Certain details are determined by Buyer selections/specifications.
* Longer lengths, additional configurations and higher quantities can usually be added by request. If the "variation" or quantity you need is not selectable, please contact me with the details.
Chain Length
The Chain Length selected at the time of purchase includes
only the actual chain links
.
Any selected Clasps, Split Rings, Charms, etc. will add to the total end-to-end length of the completed item
Chain Lengths are APPROXIMATE
only whole links can be included
the larger the links, the more the actual length can vary from the selected length
Approximate Number of Links for each length option are as follows:
0.5 inches = 3 links
1 inch = 5 links
1.5 inches = 8 links
2 inches = 10 links
2.5 inches = 12 links
3 inches = 15 links
3.5 inches = 17 links
4 inches = 20 links
6 inches = 30 links
The example use noted for each length is only one possibility; please select the length you need, regardless of whether the example use applies to you
Necklace and Choker Extenders are usually 2 to 4 inches
Bracelet or Anklet Extenders are usually 1.5 inches or less (unless additional length is needed to make it fit)
Safety Chains should be long enough that they do not interfere with the main clasp, but short enough that it will keep the bracelet from slipping off your wrist if the main clasp opens.

FAQ's and additional information follow
FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)...
Q: Is "Gold Finished" the same thing as "Gold-Plated"?
A: No. "Gold-Plated" means that the thin coating is real Gold (with a karat rating). "Gold Finished" means that the coating is gold in color, but is NOT real gold (or is unknown).
Q: I need a different color or chain thickness; do you have other Extender Chain options available?
A: YES! I have several different options available (and more are "coming soon"!). You can find all my Extender Chain listings in my
Clasp Converters and Extenders
eBay store category.
Q: How do I order the Lobster Clasp size I want if it cannot be selected from the option menu?
A: The "12 x 6mm" Lobster Clasp size is the standard size I use for most of my jewelry items. All other sizes are currently available in limited quantities, so I cannot keep every possible variation available all the time; however, I can always adjust the variations and quantities listed by request. If the Lobster Clasp size you want is not currently selectable (or the combination you want does not have a high enough quantity listed), please contact me with the details so I can make it selectable. (Please make sure to specify the quantity you need and ALL the options you will be selecting, as each variation is considered a unique item and must be added to the listing separately.) The larger the Lobster Clasp, the higher the price.
Q: How do I order one of the charms you describe if it cannot be selected from the option menu?
A: For several reasons, many of the available charms/combinations are only listed by request. If the charm you want is not currently selectable (or the combination you want does not have a high enough quantity listed), please contact me with the details so I can make it selectable. (Please make sure to specify the quantity you need and ALL the options you will be selecting, as each variation is considered a unique item and must be added to the listing separately.)
Q: The End #1/End #2/Length Combination I want cannot be selected from the option menus (or there aren't enough available). Can I order it (or a higher quantity)?
A: In most cases, YES. If the "variation" (combination of options) you want is not currently selectable (or does not have a high enough quantity listed), please contact me with the details so I can make it available for you, if it is something I can do. (Please make sure to specify the quantity you need and ALL the options you will be selecting, as each variation is considered a unique item and must be added to the listing separately.) PLEASE NOTE: This chain style is available only in limited quantities, so very large quantities may not always be possible.
Q: Why do you use Split Rings instead of standard Jump Rings?
A: Split Rings -- also called "double rings" -- work like tiny key rings, so they do not pull open the way Jump Rings can. A Jump Ring is a single ring that has been cut, so that it can be used to join two components together; this type of connection can be broken by applying enough force to the Jump Ring that it pulls open. It is much harder to pull open a Split Ring. (
The
Jewelry Findings
Page in my eBay store has more information about jewelry components.)
Q: How much will a Lobster Clasp add to the total length of the Extender Chain?
A: One "12 x 6mm" Lobster Clasp added to one end of the chain will add approximately 0.5 inch to the total end-to-end length. (For larger sizes, the length added is as follows: 0.7 inch for "14 x 7mm"; 0.77 inch for "17 x 9mm"; 1.0 inch for "22 x 12mm")
Q: How accurate are your photos? And where do you get them?
