We reserve the right to update these terms at any time. Continued use of the site following any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
2. Products & Descriptions
We take every care to ensure product descriptions, weights, purities, and images are accurate. However:
- All weights and measurements are approximate and subject to standard manufacturing tolerances.
- Product images are for illustration; minor colour variation may occur due to photography lighting.
- We reserve the right to substitute a product of equal or greater specification if a listed item becomes unavailable.

3. Pricing & Payment
- All prices are displayed in the store's listed currency and are inclusive of applicable taxes unless stated otherwise.
- Precious metal prices are subject to market fluctuation. We reserve the right to amend prices before an order is confirmed.
- Payment must be completed in full before goods are dispatched.
- For manual payment methods (bank transfer, crypto, etc.) orders are held for 72 hours awaiting confirmation. Uncompleted orders may be cancelled.
- We are not responsible for bank fees, currency conversion charges, or blockchain network fees.
