Before selecting membership level - please read carefully the outline of services available for you. We offer membership levels to accommodate any budget. There's never been a network like GemFind.com - this network gives consumers the choice to see items first at retail locations or buy directly from the network. And of course there's never been a jewelry network like GemFind that shares its revenues with its affiliates, even when they don't see the customer in their store or make the sale directly. |
|||
| For Consumers: | |||
|
GemFind offers a unique shopping experience for consumers to purchase items through
a safe and secure shopping network. Consumers will know that they are buying items
from fine retailers and not some unknown entity on the internet somewhere. Consumers have the option to BUY NOW from the network or SEE IT FIRST at local GemFind affiliate near them - affiliate items such as loose diamonds, engagement rings, finished jewelry and watches are available for viewing in person.. |
|||
|
For Affiliates:
|
|||
|
Retail Affiliate - GemFind offers a unique opportunity for retail jewelers to sell,
either their own merchandise or manufacturers merchandise through our BUY NOW
or SEE IT FIRST network. (There are two levels of membership available
in this area, see below for details). |
|||
|
Here's how it works for loose diamonds in Level I
- retail jewelers can upload their own loose inventory; utilize existing inventory
from various diamond vendors as well as their own vendors’ inventory all with
their own mark-up capability. They will introduce these diamonds in their area via
ZIP code search by consumers. Once a consumer finds a particular diamond of interest,
they will have two options - BUY NOW or SEE IT FIRST
- if they choose to SEE IT FIRST, they can call or email the affiliate
for an appointment to see the diamond in person. If they wish to BUY NOW
- they will be able to buy the item from the network through a safe and secure shopping
cart. And if the consumer chooses the later, the affiliate will receive 20% of the
net profit as commission based on their territory. |
|||
|
Who makes the sale of the diamond? Under Level I
membership: If the diamond of choice is owned by the affiliate showing the diamond
under SEE IT FIRST; then the sale, taxes and return policy is the
responsibility of the affiliate - no commission is paid to GemFind. If a diamond
is sent by a diamond vendor to an affiliate to make the presentation, then the affiliate
is responsible for shipping charges back to the vendor if the diamond is not sold.
However if the sale is completed through GemFind's shopping cart - GemFind will
send a check to the diamond vendor and the affiliate for their commission under
the BUY NOW feature. Either case the affiliate gets compensation for the diamond
being sold. |
|||
|
When a diamond is sold through BUY NOWfeature.Level IIf
the consumer decides to buy a diamond without seeing it first from an affiliate's
ZIP code - the affiliate receive a 20% of the net sale from GemFind, even if they
never saw the customer. (Minus applicable expenses) |
|||
|
Here's how it works for finished jewelry & watches; Level
I -The affiliate has two options to showcase
