Our Returns & Exchanges Policy
For items purchased directly from James Avery, all returns made within 365 days, in new and unused condition and with a receipt or proof of purchase will be credited to your original method of payment. If we agree to issue a refund with no receipt or proof of purchase, the current retail price will be credited to a James Avery gift card.
James Avery products purchased through another retailer such as Dillard’s or AAFES may be exchanged for another product or returned for a James Avery gift card at any James Avery retail location if the items are in new, unused condition and you have a receipt. All returns and exchanges are handled on a case-by-case basis.
