,
her designs are made by hand using goldsmithing techniques she herself uses on
her one-of-a-kind designs. The term "factory" brings to mind highly mechanized
operations, but this is a small operation -- just one large room of
highly-skilled jewelers.
Pearl strands and other unique designs are being created by
BJpearl's team of Designers. One of her favorites, sumrain, spins off rings
and pendants using fine South Sea cultured pearls and Tahitian cultured pearls.
We keep our designs unique and fresh. You won't find our pieces
anywhere else.

| 7.Question: |
Do you offer custom jewelry?
|
| Answer: |
Yes. If a piece of pearl jewelry in our pearl boutique comes close to
meeting your needs, but you would like to modify the length or change the style
of pearl, let us know. We may be able to help.
Contact one of our
Designers. Custom jewelry
cannot be returned.
|
return to top
| 8.Question: |
Can you find pearls for me?
|
| Answer: |
Yes. If there is a special pearl purchase you would like us to make
for you, we will search our pearl dealers to find what you need. We can try to
match a missing pearl earring, finish a pearl jewelry set or find unique
pearls not normally carried in our boutique.
For pearl searches we require a nonrefundable down-payment of 50% of
the estimated total. We are putting our reputation with our dealers on the
line.
These are considered custom purchases and are not refundable.
|

| 9.Question: |
What is your guarantee?
|
| Answer: |
We want you to be 100% satisfied with your BJpearl purchase. We
understand the ideal way to purchase pearl jewelry is to hold, fondle and wear
the jewelry. This is difficult to do over the Internet, even with quality
photography. So we offer you our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. This is the only
way you can be completely comfortable with your purchase.
We give you a full 30 (thirty) days from the date of shipment to try
out your pearls. Inspect your purchase as soon as you receive it. We inspect
every item for flaws prior to shipping. Any damages you find need to be
reported to us immediately because damaged jewelry cannot be returned to
us. Damages incurred during shipping are the only exception. Retain all
packaging and receipts.
If you decide that this jewelry is not for you, simply return it, no questions
asked. Jewelry must be in its original (unworn) condition with original
packaging and materials.

will ship the next business day. Ground shipments may take 1 to 2 business days

| 9.Question: |
What about damaged shipments?
|
| Answer: |
First, we apologize. Sometimes FedEx trucks hit Pizza trucks and
boxes get crushed. We try hard to pack your jewelry so it doesn't suffer when
this happens.
Always inspect your jewelry as soon as it arrives. We inspected your
jewelry before we packed it. It was flawless. So, if you find defects, these
happened during shipping. If you find anything, please email our Customer
Service immediately or telephone
us at +86-013910120467. We will need 3 pieces of information:
1. Your Order Number (you can find it in your email we sent to
you)
2. FedEx or USPS or EMS or DHL or TNT or AIR Tracking Number (from the
Shipping Box)
3. What was damaged?
Keep the shipping box, the packaging, everything! We will tell you
what to do next about this return. We will need to get the packaging and the
items back to BJpearl headquarters, but wait until you communicate with
Customer Service.
Once the items are back at BJpearl headquarters, our Quality
Assurance team and Fraud Team will both review the damage. The Fraud team gets
involved just to make sure items haven't been damaged as a result of wear and
tear (they are really good!). Full refunds are given, including any expenses
incurred for returns, for all damaged goods. We will contact you when credit
has been given.
|
return to top
| 10.Question: |
Can I return merchandise?
|
| Answer: |
BJpearl provides a 30 (thirty) day return policy.
Jewelry must be returned in its original (unworn) condition with all packaging.
It will be inspected upon receipt to ensure it has not been worn. If it has
been worn, it cannot be sold and will not be accepted for return.
All returns over USD $500.00 must have prior authorization. Call
Customer Service at +86-013910120467 or email us at
Returns to obtain authorization prior
to returning any item over USD$500.00 to insure proper credit. Return item in
its original packaging. Make sure to insure the package for its full price. You
are responsible for it until we receive it.

you when your return is credited to your account. We are committed you, our

|
| Answer: |
Not at this time. We plan on adding this option in the
near future.
|
return to top
| 12.Question: |
Are delivery dates guaranteed?
|
| Answer: |
Ground shipment delivery dates are not guaranteed. 2nd day air
shipments are guaranteed to arrive within 2 business days of the ship date.
Next day air shipments are guaranteed to arrive by the next business day
afternoon. If an air shipment is late, we will issue a credit for the shipping
cost.
* NOTE - We cannot guarantee delivery dates for
circumstances beyond our control (e.g., unsuccessful delivery
attempts, carrier weather delays, incorrect addresses, etc.) NO refunds
will be issued under these circumstances.
|
return to top
| 13.Question: |
What will happen if I give an incorrect shipping address?
|
| Answer: |
PLEASE be certain of your address before ordering! We pass along the FedEx fee
of $10 for the correction, which will appear on your credit card statement as a
separate charge. Unfortunately, your jewelry will probably not get to its
destination in time for the important occasion if you supply an incorrect
address when ordering. Make sure that you include apartment or suite numbers if
applicable - FedEx will charge the $10 fee for this as well.
If a package is returned to us because of an address problem, we will reship the
package to you or a corrected recipient address. You will be charged for the
additional shipping fees.

PRIVACY
| 1.Question: |
Will you share my personal information with other companies?
|
| Answer: |
Protecting your privacy is important to us. We will never, ever sell or give
your personal information to anyone. We don't like it when it happens to us; we
won't do it you.

Our site uses the industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol that
encrypts personal information being transferred over the Internet during the
ordering process. This information is kept in a protected directory accessible
