I am so glad I purchased this band from Capediablo! I was hesitant at first because I don't usually by things online but I thought I would give it a chance. I am so glad I did! The band is beautiful and classy. It seems well made and goes on and off so easily. Many people have commented how pretty is. I can't wait until I receive my next purchase from them!:-)
This site lead me to believe these jewelry pieces were made by Indigenous people. Even asks for a tip when you pay for your purchase to help support them. I placed an order on 23Jul 2022. Six ear rings. I received one pair within a few days. Almost 2 months later, many back & forth emails. Received tracking #s for YUN Express. Shows items coming from China. Arrival dates showing have come and gone still no ear rings. DO NOT send this company your hard earned money. Their website shows shipping 10-25 days. No where does it says these items are being shipped from CHINA

I ordered an elastic band for my smart watch. When it arrived it was beautiful, but one full inch longer than what was in the description on their website. This renders it useless as a smart watch must fit snuggly to work. When I contacted them they, tried to gaslight me and want me to pay an additional $26 shipping and processing to exchange it. If you want a beaded watchband buy it somewhere else.

I ordered the watchband and it was way too small couldn't even get it over my wrist. So I called customer service and they only gave me the option of store credit or a return which would take weeks they said so I ordered another watch and I measured my wrist because the said I could "customize" the sizing this time. The new watch band came and the bag said it was a Large size and now it's way too big. There was also no option for a Regular size when I ordered. Just small and large. Regular would have probably been perfect. These bands are not cheap and I won't be purchasing anymore.

I ordered two bracelets. The quality was great and shipping was on time. But the bracelets smell very strong like mold. After waiting a week to see if smell would subside it didn't. Emailed customer service and was told to wrap it in newspaper and baking soda. Huh? They refused to accept my return or entertain an exchange. Terrible service.
Hi Janita! We apologize for the inconvenience you've faced with the quality and smell of the bracelets. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we're sorry for any disappointment caused. We'll look into this issue and improve our processes to prevent such occurrences in the future. Please connect with our customer service team again with your order details, and we'll work to find a suitable solution for you. Your feedback is appreciated as we strive to provide better service.
I received this from Cape Diablo the other day and absolutely love it, great quality and have already received some compliments. Order number *******
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, Denise! We're thrilled to hear that you're loving your watch strap and that you've already received compliments.
I ordered two watch bands. They were supposed to be stretch but tie instead. I do not need a watch band that has something dangling from it. I am trying to get a refund. They charge a 25% restocking fee. I'm willing to settle for this but they keep trying to offer me other (unwanted) items instead of this pitiful refund. I'm going to dispute the charge with my cc company if they don't send me a return address instead of just arguing with me.

Purchased 30 days ago and still have not received my order. Contacted them THREE times. First two responses stated orders are received within 12-18 days. The newest response they now changed their policy to 25 days! Although it's been 30 days they still are unwilling to help or offer a refund. Awful costumer service. Don't purchase if you need your item in a timely fashion (or at all).Highly disappointed!
Be sure to read the Fine print that states no refund given until after 60 days of not receiving your order!

I bought 2 watchbands for a google pixel watch. On one side, it wouldn't stay on the watch (on both) bands. They sent us 2 more which did the same thing. They want us to pay to return items that don't work. They asked us for a video of putting them on and they agreed that they were a problem. Be very careful, because they don't stand behind their work. I WANT MY MONEY BACK. I'll have to go through my bank.
Tip for consumers:
They gave us the run around.

The ( over $50) watch bands are poorly made and unravel easily and fall apart. When you contact customer service you'll be told this is normal wear and tear even though your piece is less than 4 months old. Terrible customer service!

In January I ordered 3 pairs of earrings and a necklace...they looked nothing like what was depicted - not the colors, not the quality. They are poorly put together. When you try to resolve the issue they will drag it on for months. Don't wait for them to resolve it - go straight to your charge card company and put it in dispute...It is just now, April, getting resolved. PS expect to pay to ship it back
Tip for consumers:
Be prepared for them to argue, to try to have you order more junk, to give you the run around.

I sent everything back. The quality was a joke and the earrings that claimed to be jasper stone were more like a light weight plastic.

I ordered two watchbands following their instructions for measuring your wrist for sizing. One fits fine. The other is so large it does not stay on my wrist.
Trying to return has been a nightmare. They keep offering account credits and claim they will charge me for the "postage and handling" of the original order. But I was not charged postage! And they telling me that it probably fits fine. It is an inch bigger than the one that fits fine.
I want nothing to do with this company of idiots!

