1. THE SOLIST SITE

The Solist is the leading online marketplace providing you with access to display-model jewelry, watches and accessories.

You are responsible for obtaining access to the Site and that access may involve third-party fees (including ISP, data usage or airtime charges). Additionally, you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access the Site.


2. LICENSE AND SITE ACCESS

The Solist grants you a limited license to access the Site for personal use. This license does not include any downloading or copying of account information for the benefit of another vendor or any other third party; caching, unauthorized hypertext links to the Site and the framing of any Content (defined below) available through the Site, uploading, posting, or transmitting any content that you do not have a right to make available (including intellectual property belonging to another party); uploading, posting, or transmitting any material that contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment; any action that imposes or may impose (in The Solist's sole discretion) an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on The Solist’s infrastructure; or any use of data mining, robots or similar data gathering and extraction tools. You may not bypass any measures used by The Solist to prevent or restrict access to the Site. Any unauthorized use by you shall terminate the permission or license granted to you by The Solist.


3. MEMBERSHIP ELIGIBILITY AND REPRESENTATIONS

5. THE PRODUCTS; SHIPPING; RETURN POLICY

Product Availability And Pricing

All products that The Solist sells through the Site (the “Products”) are provided by third parties and are not manufactured or supplied by The Solist. You acknowledge and agree that while some Products may be new Products, others will be shop-used or pre-owned Products.

If you are interested in a Product that is currently on back order or listed but unavailable, email The Solist at info@thesolist.com or call The Solist at (201) 399-7339 and The Solist can tell you when (if ever) the Product will be back in stock. Sometimes with the volume of orders The Solist will receive, a Product may go out of stock before The Solist is able to post a notification on the Site. If this happens after you purchased that Product, The Solist will contact you directly to discuss possible options.


Product prices may be inaccurately displayed on the Site due to system or typographical errors. While The Solist makes every attempt to avoid these errors, they may occur. The Solist reserves the right to correct any and all errors when they do occur, and The Solist does not honor inaccurate or erroneous prices. If you purchase a Product with a listed price that is lower than its actual price, The Solist will, at The Solist’s discretion, either contact you to notify you of the correct price before shipping the Product or cancel the order and notify you of such cancellation. If the order has been shipped, you agree to either return the Product or pay the difference between the actual and charged prices. The Solist’s prices are also subject to change without notice. The Solist apologizes for any inconvenience that this may cause.


Product Descriptions

The Solist makes every attempt to ensure that The Solist’s online catalog is as accurate and complete as possible. To give you the opportunity to view the Products in great detail, some Products may appear larger or smaller than their actual size in The Solist’s photographs; and since every computer monitor is set differently, color and size may vary slightly.

The Solist’s objective is to provide you with as much information and detail about your prospective purchase as possible so you can get the details of a particular item and make an informed purchasing decision. In compliance with industry standards, The Solist states that carat total weight on all purchases may vary 0.05 carats from stated weight.


Comparison Purchasing

To keep The Solist’s prices low, The Solist does not allow comparison purchasing. Comparison purchasing is the act of buying several items with the intent of keeping the one you like best and returning the remainder. This causes undue restocking and inventory overhead and can be very costly.


Billing Information

Products purchased by you will be shipped in accordance with The Solist’s then current shipping policy, a current version of which can be viewed here: https://www.shopworn.com/shipping.


Return Policy

You may return Products only in accordance with The Solist’s then current Return Policy, a current version of which can be viewed here: https://www.thesolist.com/returns.

18.MOBILE TERMS OF SERVICE

Last updated: July 28, 2025

The The Solist mobile message service (the "Service") is operated by The Solist (“The Solist”, “we”, or “us”). Your use of the Service constitutes your agreement to these terms and conditions (“Mobile Terms”). We may modify or cancel the Service or any of its features without notice. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may also modify these Mobile Terms at any time and your continued use of the Service following the effective date of any such changes shall constitute your acceptance of such changes.

