We run two types of auctions - Falling Price Auctions and Rapid Drop Auctions.

In our Falling Price Auctions, you get to decide the price you want to pay. The price can be as low you like, because it's like the reverse of a traditional auction in that the price will continue to fall until you decide to buy the item. If nobody buys it, the price will keep falling, but we suggest you don't wait too long because there is strictly limited stock on showcase for these auctions, so once it's gone, it's gone.

With our Rapid Drop Auctions, we drop the price only once to our very lowest price bargain. It's first come first served, so be quick to get your bid in and bag the item!

The quantity of each item is reduced every time a bid is received, but you will have nothing to lose from getting your bid in early to secure your purchase, since everybody pays the final lowest price - this could be as low as £1 or even FREE.

For example, if you're the first bidder for an item which costs £50, you can relax in knowing that you will pay the final lowest price of the last item to be 'Sold'. Remember, you are in the running against other Television and Website bidders, so the only way you can really lose is if you don't bid!

To buy from our website, the first thing you need to do is register with us. Simply provide your email address plus a few minor personal details and you will receive a pin number. It's free to register with TJC and there's no obligation to make a purchase.

If you're new to TJC register now. If you're already a TJC customer, simply login to make a purchase, track orders and take part in Auctions.

Yes, you will automatically receive a confirmation email from us after you've placed an order. It will list your order number and confirm the item(s) that you've successfully purchased.

Each individual order will have a separate order number which will also allow you to track your order.

To bid by telephone, simply give us a call from a landline or a registered mobile phone. Please call our Customer Services Team to register beforehand on 0344 375 2525 (press 3 to register).

When you see an item you want to purchase:

• Dial the number on screen, 0800 298 4444 (Freephone)
• Press # to bid
• Choose size/colour options if applicable
• Hold to speak to our UK call centre

Your call is charged at the same rate as a local call. Full copy of the Terms & Conditions are available on this website or upon request from our Customer Service Centre.

While we generally feature the same products again at a later date, there is no guarantee that you will see it again or at the same price.

We must also advise that the high volume of online and telephone bidders means our pieces often fly off the shelves, so if you see something that you think is a 'must-have', it's best to place your bid before someone else does!

This perk means we will take the lowest priced item in the promotion and cost it at zero on your invoice.

BudgetPay is TJC's split payment system. It means that you can spread the cost of your new items into two or three predetermined easy monthly instalments - all completely interest free. When you order you'll make your first payment, along with any Postage & Packaging costs. Then there's no waiting around, your product will be dispatched for you to enjoy straightaway.

When you're shopping from live TV auctions, the presenters will indicate which items are eligible for BudgetPay. When shopping online the BudgetPay logo is shown either next to the product image, title or price of the eligible items. You will also be given the BudgetPay payment option when ordering an eligible item through the automated phone system on 0800 298 4444.

BudgetPay instalments must be paid with a credit or debit card. We take payment of the first instalment and postage and packaging when you place your order and then subsequent instalments will be taken automatically from the same card until the order is paid in full.

To use BudgetPay, your credit or debit card must be valid for longer than 3 months following the date of your order. Please note: If the credit or debit card you used to pay your BudgetPay instalments is lost, stolen or cancelled, you must contact Customer Services so that we can update your BudgetPay account with your new card details.

We will attempt to collect an instalment three times before escalating the requirement of the missing funds over to a debt collection agency. On the third attempt, we will add a second administration charge of £15.00 plus VAT to your account if this also fails.

At this point all remaining funds required for full settlement of the outstanding balance for your items (comprising the missed instalments and any future instalments) will be payable immediately in full, together with the combined missed payment administration fees of £30 plus VAT.

A debt collection agency will be instructed to recover these amounts from you and they will add additional administrative charges to the outstanding debt. Failure to settle the account with the debt collection agency may result in legal action being taken against you and any legal fees and costs added to your outstanding debt.

If you need to return an item, we will refund your card for the exact amount that you have paid so far for that item excluding Postage & Packaging.

To obtain a true value of your item, you will need to contact an independent consultant who is trained in gemstone valuation.

This would invalidate your eligibility to return the product.

In 2003, leading organisations in the industry agreed on a program of self-regulation to complement the Kimberley Process, which was created by the Governments of countries involved in the diamond trade. The core of the program is a chain of warranties that follows rough diamonds, polished diamonds and jewellery containing diamonds through the supply chain to ensure they comes from legitimate sources.

We at TJC welcome and fully support this global system, as it's designed to fight against the illegal traffic of 'conflict diamonds'. Every product we sell containing diamonds is covered by the following guarantee:

"TJC only sells diamonds purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict and in compliance with United Nations resolutions. TJC hereby guarantees that the diamonds contained in all our products are certified to be from sources that are free from conflict, based on personal knowledge, and/or written guarantees provided by the supplier of these diamonds."

As a Trade Member of the program, we also continue to encourage other vendors of diamonds and diamond products to adhere to this Code of Practice.

For more information about the program and the diamond trade, see www.diamondfacts.org. Finally, rest assured that TJC internally grade diamonds for clarity and colour if they have not been independently certified.
