You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

What if my item is faulty?

All our items have a 3-month manufacturer warranty starting from the day your order is delivered. The warranty is valid against manufacturing defects. The warranty excludes coverage for wear and tear and/or physical or accidental abuse.   

Medley will accept returns and provide you with a refund (refund will be provided using original payment method) or repair where the goods are:

  • faulty or is not of acceptable quality, or
  • not fit for its intended purpose, or
  • do not match the sample or our description; and

Medley reserves the right to return the product to the manufacturer (or a repairs agent) to determine the nature of the problem. Subject to your rights under Australian Consumer Law, we reserve the right not to offer a refund or repair where the fault is a result of misuse or neglect or does not comply with the terms of the Medley Returns Policy.

 

Please note that Medley does not guarantee our demi-fine product (18k fine gold plated jewellery) or plated products will last forever. Plated pieces are, by default, more fragile and liable to lose their colour over time. The speed at which the plating fades will depend on multiple variables including chemical products used for skincare, perfumes, levels of perspiration or even your natural skin PH. For this reason, it is particularly important to take special care of your plated jewellery. Make sure to read the care instructions delivered with your purchase to ensure greater longevity and wearability of your product.

If you have received an item different to the one that you ordered, please contact our Customer Service team on 1800 522 546 or email contactus@medleyjewellery.com.au, and we will resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

To process a return, head to our returns center and follow the prompts.

Items should be returned in their original packaging. Include a copy of your returns slip or order confirmation email in the package.

All shipping return charges must be pre-paid at your cost. We cannot accept cash on delivery returns.

Medley will pay for any reasonable return shipping costs if the return is the result of our error or the item is received damaged or defective. Please return your order back to us in the original packaging it came in (or smaller), no oversized or large boxes will be accepted (as this increases shipping rates). Medley will not be responsible for increased postage costs due to large packaging and where Medley is liable for return shipping fees, reserves the right to reimburse you for reasonable shipping costs only, and not for any unreasonable or excessive shipping fees incurred.
