Beautiful Paperclip Chain Necklace with Initial Tags

The necklace took about a month to arrive. Tony was responsive by email to any questions I had.
I love my paperclip chain necklace with initial tag! It’s well made with gold vermeil. I hope it will last without fading. They offer lifetime warranty which is great.

Absolutely no communication from the company until I reached out to Discover to dispute the order. Then I received an email about my purchase. Today I tried to track the purchase and the website claimed I had an incorrect email.

Hi Ann,

We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience and frustration you experienced, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

To give you a brief description of the timeline: you placed your order on November 3, and we began crafting your piece on November 4. We also sent a confirmation receipt to the phone number provided, as our records show that no email address was added to the order form at that time. We only received your email details later on when you reached out to follow up on your order.

Your package was dispatched for shipment on the 20th and successfully delivered on the 26th, which is still within our current production and delivery timeframe.

We understand how concerning it must have felt not receiving updates through email, and we sincerely apologize for that confusion. We’ll review our process again to ensure this doesn’t happen to you—or any customer—moving forward.

If there’s anything more we can do to assist you, please feel free to reach out. We’re here to help.

Thank you.

Beware

I placed my order on September 30th. On October 9th, I received an email saying it was done, and I would receive another email with a tracking #. I waited for two weeks, and the necklace was never shipped.

I reached out to the company and was told it would be shipped soon. Another week goes by, and still no tracking # was sent. I reached out to the company again and requested a full refund as it was now too late to give as a gift. The company never acknowledged my request and shipped the necklace 2 days later.

I will never do business with this company again.

Hi there,

We’re truly sorry for the experience you’ve had, and we completely understand how frustrating and disappointing this must have been—especially since the necklace was meant to be a gift.

For customized pieces, our production timeline is typically 8–10 business days to carefully craft your order, followed by another 10 business days for standard delivery, depending on your location. For express shipping, the transit time is 3–5 business days.

The email you received on October 9th was likely an update showing that your piece had moved forward in the crafting stage, not that it had completed the full production and shipping process. We sincerely apologize if this caused confusion or led to unmet expectations.

We’d really like to look into your specific order to understand what happened and make this right. If you could please email us your order number at hello@customgoods.co
, we’ll investigate immediately.

We appreciate your feedback and are committed to improving. Thank you for giving us the chance to address this.

I love it!

I bought this necklace a couple months ago and I love it so much. It’s so delicate but made very well and durable. I lost my previous one so I’m buying another one!

Do NOT order from this website

Do not order from this website! I placed an order over 3 weeks ago for my girlfriend’s birthday and have yet to even receive an update on it even after sending multiple emails over the past 9 days. The birthday has already passed and I still haven’t received a tracking number for my order. Don’t order from here unless you want to waste money and be disappointed

Absolutely beautiful quality and…

Absolutely beautiful quality and design. I love my rose gold necklace so much. I ordered the necklace with my initials on it. So delicate and feminine. The value is outstanding for the price. Highly recommend it also arrived in the most prettiest packaging. They give you a bag and box with ribbon.

Rough jewelry sideways cross

Upon receiving my sideways cross, I was extremely excited. Unfortunately, it was not advertised in the manner in which it was advertised online. First of all, I ordered it and it took about 20 days to arrive. I know online it says it takes a while for it to arrive, but 20 days is a long time. Secondly, when I received my cross, the arms that we’re not connected to the necklace appeared to be cut off and not smoothed at all. When I wear it, it causes tiny scratches on my neck... I am saddened that I will not be able to wear it anymore. Third, after contacting the company and sending them pictures, their jeweler took a week to respond, which is strange. Upon receiving a response, they informed me that that is how the arms are intended to be matte... However the sides are not matte the look like they were cut with pliers and left as it and they did not smooth out the edges. I never leave any bad reviews, but I feel this one is deserved. I don’t think they actually stand by their Policy  of “ We stand by our industry leading quality and offer a lifetime warranty on all pieces and a satisfaction guarantee “ when I emailed them they said that’s the way it is, the piece of jewelry is totally unsatisfactory but they did not do anything to mediate the issue. Do yourself a favor do not buy.

Hi Jessica,

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We completely understand how disappointing it must have been to wait and then receive a piece that didn’t meet your expectations.

Please note that for custom-made orders, our processing time is typically 8–10 business days (excluding weekends), as each piece is handcrafted to order. Delivery for standard shipping usually takes an additional 7–10 business days, depending on the destination — which may explain the overall 20-day timeframe you experienced.

Regarding the necklace, we sincerely apologize if the finish on your cross did not appear as expected. The “matte” edge style is intentional for this particular design, but we understand how it could appear different in person. We’ll share your feedback with our jeweler team to ensure the edges are consistently smooth and comfortable to wear.

We always aim to stand by our satisfaction guarantee and would still love the chance to make this right for you. Please reach out again at hello@customgoods.co so we can review your order and explore a suitable resolution.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention — we truly value your feedback as it helps us improve both our craftsmanship and service.

Order does not match what was listed on website, overall much lower quality

The custom birthstone pendant did not look anything like what was listed on their website. The chain and bail are completely different than what is shown and it is overall much lower quality than what was advertised. Incredibly disappointed in the piece especially given the price and the time it took for it to be received.

Hi Allison,

We’re truly sorry to hear that your custom birthstone pendant didn’t meet your expectations. We completely understand your disappointment and appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.

Our pieces are handcrafted individually, and at times, slight variations may occur due to the custom design process — but the quality and resemblance to what’s shown on our website should always be consistent. We’d love the chance to make this right for you.

Please reach out to us at hello@customgoods.co with your order number and a photo of the pendant you received, so our team can review and arrange the best possible resolution — whether that’s a replacement or another suitable option.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We value your trust and want to ensure you’re completely satisfied with your Custom Collective experience.

Love this custom necklace

Love this custom necklace! It's so cute and dainty and unique
with it being sideways. Also, since my name is short, I can use my name instead of my
initials! And I love that you can further personalize it with symbols and/or a diamond. The quality looks great as well so
far!

My custom initial necklace is stunning in person, the sparkle and shine are incredible ✨

Best quality jewelry

I’m obsessed with my Custom Collective jewelry piece — I chose my toddler's initial and it’s absolutely perfect! 💕 It feels so personal and meaningful, plus the quality is amazing. I love that I can wear it every day and it instantly makes my outfit feel more special.

Can’t stop wearing this necklace

The custom gold necklace is just what I was looking for, you can personalize it with any word or letter! It’s dainty, layers beautifully, and it’s tarnish free. I can even wear this while working out, which I love.

Hello Jenny,

Please know that your initial order was shipped on time, however we regret that the initial was incorrect. As per our policy, we offered a remake to correct this, which was also delivered to you.

Highly recommend as a thoughtful gift!

Customer service was wonderful! I chose an initial necklace as a gift for my daughter's Sweet 16 Birthday, and I was blown away by its sparkle and shine! The quality of the piece is fantastic, and I love how customizable the pieces are!

Don’t bother

Don’t bother. I’ve waited over a month for my order. No updates, no tracking. Finally heard from them and they “cannot refund”. Go somewhere else.

I absolutely love Custom Collective…

I absolutely love Custom Collective jewelry! Their pieces are so stylish and delicate, beautiful to wear on their own, but also perfect for stacking and layering. What makes them extra special for me is how sentimental they are. I get to carry my daughters’ initials around my neck every day, and that personal touch makes their jewelry truly priceless. Timeless, meaningful, and stunning. Custom Collective will always be a favourite in my collection.
