Gnoce, pronounced "gee-KNOWS", is a jewelry retailer that offers a wide range of accessories, including watches, earrings, charm bracelets, and more. One of the standout features of Gnoce is its regular promotion of "buy 2 get 2 free" on charms, making it an attractive option if you're looking for unique and personalized jewelry. The design is focused mainly on "snake” style bracelets with slide-on charms; though you can find a competitive variety of charm styles, they do come across as being quite similar to other major brands at a fraction of the price (using the "buy 2 get 2” deal).

Search parameters don't narrow the options

Unfortunately, shopping by theme can be a bit confusing at times. For example, in the Vacation and Travel category, you might find an astronaut charm, or a backpack charm called "School Bag” that doesn't seem to fit the theme. With odd options like a Toothbrushing Trio pendant mixed in with actual "Travel” charms, it feels like a struggle to find specific styles that match the theme. Be sure to carefully read product descriptions before making a purchase to avoid any surprises regarding the charm's dimensions. Some charms may be smaller than expected, so it's essential to double-check before making a decision. On top of these smaller struggles, there were pretty limited filters to help you browse, with only price, material, and color for most categories.

Only 5 bracelets to choose from

The selection of bracelets at Gnoce is extremely limited. While there are 172 different bracelets on the site, only 5 of them show up when you limit the category to "charm bracelets”. Many of the styles are "snake” style which is a flexible metal band to slide your charms onto. You can also find one bangle style. All of the bracelets come in silver, with no options for other metals. Gnoce's charm selection is another story altogether. There are 1,364 different charms to choose from, and this doesn't include clasps and beads. The themes at Gnoce are certainly unique, with categories ranging from "Skulls” and "I Love Babies" to "Movies and Anime”, but this might not appeal to everyone.

Prices start at $10.95 per bead

To get an accurate comparison of prices across different retailers, we examined the price ranges for specific items at each place we review. To give you an idea of where you can find the best deal, we checked out the prices for charms, beads, gold charm bracelets, and silver charm bracelets. Unfortunately, Gnoce doesn't have any gold bracelets so that option was excluded from our comparison:

• Charms: $19.95 to $69.95
• Beads: $10.95 to $249.95
• Gold Bracelets: Not available
• Silver Bracelets: $65.95 to $134.95

Returns within 60 days

At Gnoce, the company promises that your happiness is its priority. The company offers a 60-day return and exchange policy. If you're not satisfied with your purchase, you can return or exchange the unused item within 60 days of receipt, as long as it's in its original condition, with no signs of wear or alteration. When making a return or exchange, it's necessary to use tracked shipping methods, as returns without tracking will not be processed.

Dishonesty about business

However, Gnoce's reputation is not entirely spotless. While there are thousands of five-star reviews praising their speed of shipping and jewelry quality, there are also reports of poor customer service and delayed or lost packages. The Better Business Bureau listing for Gnoce gives it an "F" rating due to concerns about transparency regarding ownership, location, and products or services offered. Further investigation reveals that Gnoce presents itself as a US-based company but is actually a Chinese retailer. Many customers have reported difficulty in getting responses from Gnoce's customer service team and have experienced long delays or no response at all when trying to resolve issues with their orders. While customers love the prices and deals offered here, there are concerns about the quality of the items.

May not be trustworthy

Based on our research, we cannot recommend Gnoce as a reliable choice for charm bracelets. The company's mixed reputation, lack of transparency, and poor customer service make it difficult for us to trust their products or services. Given the fact that it's unclear where they source their items and if it's all "Gnoce” brand or a retailer selling other jewelry, we're more than a little leery of Gnoce. Instead, we suggest exploring other retailers that prioritize customer satisfaction and offer high-quality charm bracelets at competitive prices.
