Placement of an order implies acceptance of the prices and descriptions of the Products available for sale.

    In some cases, notably in the event of failure to pay, an erroneous address or another problem on the Buyer’s account, we reserve the right to block the order until the problem is resolved.

    To be taken into account, any request to change an order must imperatively be made by email to the attention of our Customer Relations Department (support@g-silver.com) before the order has been shipped. We will not be able to change information relating to the shipping or invoicing of your order if it has already been shipped.

    ARTICLE 8. PRICES

    Prices are expressed in EUR, showing the amounts both exclusive and inclusive of taxes.

All transactions carried out on www.g-silver.com are secure. The customer’s bank information (e.g., credit card number or expiration date) is encoded by the SSL system and processed by our financial partner. At no point in the purchase procedure we would be able to know your credit card number, which is transmitted directly to the partner bank via a protected connection. Your data does not pass through www.g-silver.com and only our Website’s partner bank has access to this information.

    If you opt to pay by wire transfer, our company’s bank details will be indicated in the order confirmation email that you receive. We ask that you email us a copy of your wire transfer order within 10 days, at the following email address: support@g-silver.com.

    ARTICLE 10. PLATING

    Some Products are coated in fine gold or rhodium plating (hereinafter ‘Galvanised Products’). The type of galvanisation applied to the Product (gold or rhodium) is specified in the shopping basket, along with the thickness for the gold plating on the piece of jewellery and the minimum order amount.

    The colours of Galvanised Products shown in the photos on the Website are not contractual and may be subject to slight variations.

    Special lead times apply to Galvanised Products; the estimated delivery lead time is 15 working days, depending on the availability of the subcontractor applying the galvanisation.

    If you order conventional Products at the same time as Galvanised Products, you have a choice between delivery in two instalments (conventional Products and Galvanised Products) or delivery all at once after the Seller has received the Galvanised Products. For delivery in two instalments, additional shipping charges apply.

    ARTICLE 11. PRODUCT AVAILABILITY

    You will be promptly informed by email if the Product ordered is not available. In this event, you will have the choice to request either a refund of the amounts paid within 30 days of their payment date, or a credit to your account.

    In the event of partial unavailability of the Products ordered, we can offer partial delivery of the Products. In this case, you can either request a refund or credit for the Products not available, or wait for delivery of the remainder of the order when it becomes available. You will have priority for delivery of these Products.

    In case of unavailability of stock clearance products you will be refunded or issued a credit note.

    If the order includes Products that are available, the rest of the order remains firm and final.

    ARTICLE 12. DELIVERY

    The estimated lead time for order shipment is 10 days from confirmation of receipt of payment by our banking institution.

    The Products ordered will be delivered to the countries specified in Article 5 ‘orders’ of the GTCS in accordance with the estimated shipping lead time, which is added to the lead time for processing and routing to the address you indicated when you placed the order.

    Any shipping delay surpassing the estimated lead time by more than 15 days for any reason other than force majeure or attributable to the Buyer may result in annulment of the sale. We undertake to make our best effort to deliver Products ordered within the lead times specified above. However, these lead times are non-binding and provided for information only. When applicable, we will send you a delivery tracking number by email.

    If Products belonging to the same order are packaged in multiple parcels, they are shipped at the same time.

    To calculate the delivery charges for an order, we take into account the total average weight and volume, i.e. the effective weight of the Products ordered and the inherent weight of the packaging for shipping.

    The shipping charges are automatically calculated by the Website www.g-silver.com based on the destination and the value/weight of the parcel at the time the order is placed. The cost will be calculated after the country, county and postal code has been inserted in the shopping basket. If there are additional charges applied by the carrier (remote areas, mountainous areas, certain rural areas, certain cities, water points), we reserve the right to change carriers or to invoice you for the carrier’s additional charges, according to your preference. The Products ordered are delivered to the address that you have indicated on the purchase order. You are responsible for making sure this information is correct. Any parcel returned due to an erroneous or incomplete delivery address will be re-shipped at your expense.

    If the Buyer is absent on the delivery day, the deliverer will leave a non-delivery notice allowing the parcel to be claimed at a designated location within a designated period. The Buyer must call the number provided and specify a date for the new delivery. Beyond a period of 5 days of holding the parcel, the Seller declines any responsibility for possible damage to the Products as a result of inadequate storage conditions.

    If the parcel remains unclaimed after 14 days, it will automatically be returned to the Seller.

    ARTICLE 13. RETURNS, EXCHANGES AND REFUNDS

    Products that are lost or damaged or that do not match the order will be refunded or exchanged, with the exception of Products purchased in the Special offers category.

    No return request can be taken into account by phone, we invite the Buyer to contact us directly via our return request form.

    The Seller will cover the cost of returning damaged Products or Products that do not match the order.

    Also, the Seller does not accept the return of galvanised products (yellow gold, rose gold, white rhodium and black rhodium) and customised products unless the products are defective. In this specific case, the buyer’s products can be returned in accordance with the conditions below

    When the delivery is made, if the original packaging is not intact or torn or open, the Buyer must verify the condition of the Products. If they have been damaged, the Buyer must refuse the parcel and note a reservation on the delivery slip (parcel refused because it is open or damaged).

    The Buyer must indicate any anomaly relating to delivery (damage, Product missing with regard to delivery slip, damaged parcel, broken Products, etc.) in the form of handwritten reservations on the delivery slip accompanied by the buyer’s signature. 

