If a package or item delivered to you arrives damaged, please refuse the shipment or call us immediately at 1-800-242-2728. Please retain all packing materials unless instructed otherwise by Blue Nile. Claims for damaged or missing items must be reported immediately or within five days of receipt of your order. Blue Nile is not responsible for lost or damaged returned shipments. 

All Blue Nile engraved rings may be returned for credit, however, a repolishing fee of $25 will apply. Removal of Blue Nile engraving from any exchanged or resized ring is free, with no additional engraving fee. 

Diamonds purchased as part of our Blue Nile Diamond Upgrade Program may not be returned for credit, but can be exchanged within 30 days. 

Special orders are final sale and are not eligible for return or exchange. 

Shipping fees are non-refundable. 

Returns without a Blue Nile Return Merchandise Authorization will be refused upon receipt. Returns with missing paperwork or product will not be processed. 

Diamond and gemstone eternity rings with a specific number of gemstones per finger size; milgrain or ornate bands; some silver rings; or rings with alternative metals such as Tungsten cannot be resized, so please take care to order the correct ring size at time of purchase. For assistance determining the proper ring size, please contact customer service or use our online ring sizer tool. 

1. Select your carrier and initiate your return. 

If returning within 30 days, a free FedEx shipping label will be emailed to you once you have initiated your return (limit of two complimentary returns per customer, per year). If returning outside of 30 days (for resizing, cleaning, or repairs), you may return your merchandise using the carrier of your choice. All returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number that must be clearly written on the outside of the shipping box you are returning. Simply print the label and affix to the outside top portion of the box. We offer the following options to initiate your return: 

3. Insuring your return shipment for its full purchase value is strongly recommended. We are not responsible for lost or stolen articles. If using our complimentary return service, the shipping label emailed to you includes insurance protection. If you are not using our complimentary service (ex. free return label quota already met, or returning for resizing, cleaning, or repairs outside of 30 days), we offer an expedited return shipping. A fully insured return shipping label is $30 for packages shipped within the US and $50 for packages shipped internationally.

Returns are processed weekdays and typically entered into our system within 24 business hours of receipt. Please allow five to 15 business days for this process to complete. 

If you are expecting a refund, credit will be submitted to your bank within three business days. It may take your bank up to 10 business days to post the funds to your account. Bank wire refunds typically take seven to 10 business days after the return has been processed. Returned orders with bank wire as the original payment method will be refunded via bank wire or ACH payment. Orders paid for through PayPal will be credited back to your PayPal account within two weeks. 

Please note that after a significant holiday, heavier return volumes can double the normal return processing times. 

If you are expecting a return shipment, you will receive an email once the outbound shipment date has been set. You will also receive a shipping confirmation email the day of the outbound shipment. 

If you would like to change or cancel an order please call a Blue Nile Diamond and Jewelry Consultant at 1-800-242-2728. We will attempt to accommodate order changes to the extent possible prior to shipping confirmation. Some changes will result in a shipping delay. We are unable to accommodate changes or cancellations on special order requests and/or orders that have already shipped. If your order has already shipped, please contact us to set up a merchandise return once you have received the shipment.

Check the status of your returned item on our Return Status page. 

Individual items may be returned for refund, resize, and some repairs. Please contact one of our experts at customer service for more information. For exchanges or repairs outside of 60-days please call a Service Specialist at 1-800-242-2728 for assistance.

Special orders and engraved jewelry items (other than rings) are final sale.

Any ring where personal engraving was added may be returned, exchanged or resized where possible (with the exception of special orders).

Once a returned item passes our quality inspection and is fully processed for refund, it typically takes two to eight days for your credit card company to refund your account.

Returned orders with bank wire as the original payment method will be refunded via bank wire or ACH payment.

Our commitment to you does not end at delivery. Items may be returned or exchanged within 30 days from when they were shipped, free-of-charge and no questions asked. Please note: Two complimentary returns are allowed per customer, per year.
