Packaging and Shipping: Your purchases at Savvy Silver are carefully packaged in a sealed plastic bag, then placed in an elegant silver jewelry box (100% recycled material and the box is filled with polyfill) and wrapped in a pretty bow. They are shipped within 3 -5 days after I verify receipt of payment. I mail purchases Monday through Friday, excluding holidays (please remember not to include these days when considering shipment time lines). If for some reason shipment will be delayed, I will contact you via e-mail. I notify customers when their orders have been mailed.
♦♦♦ If there is a disparity between the address you list on the Savvy Silver Website and your Paypal address, I will ALWAYS SHIP to your Paypal address!! ♦♦♦ Insurance: ALL domestic shipments are fully insured by me, at no additional cost to my customers! ***IMPORTANT*** IF AN ITEM IS MISSING FROM YOUR PACKAGE OR DAMAGED DURING TRANSIT, CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY AND SAVE EVERYTHING! AS THE BUYER, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO FILE THE INSURANCE CLAIM WITH THE USPS. ADDITIONALLY, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO BRING THE PACKAGING AND ALL CONTENTS TO THE USPS WHEN YOU FILE THAT CLAIM. IF YOU DO NOT, I CANNOT BE REIMBURSED ... WHICH MEANS I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REIMBURSE YOU FOR THE LOSS OR DAMAGE!!! THANK YOU!! *Domestic Purchases (USA): Shipping charges apply everywhere within the US, including Hawaii and Alaska. Shipping prices just went up again in 2011!! My new shipping prices are listed below:
For all Orders/Purchases equaling $39.99 or less => Shipping Costs are $4.00 For all Orders/Purchases equaling $40.00 to $99.99 => Shipping costs are $6.00 For all Orders/Purchases equaling $100.00 or more* => Shipping Costs Vary => Realtime Shipping Costs Calculation by USPS, including insurance covering purchase order value. For all jewelry purchases, I will ship your jewelry items via USPS First Class Mail Package, packaging your items in a Bubble Mailer Envelope. Although there is no guaranteed delivery time, the estimated delivery time is approximately 3-7 days within the continental U.S. Obviously, it will take a little longer for delivery if you live in either Hawaii or Alaska. This is the most economical method. *Expedite Shipment: If you would prefer to expedite your shipment, I have provided an option whereby you may upgrade your shipment via USPS Express Mail Service - Package. Costs vary depending on where the shipments are sent. Please use the shipping quote feature to find out the actual cost. These packages are usually delivered within a day (overnight) of shipment dropoff. Get Shipping Quote:
There are several methods of determining your shipping costs. You can wait until you checkout and scroll through the shipping methods drop down menu to pick your shipping method of choice. You can also click on the top navigation bar's "Shopping Cart" link. Once you are on the Edit Cart page, you can click on "Get Shipping Quote for this Order". Additionally, you can click on the "Get Shipping Quote" link in the My Cart box in the upper right hand side of the site.
*International Purchases: There are legal restrictions and prohibitions regarding shipping jewelry, precious stones and precious metals internationally, with which I must comply. As such, I am either required to ship items using a specific method (often registered and insured - which is more costly) or I am prohibited from sending them entirely. Even though many online webstores ship their items cheaply, they are not complying with customs laws. I feel compelled to follow these legal mandates for two reasons: (1) My reputation is at stake and I am going to run my business in a responsible manner and (2) I want to make sure the shipment gets to you! So, if you really like something and would like to know how much it really costs to legally ship jewelry to your country, simply email me at savvysilverinfo@sbcglobal.net. Please let me know which country you would like the item(s) shipped to and what handmade jewelry item(s) you are interested in (so I can weigh them and figure out the insurance cost). I will let you know if I can ship, what method I must ship, and your total cost to ship. Thanks!! Customs, Duties, and Taxes - All import taxes, customs duties and fees are the responsibility of the buyer. As a buyer, you are responsible for assuring that the product can be lawfully imported to the destination country. When ordering from www.SavvySilver.com, the recipient/buyer is the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country. Orders that are shipped to countries outside of the United States may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees levied by the destination country. The recipient/buyer of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient/buyer; Savvy Silver has no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for further information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. Ordering and Payment: Please click here for more information.
