Return Policy

 

All Cascadia rings are individually custom-made and are not mass produced, off-the-shelf items. Our return policy reflects the fact that each ring is made, by hand, per order, to customer specifications.

Cascadia's 14-day return policy allows time to evaluate our custom-made titanium ring. If for any reason you are not satisfied with your Cascadia titanium ring, we offer a refund, or exchange for a ring configured per the original order, if an RMA is obtained within 14 days of our original shipment, subject to the following:

All returns must be accompanied by a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. Please contact us promptly if you need a RMA number. Once issued, RMA's are valid for 12 days and are not extended. The ring must be received by Cascadia Design Studio within this time period.

If the ring is defective or is the wrong size due to an error in our part, we will repair or exchange the ring for one in the original ordered size, width, style and options. Rings may not be returned for refund after resizing, alteration or exchange.

All Cascadia rings are custom-made to individual customer specifications and are labor intensive, one of a kind pieces that cannot be re-sold. Rings with diamonds, stones or CZs, metal inlays, inside or outside engraving, engraved, milled, or carved designs, patterns, symbols, text or artwork will incur a re-stocking fee of 35% of the purchase price. The re-stocking fee is deducted from the refund.

Rings not in the categories above (i.e. rings without stones, precious metal inlays or milling/carving/engraving work) will incur a re-stocking fee of $25 or 20% of the purchase price, whichever is greater. The re-stocking fee is deducted from the refund.

Shipping, insurance, customs and duty related costs are not refundable and will be deducted from the refund amount. All refunds will be issued to the original payment method to the original bill-to purchaser only, within five business days of receiving the returned ring and gift box in as-new condition.

On international shipments, customs-related fees and charges which include duties, taxes and customs brokerage charges due at the time of delivery are the customer's responsibility. If the recipient refuses the package and/or the fees are not paid, the carrier will return the package to Cascadia Design Studio. The total amount of fees due, plus any return shipping the carrier charges us, will be deducted from the refund.

We will replace lost gemstones or CZs for 90 days from purchase. The cost of replacement diamonds is not covered. Diamonds are normally covered by your homeowner's insurance policy.

Returned rings must be received with the original gift box and in as-new condition, not scratched, altered or damaged in any way.

Cascadia Design Studio reserves the right to deny a refund or exchange, or accept future orders with anyone who, in our determination, is attempting to abuse our policies. Some examples are: 1) Excessive returns or order cancellations in the past. 2) Ordering two rings and attempting to return the one that doesn't fit best. 3) Comparison purchasing: Buying two rings with the intent of keeping the one you like best and returning the other.

Please do not order multiple rings for the purpose of evaluating the sizing, style or options. Our rings are custom made per order and we're happy to provide a free ring sizer, or additional photographs or information to aid in your selection. In many cases (see below) we can alter your ring.  If you have any questions about our rings please contact us.

Resizing and Alterations

Labor for alterations is free of charge within 30 days of original shipment, subject to the following:

We will reshape, refinish or increase the size of your ring, up to 1/2 a size larger, one-time. We can't resize a titanium ring smaller.

Be aware that re-boring the ring interior to enlarge it will remove any inside engraving and some or all of the inside curvature, making the ring shank a little thinner.

Alterations are limited to removal of material from the ring, and the degree of alteration possible depends on the ring style.

Customers outside of the US are responsible for shipping costs both ways for exchanged or re-worked rings shipped by Cascadia Design Studio.

Rings may not be returned for refund after resizing, alteration or exchange.

Ring Sizing Errors

Cascadia is not responsible for inaccurate size information submitted when ordering. In this event, we will attempt to resize your ring at no extra charge, subject to the following:

With our titanium rings, decreasing size is not possible, neither is increasing size by more than 1/2 size, calling for a replacement ring to be made. In this case, obtain an RMA, return the ring within 14 days of original shipment, and we will charge 25% (35% for rings with stones, metal inlays, inside or outside engraving, engraved or milled designs / symbols / text / artwork) of the list price plus shipping to make a custom replacement with the same options (except size) as the original.

It is the customer's responsibility to provide the correct size. We discourage ordering a ring as a gift if the size is unknown because, in our experience, guessing a ring size is almost always incorrect and results in disappointment and added customer expense.  Please make every effort to order the correct ring size.   We make our rings according to this standard ring size chart.   We also offer a free ring sizer with every order.

Order Cancellations

All Cascadia rings are custom made, per order, to your specifications. Should you, for any reason, need to cancel your order after the ring has gone into production, and prior to our shipment, a 25% cancellation fee will be charged to cover our material and production costs. After shipment is delivered, our Return Policies above apply.
