5. GIFT CARDS

You may purchase a Georg Jensen Gift Card or a Georg Jensen Electronic Gift Card (collectively “Gift Cards”) in any Georg Jensen shop or online at georgjensen.com/en-au.

If purchasing online, you will be required to confirm that you accept these Terms and Conditions.

A Gift Card can only be issued in the currency and the amounts applicable to the country in which it is purchased or issued. Gift Cards purchased in a Georg Jensen Store in Australia or via georgjensen.com/en-au are issued in AUD. Gift Cards can only be redeemed against Georg Jensen products sold in the same currency.

You - or the person you have transferred a Gift Card to - may use a Gift Card in Georg Jensen stores in the country in which the Gift Card was purchased or issued. Gift Cards issued in AUD are redeemable both online at georgjensen.com/en-au and in all Georg Jensen stores in Australia. Please visit the Store Locator or contact our Customer Services team in Australia for details of your nearest store. The Gift Card is not accepted by third parties in Australia or elsewhere selling Georg Jensen products.

Gift Cards will expire 3 years after date of purchase. 

When using a Gift Card on the Georg Jensen online shop, you will be required to give the card number and the PIN which is revealed by scratching off the panel next to the serial number on the back of the Gift Card (physical Gift Cards) or received by e-mail (electronic Gift Cards). 

When you use a Gift Card, the amount of your purchase including VAT will be deducted from the balance on the Gift Card. If your purchase totals less than the value of the Gift Card, any balance will be left as credit for you on the Gift Card to spend in the future. Change will not be given. 

If the amount of your purchase exceeds the balance on your Gift Card you will be required to pay the remaining price of the product by some other acceptable means for payment. You can use up to 3 Gift Cards for the same purchase whether online or instore. 

You may obtain information about the remaining balance on the Gift Card by typing in the Gift Card number in the balance check function on our website.

All refunds of goods or services purchased with a Gift Card will be made in accordance with Georg Jensen’s refund policy. This does not affect your statutory rights. Any refunds will be issued as a new Electronic Gift Card or returned to your existing Gift Card. You may also exchange for other Georg Jensen goods in accordance with Georg Jensen’s exchange policy and no cash refunds will be given. 

Gift cards are not refundable once purchased. 

Georg Jensen is not responsible for any fraudulent use or misuse of the Gift Card. Any lost, stolen or destroyed Gift Cards cannot be replaced. Georg Jensen will cancel the value of a Gift Card if we fail to receive payment from the purchaser's bank or card company for the initial purchase of the Gift Card. 

Georg Jensen is not liable for any other costs or expenses whether direct or indirect incurred to the purchaser except for the value of the gift card upon refund. 
Georg Jensen reserves the right to amend these Terms & Conditions from time to time where we consider it reasonable and necessary to do so; an up-to-date version can be found on our website, georgjensen.com/en-au. 

If you have any issues with using your Gift Card, please contact Georg Jensen Customer Services.

7. RETURN POLICY

If you are unhappy about an item purchased via the online store, where that item is not defective and is not damaged, we may, at our discretion, provide an exchange or refund equal to the amount you paid for the returned item.

You must notify us of your request to return an item within 14 days of the purchase date of that item by contacting us at store.online.au@georgjensen.com or 1800 441 765. 

If we approve your request to return your item, we will provide you with a shipping address and return details. All goods must be received back by us in new and unused condition (including packaging) within 14 days of purchase for an exchange or refund to be issued. 

Goods purchased online may also be returned to a Georg Jensen store (excluding David Jones locations) for exchange if a copy of your purchase invoice is provided.

Refunds for goods purchased online are only available via the online store and must be returned to the shipping address we provide you with. Refunds for online purchases are not possible via Georg Jensen Stores, only exchanges. 

You will be responsible for any return shipping costs of undamaged or non-defective items. 

It is important that you do not break any seal/label on the product. If the seal/label is broken, that product will not be eligible for an exchange or refund. 

If you received a free gift as a part of your purchase, you must also return the free gift to us if you no longer meet the conditions for receiving that free gift. If you no longer meet the conditions for the free gift and do not return the free gift with the purchased item, we will deduct the value of the free gift from the associated refund or exchange.  

Please note that rights to repair, replacement, refund, cancellation or compensation do not apply to items intended for re-sale by the purchaser.

7.1. FAULTY, DAMAGED, MISSING GOODS

While we make every attempt to ensure your order arrives complete, and in undamaged condition, occasionally this does not happen. You must contact Georg Jensen at store.online.au@georgjensen.com or 1800 441 765 within 48 hours of receiving the goods to advise us of any missing item, or that they are in damaged or faulty condition. We will then provide the postage details for the return of the faulty or damaged goods, which will be at no charge to you.

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Georg Jensen is happy to offer a 2-year replacement warranty on all jewellery products and a 1-year replacement warranty on all home products (both, Warranties) from the date of purchase. The Warranties do not apply where the product has been subject to misuse or general wear and tear. An assessment will be made of the product. The product must be returned to the point of purchase with proof of purchase. For homeware goods purchased online, please send a photo of your product to store.online.au@georgjensen.com and we will advise you details of return of product for further assessment.

The Warranties are in addition to guarantees in relation to all Georg Jensen products that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

Please note, stones may show natural discolouration or other natural variations that are not manufacturing or quality defects. Georg Jensen’s decision regarding minor variations is final.

If you choose to receive a refund, we will process that refund within 14 days of receiving the goods. However, you may not receive the refund for some time due to delays by the financial institutions. We have no control over such delays by those financial institutions.

If you elect to receive a replacement, those items will be sent to you as soon as practicable after we receive the returned goods. If we are out of stock of any replacement item, or that item has been discontinued, we will endeavour to contact you to discuss the matter.

If the item is discontinued, we may suggest alternate goods as a replacement. If you decide to accept an alternative item, you must pay any additional costs over the cost of the returned item, or if the cost of the alternative item is less than the returned item we will refund the difference to you.

7.2. PROMOTION AND SALE ITEMS

From time to time, we may offer certain goods as “promotion” or “sale” items (Promotion Items) with a discounted price. Often, Promotion Items contain minor flaws or damage.
You acknowledge that, by purchasing a Promotion Item, you accept that the Promotion Item is sold “as is” and that the discounted price of that item fairly reflects any flaws or damage it may contain. Therefore, Promotion Items are not eligible for a refund or replacement, other than as required by law (such as in the case of an obvious manufacturing fault).Purchases of Promotional Items are limited to 5 per item per purchaser, unless we indicate otherwise.

Final Sale / Discontinued items that are marked as is, are not eligible for return, unless required by law (such as in the case of an obvious manufacturing fault) we recommend choosing carefully to avoid disappointment and suggest contacting customer service for assistance prior to purchasing. 
A notice will appear on the product page and in your cart for items that have been marked as discontinued / final sale, and by purchasing a final sale item you agree that the items cannot be returned.
