Frequently Asked Questions


Q: How do I purchase "custom made chains any size" online?
A: It couldn't be easier. Just click on the chain that you like and type in the box how many inches (including the clasp) that you would like. We then custom make the chain here and send it to you. Its that simple!
   
Q: How do I order multiple chains of the same style of chain?
A: After clicking on the photo of the chain you like, type in the total number of inches you want in the "Quantity" box. For example, if you want three twenty inch chains of the same chain design, then simply order the total number of inches needed - in this case 60 inches. Then during the check out process you will see a "Special Order Instructions" box. In this box you can type any special instructions you may have, including multiple chains of the same chain style. For example: "I want three twenty inch chains for the 60" of the #G02 Rope Chain I ordered."
   
Q: Do you sell pre-made chains?
A: NEVER! We don't even like mentioning that "word" here. You'll never get a pre-made (ouch!) chain from us. All BuyChains.com chains are custom made for you to your exact requirements.
   
Q: What is the chain made of?
A:
Inch Of Gold is 18K gold-layered chain with Acryseal, an exclusive protectant that ensures long lasting wearability.
Inch of Silver (Layered) is sterling silver layered chain protected with Acryseal.
Inch Of Silver (.925) is .925 sterling silver chain.
Cat's Eyes chain is Sterling Silver layered links with Acryseal and colored "Cat's eyes," which are fiber composite beads that are virtually indestructible.
   
Q: Does the total length of each chain include the clasp?
A: Yes. For example, if you choose a 20-inch chain, it will be a total length of 20-inches including the clasp.
   
Q: What kind of clasps go on the chains?
A: Only the highest quality clasps are attached to your chains of choice.
   
Q: Do I pay extra for the clasps?
A: No. The clasps are free.
   
Q: Is there a minimum or maximum of how short or long a chain can be?
A: You can make the chains in any length that you like. OK, how about from 3 to 300 inches?
   
Q: Are the chains guaranteed and if so, how?
A: Absolutely. All chains come with a free guarantee in writing from the manufacturer who's been in business since 1982. The breakdown of how the chains are guaranteed is as follows:

Inch Of Gold, Inch Of Silver (Layered) & Cat's Eyes Chain
Guaranteed to be repaired or replaced at no charge with no time limit. This covers anything for any reason that would cause the chain not to look as good as the day you received it.
Inch Of Silver (.925)
Guaranteed against any defects whatsoever, but not due to the natural discoloration that may occur as with all sterling silver. The fact is that all sterling silver can eventually tarnish over time, so just use one of many available, inexpensive silver cleaners and/or wipe it with a polishing cloth periodically.
   
Q: Do you have a clear return policy?
A: Yes. We have a very liberal return policy in addition to the manufacturer's guarantee that covers the product after that period. Please see 'SHIPPING & RETURNS" for details.
   
Q: Is there a minimum purchase?
A: Yes. The minimum purchase is $20.
   
Q: What type of payment is accepted?
A: Major credit cards including Visa, Master Card, American Express & Discover are accepted. We also accept checks and money orders via snail mail.
   
Q: What if I have questions that are not listed here?
A: Please contact us by e-mail, phone or fax and we'll respond promptly to any questions, comments or special requests that you may have.
   
Q: Can I get a chain sized to the 1/4 inch or 1/2 inch legth?
A: Yes-and we'll do it for you at no extra charge! For example, if you want a 7 1/2 inch chain, just order 7 inches and tell us you really want a 7 1/2 inch chain via e-mail or in the "Special Instructions" box during the check out process of placing your order. We will make your chain as close as possible to the extra length you want.
   
Q: Do I have to pay sales tax?
A: You do not pay sales tax unless you are in the state of Florida.
