FAQ

Wholesale Information

How do I qualify for wholesale pricing?

To qualify for wholesale pricing, you must be a licensed business with a state tax id number (resell number). To view wholesale prices on our website, you must first register for an account.


I have submitted the online application for wholesale prices. When can I log in and get wholesale pricing?

If you are creating an account for a Bead Store, you will NOT get immediate access to wholesale pricing. It takes up to 1 business day for your application to process and you will receive a confirmation email once you have been approved. If you have received an email confirmation approving your wholesale status, and you are still having problems, please contact websales@dakotastones.com


Shipping Information

How long will it take for my order to ship?

Your order will ship within 3-5 business days.


Website Issues

I am getting errors while visiting dakotastones.com. What should I do?

We'd like to know if you are experiencing errors while on our site. Contact our web department at websales@dakotastones.com


Strand Length Information

How do the beads come packaged? Are they sold by the bead or by the strand?

Each item is priced per strand. Each strand is 15-16 inches in length unless otherwise specified. For example; if you order a qty of 1, you are ordering one 16 inch strand. Note that if you order a 16 inch strand, it may ship as two 8 inch strands.


Return Policy

What if I want to return an item?

We want you to be as happy with your beads as we are to sell them! Dakota Stones backs their products 100%. If you are not happy with the items you received, we ask that you return them in a reasonable amount of time (within 30 days).

We ask that you send your items back with a copy of the invoice. Returned strands need to be in original strung condition and in the original packaging. If you have any questions or would like to provide us with feedback, please e-mail websales@dakotastones.com 

All refunds will be issued to the original form of payment.

Where is my order?

Our company uses a third party carrier to ship all packages. Once a package leaves our facility, it is in the care of the carrier. Since the carrier is the responsible party, they have more detailed delivery data available.

Our recommendation is that you contact the carrier directly; whether its USPS, UPS or Fedex, and provide your tracking number. They will be able to tell you where the last scan was. Customers who have used this approach have gotten their package delivered. We also recommend talking to your neighbors, if the package was marked as delivered, it is very likely in a neighboring mailbox.

If you need further assistance please contact the customer service team toll-free at 612-298-7371 Mon-Fri from 9a-5p CST or by email at websales@dakotastones.com.

DAY 1

DAY 1

A gemstone in a pear shape is so much more exciting than a Partridge in a pear tree, don't you think?

DAY 2

DAY 2

Two turtle doves? How about two turtle agates instead? We think that is a little more fun.

DAY 3

DAY 3

Three Fre(nch)shwater pearls are here to shine. Was that too far of a reach? Who cares, these pearls are worth it.

DAY 4

DAY 4

Four calling Birds...eye Rhyolite. Yeah, that sounds right. This stone needs some more love, so we're doing just that!

DAY 5

DAY 5

Five golden rings... I mean chains! Both are shiny, but our chains might be better.

DAY 6

DAY 6

Gemstones don't lay eggs. Geese do. But these beads are cooler than geese AND they won't bite your fingers off if you get too close.

DAY 7

DAY 7

Seven swans a swimming? Pretty sure if you threw this tool set in the water, it would sink. But who could know for sure?

DAY 8

DAY 8

Eight (inch) maids (AKA high end gems) a-milking (AKA a-gemming). Got it?

DAY 9

DAY 9

Watching nine agates dancing would be very entertaining. Too bad these strands don't actually dance.

DAY 10

DAY 10

Ten lords-a-leaping... We think kings are better (shhhh, don't tell the lords.)

DAY 11

DAY 11

I'd rather have eleven Pyrites piping... and these gems are piping HOT. Was that too corny?

DAY 12

DAY 12

Diamonds don't drum, but these deals will have you rockin' and rollin'! We saved the best savings for last.