By consenting to The Solist’s SMS/text messaging service, you agree to receive recurring SMS/text messages from and on behalf of The Solist through your wireless provider to the mobile number you provided, even if your mobile number is registered on any state or federal Do Not Call list. Text messages may be sent using an automatic telephone dialing system or other technology. Service-related messages may include updates, alerts, and information (e.g., order updates, account alerts, etc.). Promotional messages may include promotions, specials, abandoned carts, discounts, sales, Coupons, Giveaways, product launches, and other marketing offers (e.g., cart reminders).

You understand that you do not have to sign up for this program in order to make any purchases, and your consent is not a condition of any purchase with The Solist. Your participation in this program is completely voluntary.

We do not charge for the Service, but you are responsible for all charges and fees associated with text messaging imposed by your wireless provider. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Check your mobile plan and contact your wireless provider for details. You are solely responsible for all charges related to SMS/text messages, including charges from your wireless provider.

You may opt-out of the Service at any time. Text the single keyword command STOP to 56053 or click the unsubscribe link (where available) in any text message to cancel. You'll receive a one-time opt-out confirmation text message. No further messages will be sent to your mobile device, unless initiated by you. If you have subscribed to other The Solist mobile message programs and wish to cancel, except where applicable law requires otherwise, you will need to opt out separately from those programs by following the instructions provided in their respective mobile terms.

For Service support or assistance, text HELP to 56053 or email concierge@thesolist.com.

We may change any short code or telephone number we use to operate the Service at any time and will notify you of these changes. You acknowledge that any messages, including any STOP or HELP requests, you send to a short code or telephone number we have changed may not be received and we will not be responsible for honoring requests made in such messages.

The wireless carriers supported by the Service are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. You agree to provide us with a valid mobile number. If you get a new mobile number, you will need to sign up for the program with your new number.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that we will not be liable for failed, delayed, or misdirected delivery of any information sent through the Service, any errors in such information, and/or any action you may or may not take in reliance on the information or Service.

We respect your right to privacy. To see how we collect and use your personal information, please see our Privacy Notice.

Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

Please read this carefully.  It affects your rights. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of THE SOLIST’s services will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than court.


This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted, and expressly includes claims brought under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. § 227 et seq., or any other statute, regulation, or legal or equitable theory.  You and THE SOLIST hereby agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. 1, et seq. (“FAA”) applies to this agreement to arbitrate, and governs all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.  Unless you and we agree otherwise in writing, arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association’s Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of filing of the arbitration (the “AAA’s Rules”).  However, just as a court would, the arbitrator or arbitrators must honor the terms and limitations in this Agreement, and can award damages and relief (including any attorneys’ fees) authorized by law and/or the AAA’s Rules.  The arbitration decision and award is final and binding, with some exceptions under the FAA, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND THE SOLIST ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE PROCEEDING.


THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT ALLOW FOR CLASS ARBITRATIONS EVEN IF THE PROCEDURES OR RULES OF THE AAA WOULD.  RATHER, YOU AND WE ARE ONLY ENTITLED TO PURSUE ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL, BILATERAL BASIS.  FURTHER, AND UNLESS YOU AND THE SOLIST AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR(S) MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIMS WITH ANY OTHER PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR COLLECTIVE PROCEEDING.

You and THE SOLIST are each responsible for our respective costs relating to counsel, experts, and witnesses, as well as any other costs relating to the arbitration. THE SOLIST, however, will pay for the arbitration administrative or filing fees, including the arbitrator and/or other AAA case management fees, for any claim seeking $75,000 or less, unless the claim is determined by the arbitrator to be frivolous.  Otherwise, the AAA’s Rules regarding costs and payment apply.

This agreement to arbitrate does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.


If any term of this Section (Arbitration and Class Action Waiver) is to any extent illegal, otherwise invalid, or incapable of being enforced, such term shall be excluded to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability; all other terms hereof shall remain in full force and effect; and, to the extent permitted and possible, the invalid or unenforceable term shall be deemed replaced by a term that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable term.  If application of this Severability provision should materially and adversely affect the economic substance of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Party adversely impacted shall be entitled to compensation for such adverse impact, provided the reason for the invalidity or unenforceability of a term is not due to serious misconduct by the Party seeking such compensation.
