I purchased a tiffany & co. engagement ring about a year ago now. Sadly the marriage didn't last more than 3 months and by January I was past the 30 day return period. I asked both in person at the Tiffany store, and via email to the manager and salesperson that sold me the ring, what my options might be. I was told the only thing I could do was try and sell the ring elsewhere. With no luck on ebay and no luck getting in touch with the recommended local auction house I am stuck with this ring.
Fast forward to last month, Tiffany credit informs me there is a broken engagement return policy and I should ask the store manager if they would honor that. The store manager more or less laughed me out of the store, saying that policy only extends for 6 months from initial purchase. My argument was that I attempted to return the ring well within her stated 6 months and I could prove it with saved emails. I got nowhere. Dejected and upset, I called the tiffany online customer service line, where they had not heard of this broken engagement policy (but did manage to find some info on it), they said it was up to the store managers discretion and nobody could overrule that decision. They called the store and conferred with the manager I spoke with, but couldn't help. Needless to say I'm really not happy that I wasn't given this return option in January, and now told to pound sand with no recourse. So much for Tiffany & Co. service.
Please, any assistance would be most appreciated, this ring has become a sharp thorn stuck in my broken heart.
TLDR: I'm stuck with an overpriced tiffany & co. diamond engagement ring, can anyone help with a suggestion for return or how to sell without taking a massive loss on the sale? Thank you.
