Frequently Asked Questions

WHEN WILL MY ORDER SHIP?

We process and ship orders from our New Jersey warehouse Monday through Friday. Orders with standard shipping are usually fulfilled and shipped within 2-3 business days (M-F) of purchase, unless otherwise noted. Shipping time for custom/handmade pieces may take longer, details of which can be found in the product description. When your order ships, we will email you a shipping confirmation with tracking information. Please check your spam folder if you did not receive the shipping email. Additionally, you can find the tracking number by clicking "My Account" and then "My Orders."

HOW WILL MY JEWELRY ARRIVE?

Your Jewelry will arrive individually wrapped and sealed to ensure they safely get to you. We recommend a jewelry organizer for storage, and a pouch for travel. You can purchase Golden NYC pouches in the shopping bag at checkout. Made-to-order personalized items, such as monograms and nameplates, include a complimentary travel pouch.

WHAT ARE VAULT POINTS?

Vault Points are just our way of saying thank you! You earn one Vault Point for every dollar you spend with us, and you can use those points on future orders. It’s super easy to earn points, and 10 points = $1 to spend on more sparkle. Vault Points are one-time use and non-refundable, so find something you love!

HOW CAN I USE MY VAULT POINTS?

To apply Vault Points to your order, first make sure you are signed into your account. While viewing your shopping cart, there will be a gray box on the right-hand side that says "Using Vault Points?" After you click into the box, you can choose to apply the maximum amount of points available (on the left), or just apply some of the points to your order (on the right). Please note, vault points are one time use. Additionally, if you return an order, the vault points earned on that order will be deducted from your account.

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CHARGED ME MULTIPLE TIMES. HELP!

Unless you received an order confirmation, we did not charge your card. If your credit card was declined, you may see pending transactions for each attempt to submit payment. The pending transaction will clear up within three to five business days, depending on your bank, and will never turn into a charge. You will always get an email confirmation when an order is successfully placed on our site. Please check your billing address before submitting the order again.

WHY WAS MY CREDIT CARD DECLINED?

Most credit cards are declined because the billing address you entered does not match the address your bank has on file. Please be sure to double check this, and if that does not work, please send us an email at helpme@goldennycjewelry.com.

CAN I APPLY A PROMOTION CODE TO AN ORDER I ALREADY PLACED?

Unfortunately, we cannot retroactively apply promotion codes to any orders.

ARE ANY ITEMS EXCLUDED FROM PROMOTION CODES?

In general, promotion codes cannot be used on gift cards and promotional-priced products. Styles from the Personalized Shop and from the Sale are often excluded from promotions, as well. If you have questions about the exclusions or fine print, please email helpme@goldennycjewelry.com.
