Good quality and service

I had to return the first pair I bought (my wife didn’t like the shape I picked out) and customer service was very helpful. My wife loved the earrings the second time around.

Very poor quality and customer service…

Very poor quality and customer service is nonexistent. My husband purchased diamond hoops for me, but one earring kept falling off due to a poor latching mechanism. I sent them back to be repaired or replaced 2 months ago. I checked with the storefront where the manager said it would only be a few weeks as the company would more than likely just send me a new pair. After several weeks, I questioned the store manager 4 more times, and he said it was out of their hands now. I called customer service and was assured I would receive a call within the day. NOTHING! - I called yet again and received no callback. I needed my earrings for a special occasion, and now I have nothing except the "we are processing your order" email from 2 weeks ago. Do not purchase anyting from Blue Nile as the jewelery may be nice BUT the Customer Service is NOT

Always discrete shipping and the products are always beautiful and look like what is pictured on the website. Blue Nile jewelry doesn’t look cheap and it is a great value for the price. I always know I’m going to nail a gift when I choose blue Nile.

No Engraving as Requested

I order with engrave request and it did not come with engraving, due to wedding time I had to use the ring. Not a pleasant experience. Not satisfied.

Costly and inefficient

I spent an inodinate amount od lf time ordering the ring, I kept telling her that the sapphire was too dark but I was willing to buy the actual ring I tried on because it has a greenish blue color which was unusual. The ring took an additional week to arrive. I called customer service the week before it was delivered and begged that the lightest blue be selected. Instead, the sapphire was so dark it reminded me of obsidian. I was told it would take 4 weeks to be reimbursed! It took the store two days ti send it back! Ms. Thule Huff

We hope to have the pleasure of assisting you again soon!

I Purchased a 5c tennis necklace and it arrived with a kink in the chain, also wasn’t happy with the look and size of the diamonds. I returned it and purchased the 10c tennis necklace, which is amazing, but I’m still waiting on a refund from the original 5c necklace. I’ve been waiting now for over 3weeks without a refund. This process is taking way too long and isn’t acceptable.

AVOID- $1,400 gone with no resolution

I purchased a $1,400 engagement ring with a protection plan and it required resizing after proposing. I shipped it to Blue Nile and received no updates after several months. Time and time again, I reached out to their support chat and was told to wait and that someone would reach out to me. It was implied that they had it, and it was in early production. Only after 4 or 5 months of this was I told that the ring was never recieved, and the support and security teams told me to kick rocks, refusing any kind of assistance. This company truly scammed me and lied to me, and now I am down $1,400 and unable to afford a replacement. I saved for months for this ring.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and we are sorry to hear of your experience. An investigation determined the next steps in your case were very limited as the return label was not used through the carrier. Our customer care team will be able to assist with any further questions you may have.
