Ordering, Delivery and Returns
Free UK Delivery On All Orders
We are proud to offer free UK delivery on all orders placed on our website. Robert Gatward Jewellers currently only operates and supplies to the United Kingdom.
Orders placed before 12pm Tuesday – Friday will be dispatched the same day (stock permitting). Orders placed after 12pm on Friday through to Monday will be dispatched on Tuesday. If there is a specific day that you would like to receive your order, please let us know as soon as you have placed your order and we will try our best to accommodate.
Orders that total £100 or more will be posted using Royal Mail Special Delivery. Orders that total less than £100 will be posted using Royal Mail 1st Class Signed For Delivery (1-2 working days). Although we cannot guarantee next day delivery with this service we have found that the majority of these orders arrive the next working day, in some cases including Saturday.

How Will My Order Arrive?
At Robert Gatward we aim to make your online purchase the same familiar first class experience as if you were purchasing your jewellery in one of our lovely stores.
All orders are sent out in plain packaging with no mention of Robert Gatward Jewellers on the outside. If the item you ordered is a surprise present, the wording on the packaging will not give any indication to the item enclosed.
Although the utmost care and attention is given to ensure your order arrives with you in perfect condition, please take some time to inspect the parcel upon delivery before you sign for it. We encourage that you please check for any damage, rips, or cuts to the parcel itself that would indicate it had been tampered with. Only when you are completely satisfied with the condition should you sign for the delivery.

Online Returns
We are proud to offer free and fast delivery on all orders placed on our website! However, to return an item for a refund or exchange you will be responsible for the return postage cost. We ask that you use a tracked service to return your item and ensure that the parcel is packaged securely.
Online orders can be returned to us for a full refund or exchange. If you want to return an item, please notify us within 14 days of its purchase by requesting a "Return Form" by emailing info@robertgatward.com and explaining the reasons for your decision, including your order number. You will then be emailed a completed "Returns Form". All details of where/how to send your return will be outlined when you are contacted, usually within 24 hours. We will process your return and you will have a further 14 days to return the item/s along with the "Return Form" (28 days in total).
You may return your item/s to a Robert Gatward store if you prefer. However, you must still request a "Returns Form" beforehand by emailing info@robertgatward.com (detailed above) so we can confirm your return. In store you will need to bring in your completed "Returns Form" that will be provided to you and the store team will be able to effectively issue your refund/exchange. Please note that we will not be able to process your return without a completed "Returns Form" by a member of our website team.
Faulty items can be returned within 30 days of purchase. The procedure of returning the faulty items is same as above.
An online return will be refunded on the same tender type that was first used.
All items must be returned within 28 days of receiving the item/s, and a returns form must be requested within 14 days of receiving the item. Items returned outside of this period will not be exchanged or refunded, but will be returned to sender.
Although your statutory rights as a consumer will not be affected, the goods are second hand without the packaging and we may not therefore be able to exchange them voluntarily. You can take the goods out of the packaging to try them out, but don't throw it away. Additionally any free promotional gift issued with an order must also be returned.
The goods must be returned unused, with all labels and tags attached and with their original undamaged packaging. We will consider the condition of the goods being returned when making a refund.
The only exceptions that we cannot refund/exchange are:
1. Gift vouchers
2. Customised items (e.g. personal engraving)
3. Special orders - these include things that cannot be ordered from our website without special request, e.g. engagement rings or wedding rings made to a finger size outside of our standard selection (J, K, L, M, N, O), and out of stock items that are ordered in by special request.
For returns information regarding Engagement Rings, please click here.
Please note that items purchased in store cannot be refunded, but can be exchanged if returned in an unworn condition within 14 days of purchase. The item must be returned in a new, unworn condition with all original packaging. Items purchased in store can only be exchange in store, and not online.
None of the above terms affect your statutory rights when goods are faulty or incorrectly supplied nor does it affect your rights under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations.
Extended Christmas Returns
Purchase orders made online from Tuesday 3rd December 2024, can be exchanged or refunded until Wednesday 15th January 2025. If you would like to exchange or refund your order, please email us on info@robertgatward.com by Monday 6th January 2025. Goods must be unused and in the original (unaltered) packaging. This return policy is in addition to your statutory rights.
