Company Overview:

Jomashop is a leading high-end accessories online store. It specializes in luxury watches such as Rolex, Breitling and Cartier. It is uniquely differentiated as the store with the largest variety of watch models available online. Jomashop has been in business for 29 years but began its online business only in 2000. Apart from watches the website is also known for its luxury pens, handbags, and crystal art pieces. The company is currently managed successfully by Osher Karnowsky. In 2015 the company made news by adopting automated software for online protection against fraudulent transactions. This move has helped the company reduce customer verification times from 2-3 days down to 2-3 hours. It also allowed the company to attract international sales more aggressively and resulted in higher revenue figures in recent years.

Customer Service

When considering the purchase of an expensive product, a potential customer expects the highest standards of customer service. At Jomashop all customer service channels are available to the convenience of customers. These include: detailed ticketing system, email, 1-800 phone number and a live chat with a store rep. The site’s weakest point however, is their return policy. Despite the high price tag paid by an average consumer the return time frame is limited to 30 Days from the day of shipment. Moreover, the customer has only 5 days to notify the company of a defective product. When facing a product related problem a customer has the option of choosing to process an exchange or a refund. In case of a refund, shipping & handling costs are not refundable and restocking fee may apply if the product is not returned in the same condition or missing any packing materials.While researching the company’s customer reviews online we found that Jomashop maintains nearly perfect score in every category. It holds BBB ratings of A+ and a 9.1/10 on trustpilot.com. Overall we were satisfied by the level of customer service provided by Jomashop though we believe the company should improve its return policy.

Shopping Experience

In this section we review the company’s site from the user’s perspective. Navigating the site was a breeze with many different options for locating the exact product of interest. You may use the site’s smart search, shop by brand or simply go through the site’s categories themselves. Every one of these options was user-friendly and allowed for easy access of the product.
