When you purchase a loose diamond from our Site, we ship the diamond to you with the accompanying diamond grading report (also called a diamond certificate, or dossier), a detailed and costly document created by diamond grading experts. Because of this cost we incur, we require each diamond grading report is included and returned with any returned diamond. If you do not include the diamond grading report with your return, you will be charged a replacement fee of US$150 (or equivalent amount in other currencies): You agree to this charge on your credit card used for the original transaction.
Comparison purchasing is the act of buying several items with the intent of keeping the one you like best and returning the remainder. This method is costly for Martin Binder Jeweler, and to maintain our low pricing, we do not allow comparison purchasing since this method of purchase causes undue restocking and inventory overhead. To confirm the quality of a jewelry item, please email us or 1-800-337-5184, and we would be happy to help you make your choice. We reserve the right to cancel any items or orders we deem as Comparison Shopping orders, at any time, without notice. You will receive an email of any cancellation.

For gemstone and pearl measurements, a tolerance of 0.25mm is allowed.
For jewelry set with multiple gemstones, with or without diamonds, we provide the minimum total carat weight for the piece, noted by total gemstone weight and total diamond weight.

At Martin Binder Jeweler, we travel overseas to diamond suppliers where our buyers hand-sort, and purchase diamonds through the largest and most respected directly suppliers.