A: All my photos are of actual sample items or components, and are as representative of what will be received as possible. Due to differences between display types, display settings, dye lots and other factors, actual color(s) may vary from what you see on your screen. Unless otherwise noted, all photos were taken by me.
Q: Where can I find more information about this and related items?
A: The
Jewelry Findings
Page in my eBay store has general information regarding the metal components I use for my items, including comparison photos that may not be available in individual listings.
Shipping Notes for Jewelry Items...
All U.S. shipping options include a corrugated cardboard box for maximum protection in transit.
For orders shipping outside the U.S.: the "First Class" option ships in a corrugated cardboard box; the lower cost "Standard" option ships in a Bubble Mailer. (USPS First Class International is the actual shipping method for both options.)
Additional jewelry items can be added to your order with no additional shipping charge! (Combined shipping discounts are automatically applied by the eBay system during checkout, and only apply to orders that are paid for with a single combined payment.)
A few other things you should know...
Please ask any questions you have prior to purchasing.
Imagize Your World
is completely owner operated, so your answers will always come "straight from the top"!
I strive to respond to inquiries within 1 business day (please note this excludes weekends, holidays and when my eBay store is "on vacation").
If the "variation" (combination of options) you would like is not currently selectable (or does not have a high enough "available quantity" listed), please contact me with the details so I can adjust the listing for you (if what you want is possible). As the eBay system handles each "variation" as a unique item, I will need the full set of specifications to properly assist you.
Color, material, size and other specifications for individual components (cord, ribbon, t-shirts, ink, chain, etc.) are quoted from the original manufacturer/distributor/artisan when available; all measurements are approximate; color names are subjective and can vary between manufacturers and materials.
Color variance between display types/settings, dye lots, etc. is normal, and not considered an error or defect.
Unless otherwise explicitly stated for a specific item, jewelry is NOT waterproof, and should be removed before swimming, bathing, etc.
Metal components are
not
designated "nickel-safe" by their manufacturers, so no assumptions can be made.
My
combined shipping discounts
are automatically applied by eBay's checkout system, when all items are paid for with a single combined payment; please use "add to cart" for the best results.
Jewelry orders ship in a corrugated cardboard box for maximum protection in transit, for all shipping options
except
"Standard International" (which requires the package to be thin and flexible).
Please note that upgrading to a faster shipping option may (but is not guaranteed to) result in a shorter
transit
time; however, due to the nature of custom and made-to-order items, the handling time will not change.
The shipping address printed on the label is automatically imported from the eBay/PayPal transaction details; changes cannot be made after payment, so if you recently moved, are sending a gift, or intend to use a work, college or other alternate address, please make all necessary adjustments before or during eBay's checkout process.
If this is a gift being shipped directly to the intended recipient in the U.S., I can eliminate pricing information from the packing slip and/or include a personal message by request. (Orders shipping outside the U.S. require accurate item prices, and cannot include a personal message. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.)
Custom, Personalized, Made-to-Order and Cut-to-Order items are impossible to return in/to their original/unused condition, and can therefore not be refunded or exchanged (nor completely cancelled once production/cutting/processing has begun). If you receive an incorrect, defective or damaged item, please
save the mailer and all packing materials, and contact me immediately
for help (exchanging or replacing a wrong/defective/damaged item for a new/correct one is completely separate from my "no returns" policy).
It is normal for Custom-Printed and Handmade items, and certain components, to have slight imperfections and/or differences between "identical" items; this is
not considered an error or defect.
Since this item will be Custom-Made-to-Order, additional COMMUNICATION may be needed to ensure you receive exactly what you intended to purchase. I recommend that you be available via eBay messages while your order is being processed, to avoid delays and/or disappointment.
This item comes from a
non-smoking
and
no-pet
environment!
I strive to provide accurate and complete information for my items, so if a detail is missing, or anything in this listing appears unclear, misleading or wrong, please let me know.
Common sense, mutual courtesy and honest two-way communication are essential parts of every transaction. Together we can make every purchase a great experience!
