GENERAL INFO

How does the HYPE guarantee work?

HYPE GUARENTEE:

We are fully committed to creating and providing the best standard of jewellery, which is why we offer a 12 month HYPE Guarantee for all purchases of gold plated/vermeil jewellery. If your product arrives damaged or has any manufacturing defect within 12 months of your purchase, our guarantee entitles you to a one-time replacement of the piece – free of charge. This warranty is voided under any user damage issues (scratches and accidental breakage).

In the unlikely event of additional damage to your replacement item, we charge 50% replacement or repair fee of the full value paid, per product. Please reach out to us at contact@hypejewellery.in for details.
*HYPE Guarantee does not cover lost or stolen items*

WHEN AN ITEM RESTOCKS?

We can’t always give a clear time frame on restocks because they’re always subject to change.
Alternatively, you can keep a close eye on our social media and sign up to our newsletter at the bottom of our homepage.

COVID-19

We are shipping internationally and recommend ordering to addresses that you know you’ll be able to access, such as your home, as poised to business addresses that may have restricted access. We’ll be sure to communicate any significant delays with you using the email address that you enter at checkout.

PRODUCT INFO

WHAT MATERIALS DO YOU USE?

We use real 18k Yellow Gold & Rhodium/Palladium Plating on all of our jewellery. Our base metals include 925 Sterling Silver, 316L Surgical Grade Stainless Steel and Brass. Solid Gold is also available on request. All of our jewellery is put through rigorous testing before, during and after production to ensure the highest level of quality and durability. We meet all regulations set by the Vigilance Committees.

HOW SHOULD I STORE/ PROTECT MY JEWELLERY?

Jewellery should be kept dry. If your jewellery is not used frequently, keep it stored in the provided HYPE box. HYPE storage boxes are lined with tarnish-proof fabric and have a separate space for each individual piece. If your climate is humid, place a small packet of desiccant crystals inside your storage area. Avoid storing the jewellery with rubber products. Always remove your jewellery when applying colognes, perfumes or other chemical products. Chlorine, especially at elevated temperatures, can permanently damage or discolour your gold jewellery. Gently clean your gold or vermeil jewellery with a soft cloth.

WHAT MAKES YOUR QUALITY DIFFERENT?

The process we use is the highest quality plating available. This process allows our gold plated jewellery to last longer than any typical gold plating you may be used to. We are constantly working to improve processes to ensure our products are the longest lasting available.

SHIPPING & DELIVERY

A) WILL I BE CHARGED ANY CUSTOM/ IMPORT FEES?

There will be no custom/import fees for anybody in INDIA. When the recipient is outside of this region, they are responsible for assuring the product can be imported into the destination country.

The recipient is the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are imposed once a shipment reaches the recipient’s country.
Customs, duties, and taxes are non-refundable: so, a shipment that is refused because of unexpected import fees, the cost of the total order including original shipping and any return shipping charges will not be refunded. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for more information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. Normal customs clearance is 1 business day.

To avoid a delay in receiving your order from customs, we strongly suggest:


– Providing a phone number where you can be reached by customs when your product arrives. This phone number will be listed on the commercial invoice so customs can reach you to clear your order.
– Please do not refuse a shipment or ignore requests from carriers regarding duty and/or tax liability charges. Be aware that most carriers will hold a shipment for 5 days after arrival in your country before they abandon or return it to the sender.

B) HOW DO I TRACK MY ORDER

You can log into your account through our online store and check the fulfilment status of your recent order.

If you don’t have a HYPE account, you’ll receive a shipping confirmation as soon as your order has been fulfilled. You will then be able to track your order through the track link on the email.

WHY WAS HYPE CREATED?

 With inspiration from the fashion scene, hip hop music and urban culture, we began designing pieces which we and our friends could wear. A lot of people around us started really liking the jewellery which gave us the idea to make it public and open up an Instagram account. The journey started there.
