Can I Be Sure My Item Is Authentic?
Diamonds in Dubai is recognized as a trusted platform in the UAE for sourcing and selling pristine and pre-loved luxury goods. For this reason, authenticity of our products is our highest priority. We ensure all our products go through our distinctive authentication process. Each item goes through a two phase authentication process. The first step is to be validated by our in-house expert authenticator. The second step is to be scanned by our Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, which uses a scientifically-proven approach to check, verify, and authenticate high value items.
In the unlikely event that a luxury product purchased through us is found to be inauthentic by a reputable authenticator from our list, every client of Diamonds in Dubai is entitled to a guaranteed refund.
Contact us via admin@diamondsindxb.ae for the list of reputable authenticators that we accept.
Why Do You Have A Final Sale Policy On Most Items?
The majority of our curated items are in pristine condition, some still in their original packaging from the brands’ boutiques. Our merchandise is carefully preserved in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment and in their original packaging. Items are only taken out of their original packaging for authentication and photography purposes. Throughout this process, all items are handled with white gloves to avoid any potential damage.
Once an item is no longer in our facility, we cannot guarantee how the item was handled. The smallest change in the item’s condition, such as loss of plastic on the frontal hardware, or scratches on the leather, substantially reduces the value of the item.
Our ethos is to ensure customers are receiving their items as described and photographed on our website and social media platforms. Thus, by enforcing a “final sale” policy, we make certain that our items remain in their condition as described.
How Do You Rate The Condition For Items?
Pristine: new or never worn.
Please note that some items cataloged as “Pristine” may have stickers missing on hardware, or a missing purcahse receipt. Each time will include a description with full details about what is not included in each item listed.
Categories for “Preloved” items:
Each “Preloved” item will include a description with full details about imperfections, wear, and if any materials are missing.
Mint: hard to believe somebody owned it before. Showing minimum signs of wear.
Very Good: more than one imperfection.
Good: remains in good condition, but has moderate imperfections that are visible.
Fair: has visible imperfections such as scratches, discoloration and/or tearing. The product is still in fair condition and usually sold at a discounted price compared to similar items in better condition.