Please contact our customer support again, providing details about your order, and we'll work to ensure a satisfactory resolution. Your satisfaction means a lot to us.
They asked me for all the plastic, tape and all the package when I request return, one is not even opened, the one I tried on was extremely big on my wrist, my iWatch doesn't touch my skin to its job recording my vitals, their products are not cheap, they don't want to refund, exchange or return. I regret buying from this business.
Tip for consumers:
I wish I searched for customers support before ordering from this business, there are many other companies who would be more considering helping customers when something doesn’t fit , this is online purchase risk are customers won’t be happy when they receive the products. They should be helpful and open to returns . So regret

I loved the cause of supporting "working artisan moms" through my purchases. But this is a US based company and these "moms" are in China. Do the math, Their marketing is highly questionable

I received apple watch band. It was suppose to have copper as the main color, it was a brassy gold. Before they would even consider a return they wanted a picture of band. I sent that. I had previously sent picture to prove color but did again. They also wanted pictures of shipping material with skew and packaging material I did not have shipping material with skew but sent copy of order with tracking. None of this is in their return policy. They had to have this info before they would send address for return. I was given option for exchange, because after all the charges I would receive half the value. I decided on exchange. I notified them of band that I wanted sent the required info as stated above waited a week or so with no response. I emailed that I still had not received address for return and a few days later I received it. Along with address they stated if I wanted the replacement promptly I would have to pay $25.
Lousy customer service. If you are smart. Stay away, do not buy any of their products in my opinion.
Tip for consumers:
I WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM THEM AGAIN. I saw a picture of a band that could be a twin of one of theirs for $5.99. Another site had very similar bands for $29.99 BAD SHOPPING!!!
With taxes etc came to $56.66.

I have not returned as of yet, will see what replacement band is like. If I don’t like it etc, they probably will say it is final I will and I cannot return. I think.

I bought a watchband from this company, Cape Diablo. I followed the sizing directions on their website. When it arrived it did not fit my iwatch. I asked for a return and am getting the run around. They only make offers for other things. Over and over and over. They say
It's not difficult for us to allow returns and refunds. And then do not help. This was a big purchase for me.
I am retired and living on social security. No other company is so difficult with returning something you paid for and cannot use. Buyer beware.

Paid extra for expedited shipping (3-6 day) and come to find out these products are being shipped from China. My order took much much longer than 3-6 days! It's not day 6 and my package is still in China.
Not smart to take peoples money for 3-6 day shipping to only ship from China and it takes weeks to arrive. Might want to add somewhere on your site that these orders can/will be shipped from China and paying extra for 3-6 day shipping will only be a waste of your money.
Would have bought something else, somewhere else if I knew this product was getting shipped from China.

I purchased 3 watch bands for approx. $150, all were too small for my wrist. They could fit a child. The company said we would give you a $30 credit and keep the baby watch bands. I responded that I did not want them as they were too small and didn't have anyone to give them to. The company said I could only return the watch bands if I kept the original packaging, which was like a dirty envelope that I tossed. Ridiculous. I went back and forth several times and finally submitted it to the BBB. If you want to buy from this company, I suggest you do it through Amazon, as Amazon protects the buyers, not the sellers.

Hello Heather! We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the sizing issue with the watch bands and the complications in resolving it. We understand your frustration and sincerely regret any disappointment caused. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we are committed to finding a solution that suits your needs.
Please provide your order details by emailing support@capediablo.com, and we will promptly initiate the necessary steps to address this matter. We appreciate your feedback, and your insights are invaluable as we continually work to enhance our customer experience.
I ordered two items: a beaded elasticized Apple Watch band, and a standard amethyst Apple Watch band. It took some time to receive as they come from China.
The elastic stretchy beaded band (I have rather small wrists but I ordered the larger option to be safe) was sooo small. I wore it for one day only and it left painful indents on my wrist and left the top of my wrist bruised.
The second amethyst watch band is tightened by pulling on two strings. The material of the thread is thick and coarse, and feels scratchy like burlap. It also was uncomfortable to wear.
I immediately emailed customer service asking for a solution. They took days to respond and when they did, they advised that the items were non refundable. I was quite surprised by this policy. My order totaled $92!
After going back and forth with them for a few weeks, the most they would offer was $20 credit on their website. I find this to be soo unthical, basically selling crap products and refusing to refund even partially.
I offered to send back the items for even partial refund but the address is in China and the cost of the return postage exceeds the cost of the items!
So disappointed. I would not recommend doing business with this company to anybody. Buyer beware.
