FAQ - Chunky Junk
WHAT IS A TRANSPARENT COMPANY?
A transparent company is one that gives an open breakdown of the pricing structure. At Chunky Junk we believe we need to be open and honest in our pricing so that everyone who purchases jewelry from us can partner with the causes we support.
In general our prices break down as follows:
25% - the amount we have invested in the piece of jewelry (our cost plus importing to the US)
25% - business related expenses*
25% - commission/salary*
25% - No Longer Orphans
Business related expenses - marketing, internet, credit card fees, and other related expenses.
Commissions are paid to some of our ambassadors. We have partnered with ambassadors throughout the country to increase our brand awareness, and when we identify at risk women we ask them to come on as an ambassador and provide them with extra income via commissions. Additionally we hire at risk women in India to help with our business there.
WHERE DO YOU SHIP?
We ship to US Postal address. We are not yet set up to ship internationally.
WHY DO YOU CHARGE SHIPPING?
For orders under $20 we charge a flat rate shipping of $7.00. This help to cover expenses related to shipping. We have decided to provide free shipping for orders over $20 because this is our break even point.
