Tips & Warnings
Don’t automatically assume a jeweler does not have a rental program simply because it is not advertised. Locally owned jewelry stores are more likely to have some sort of rental program than a larger chain.
As with any type of rental agreement, make sure to read the terms and conditions thoroughly before signing anything. Ask questions about anything you don’t understand. If something in the agreement makes you uncomfortable, take your business elsewhere.
