Effective Date: June 2026

 

Welcome to Van Adams Jewelers. These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of vanadams.com (the "Site") and any products or services offered through the Site or in our Snellville showroom. By accessing the Site, placing an order, or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Throughout these Terms, "we," "us," "our," and "Van Adams Jewelers" refer to Van Adams Jewelers, a family-owned jewelry business operating since 1985, located at 1870 Highway 124 North, Snellville, GA 30078. "You" and "your" refer to any visitor, customer, or client of the Site or our showroom.

 

Section 1  Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the Site, creating an account, placing an order, or visiting our showroom, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. Your continued use of the Site after any updates to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time, with changes posted to this page.

 

Section 2  Use of the Website

The Site is intended for personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, sell, or exploit any portion of the Site without express written permission, use the Site for unlawful purposes, transmit viruses or harmful code, attempt unauthorized access to any part of the Site, or collect personal information of other users. Violation of these conditions may result in termination of your access.

 

Section 3  Products and Pricing

We make every effort to display accurate product descriptions, images, and pricing. However, we cannot guarantee that all information is error-free. Prices are shown in US Dollars and may be updated without notice. If an obvious pricing error appears on the Site, we reserve the right to cancel the order and refund the amount paid.

Photographs of jewelry, diamonds, and gemstones are representative of quality and style. Actual appearance may vary due to monitor settings, lighting, and the handcrafted nature of jewelry.

Section 6  Custom Jewelry and Design Services

Custom jewelry commissions are governed by the terms agreed upon during the design consultation. All custom work is completed in-house under the direct oversight of Van Adams. Custom pieces are non-refundable once production has begun, as each piece is built to the client's specific design.

Design sketches, CAD renderings, and other creative materials produced during the custom process remain the intellectual property of Van Adams Jewelers unless otherwise agreed in writing.

We have on-site jewelers. We accept repairs on pieces purchased from Van Adams Jewelers and from other jewelers.

Van Adams Jewelers is not responsible for pre-existing damage or conditions not identified during the initial evaluation.[U1] 

 

Section 8  We Buy Gold and Diamonds

Van Adams Jewelers purchases gold and diamond jewelry from individuals. All evaluations are free and carry no obligation to sell.

Evaluations are based on current market conditions at the time of assessment and are not binding offers beyond the day they are made.
