The advertised price for pre-purchased necklaces are valid for 6 months after the original purchase date.   This means Coveted customers must return their waxes for casting within 6 months of purchase in order for Coveted to honour the pre-purchase price.  

Six months after the initial purchase (if your wax impressions are still not returned) Coveted Limited reserves the right to charge you the balance between the original advertised price at the time of purchase and the new price (at the time of casting) to cover the increased cost of production.

At Coveted our product prices align with the international daily spot prices of pure gold and silver. Over time these prices generally increase in value steadily.  This is out of our control as we are subjected to fluctuations in the market.
