Shipping & Delivery
Shipping and delivery
In-stock orders leave our Chula Vista warehouse within 24 hours on business days. Standard delivery is estimated at 2–5 business days across the contiguous 48 states.
Where your order ships from
Everything marked in stock ships from our own warehouse in Chula Vista, California — not from an overseas fulfilment partner.
US Jewelry Wholesale
3802 Main Street, Suite 3
Chula Vista, CA 91911
United States
Because the stock is already in the country, there is no production queue and no customs clearance between your order and your shelf.
Processing time and cut-off
- In-stock orders ship within 24 hours of payment on a business day.
- Cut-off is 12:00 pm Pacific Time. Paid before then, we prepare same-day dispatch when stock allows; later orders go out the next business day.
- Weekends and US public holidays are not dispatch days.
- Mixed orders of in-stock and custom items ship together once the custom pieces are ready, unless you ask us to split them.
Dispatch is when the parcel leaves us. It is not a delivery guarantee — arrival depends on the carrier and your address.
Delivery estimates
- Standard: 3–5 business days after dispatch.
- Express: 1–3 business days after dispatch.
- Alaska, Hawaii and US territories: longer, priced at checkout.
- International: on request; duties and import taxes are the buyer's responsibility.
Tracking
You will get a tracking number by email once the carrier scans the parcel.
If tracking has not moved for two business days, tell us and we will open a trace with the carrier rather than asking you to chase it.
If something goes wrong
- Lost in transit. Report it and we open a carrier trace within 1 business day. Once the carrier confirms the loss, we reship or refund within 2 business days.
- Damaged or short. Send photos within 5 days of delivery; we replace or credit the affected pieces.
- Address entered incorrectly. Tell us before dispatch and we correct it free of charge. After dispatch, the carrier's redirect or return fee applies.
- Returned to sender. If the address error was on the buyer's side, we refund the goods less the actual shipping cost. If it was ours, we cover everything.
- Refused or unclaimed parcels. Treated as a return; original shipping is not refunded.
Changes and cancellations
Before dispatch: email us and we will amend quantities, swap styles or cancel at no charge.
After dispatch: the order cannot be cancelled. It can be returned under the returns policy, with return shipping paid by the buyer unless the fault was ours.
Out-of-stock items
Stock is checked before packing, not after you have paid and waited.
If a style turns out to be unavailable we contact you within 1 business day. You choose: refund that line, substitute a comparable style you approve, or wait for the restock date. We never substitute a style on our own.
Custom orders and free shipping
Free shipping applies to ready-to-ship orders of $150 or more. Custom manufacturing runs are quoted separately, because their freight depends on volume, packaging and destination rather than order value.
Shipping rates
Rates apply to the contiguous 48 states. Alaska, Hawaii and international destinations are quoted at checkout or on request.

Shipping questions
How quickly will my order ship?
In-stock orders paid before 12:00 pm Pacific on a business day are prepared for same-day dispatch; otherwise the next business day. The 24-hour figure is a dispatch window, not a delivery promise.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes — ready-to-ship orders of $150 or more ship free within the contiguous 48 states. Below that, standard is $8.00 and express is $15.00.
Can I cancel or change an order?
Yes, free of charge any time before dispatch. Once the parcel has left Chula Vista it cannot be cancelled, but it can be returned.
What happens if an item is out of stock?
We contact you within one business day and you choose between a refund, an approved substitute, or waiting for the restock. We never substitute without your approval.
What if my parcel is lost?
Report it and we open a carrier trace within one business day. Once the carrier confirms the loss we reship or refund within two business days.
Do you ship outside the United States?
International shipping is available on request. Duties and import taxes are the buyer's responsibility, and we quote the freight before you commit.
No answers match that word yet — email us and we will add it.
