Overall, I’ve ordered a few things from Sheils and I’m pretty happy. The only thing that broke was a ruby and diamond heart enhancer; the enhancer clasp broke, but I got lots of comments on the ston... See more

Buying online can often end in a bad experience, but not with Shiels. My earrings were described perfectly, hoops, not snuggies and bright sparkling diamonds. The entire process from order to delivery... See more

The ring I purchased is perfect and much better than I expected - free upgraded main stone level than the website stated after the email request. Also my finger size is smaller than the resize option... See more

Avoid purchasing from Shiels - invalid order cancellation

Avoid purchasing from Shiels (and affiliated companies Grahams, Watch Depot) as they cancelled a watch order, bought and paid for in good faith. There was no attempt to remedy the issue or offer an alternative deal. I will not purchase from this company again. They made it very clear that I am most certainly not a "VIP customer" (marketing name only).

Always great service

Second time I have purchased something from Shiels/Graham's great prices and awesome website to navigate. Only negative would be dispatch time but around Xmas you expect delays.

I do love the choice of materials which gives you a great price range.
Postage was acceptable with a reasonable delivery time
One downside was the lack of communication

As seen here

Shipping was quick. The design was exactly how it looked on the website, quite intricate and the gold colour is vivid rather than pale.

I first saw these bangles when I was shopping at Mandurah Forum the week before Christmas. The lady who served me worked through her lunch break as they were so busy!! I wish I knew her name.
I loved the bangles so much, I ordered more on line. This was very easy to do and my goods were delivered very quickly!
Well done as usual Shiels xx

Shiels Buyers Beware

The purchased ring was not as described. The online photographs were enhanced and deceptive. The quality was poor. First email requesting return an refund received irrelevant reply declining and not addressing the reason for the return. Follow up email to Shiels pointing out their failures under ACC regulations has not been replied to. I placed trust in an Australian buisness and they have failed leaving me $600 out of pocket for an inferior item. I do not recommend Shiels - buyer beware!

## A reply was sent to Shiels - they failed and a complaint is being made to ACCC