    This verification is deemed to have been completed once the Buyer, or any person authorised by the Buyer, has signed the delivery slip. 

    The Buyer must then confirm these reservations to the carrier by registered letter within three working days of receipt of the Product(s) at the latest, and send a copy of this letter by e-mail to support@g-silver.com or by post to the following address: GEMO SARL, 4 rue André Isaia 13013, Marseilles, France. 

    Returned products must be properly packaged to prevent any damage during transport. They must be protected, preferably in their original packaging. They must be unused and in their original condition. They must be complete and accompanied by all their accessories, if any, which must be intact, undamaged and unsoiled. Products are to be returned via registered post (tracked shipping) to the following address: GEMO SARL, 4 rue André Isaia 13013, Marseilles, France. 

    The Seller authorises the return of defective products within a maximum period of 15 days after receipt of your package . If the conditions are not favourable, the Seller will be obliged to return the products to the Buyer and the shipping costs will be at the customer’s charge.

    ARTICLE 14. TOLERANCE AND COMPLIANCE

    Automation of the manufacturing processes makes it technically impossible to guarantee the exact number and weight of a set of identical Pieces (hereinafter ‘Batch’).

    Batches composed of fewer than 20 Pieces are prepared based on their number, and the estimated weight is indicated for information only and may vary from the weight indicated in the invoice. Batches composed of more than 20 Pieces are prepared based on their total weight, and the number of Pieces is indicated for information only and may vary from the number indicated in the invoice.

    We cannot guarantee the exact size, uniformity or colour of the Products. There may be slight differences from one production batch to another. Slight differences in opacity, shade and workmanship must be accepted and are not grounds for any discount or refusal of merchandise. You grant us a 5% tolerance on the expected weight or thickness of the components.

    Within this tolerance, Products will be considered non-defective and compliant with the order.

    ARTICLE 15. PRODUCT WARRANTY

    We warrant our Products against any non-conformity or hidden defect due to any flaw in design or materials, with the exclusion of any negligence or fault on the part of the Buyer. In any event, if we are liable, our warranty is limited to the amount exclusive of taxes paid by the Buyer for the purchase of the Product in question.

    Ready to wear jewellery bear a production or import hallmark registered with the Warranty office.

    The findings feature a 925/1000 sterling silver production hallmark, where possible.

    The production hallmark is the responsibility of the manufacturing artisan.

    With regard to Galvanised Products, please note that plated pieces become worn over time as a result of rubbing, regardless of the thickness or quality of the galvanisation. The resistance over time of the layer of gold or rhodium on the base metal is therefore not guaranteed.

    ARTICLE 16. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

    As the Buyer is a professional purchasing within the scope and for the purposes of their profession, there are no grounds to apply the right of withdrawal provided by the Consumer Code, except application of the exception provided by Article L221-3 of the Consumer Code.

    ARTICLE 17. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    We hold all intellectual property rights and all necessary authorisations pertaining to the Products and the associated documentation and guarantee that the Products and associated documentation are not in violation of intellectual property rights or any other rights held by a third party.

    The sale of the Products does not grant you any rights regarding the trademarks or distinguishing signs that we place on the Products and associated documentation. Moreover, we maintain ownership of all intellectual property rights, notably to the photographs, presentations, designs, drawings, models, prototypes or moulds, created within the scope of selling the Products on line. Consequently, you must not reproduce or utilise the photographs, presentations, designs, drawings, models or prototypes, etc. without our express prior authorisation in writing.

    ARTICLE 18. FORCE MAJEURE

    Any circumstances beyond the control of the parties that prevent the fulfilment of their obligations under normal conditions are considered grounds for exemption of the parties’ obligations, which are therefore suspended.

    The party invoking the aforementioned circumstances must immediately inform the other party of the occurrence, and the cessation, of these circumstances.

    Cases of force majeure will be regarded as events or circumstances that are external to the two parties, unforeseeable, inevitable, beyond the control of the parties, and which could not be prevented by the parties despite all reasonable possible efforts. The following are explicitly considered to be cases of force majeure or acts of God, in addition to those regularly cited by the jurisprudence of French courts of law: blockage of means of transport or supplies, earthquakes, fires, storms, flooding, lightning, outage of telecommunications networks or disturbances specific to telecommunications networks that are external to the parties.

    The parties will confer to examine the incidence of the event and to agree to the conditions under which performance of the GTCS will be pursued. If the case of force majeure lasts for more than three months, these General Terms and Conditions of Sale can be terminated by the aggrieved party.

    ARTICLE 19. PARTIAL NON-VALIDATION

    If one or multiple stipulations of the GTCS are held to be invalid or declared as such pursuant to a law, regulation or final ruling by a competent court of law, the other stipulations shall retain their full force and scope.

    ARTICLE 20. NON-WAIVER

    Should one of the parties not pursue a breach by the other party of any of the obligations set out in these general terms and conditions, this cannot be interpreted for the future as a waiver of the obligation in question.

    ARTICLE 21. APPLICABLE LAW AND DISPUTES

    These general terms and conditions are subject to French law, with the exclusion of the provisions of the Vienna Convention.

    The parties agree to first seek an amicable solution to any dispute that may arise from the interpretation or performance of the GTCS before recourse to any litigation process.

    Any disputes that may arise from the purchase and sale transactions carried out under these General Terms and Conditions of Sale, concerning their validity, their interpretation, their performance, their termination, their consequences and their aftermath, and which could not be resolved between the Seller and the Buyer, will be submitted to the Commercial Court of Marseilles.
