How do I recharge my crystal?
There are a number of methods used to recharge crystals. These are outlined in “Recharging and Energising your Crystals”, choose the method that suits you the best.

Is the product I select to purchase on your website the actual product that I will receive?
Most certainly, we individually photograph and categorise all of our products so you can be assured that the product photographed you select to purchase is the actual product you will receive. You see, every item has its own individual characteristics, so it is necessary to photograph each and every one of them.

Are your product descriptions accurate?
We make every endeavour to be as accurate as possible in our product descriptions. However, mistakes do occur and we do not guarantee that product descriptions are error-free.

Hope this helps answer your question.

When I place an order am I guaranteed to receive the item I selected?
All items for sale on this website are held in stock unless otherwise noted; however it may occur that two orders for the same product are processed concurrently in which event the first order received will be processed and the other customer will be notified immediately and given the opportunity to select another product from the website notifying us by return email.

We have been fortunate not to have experienced this situation to date.
