Not told a shop didn't give refunds, but my item doesn't fit.

My engagement ring was the first ring I'd ever worn. I tried on what I thought was the right size, and the shop explained about it being summer and my hands being warm, so although it slipped on nicely now, it would be rather loose when my hands were cold, especially in winter.
Perhaps it is you making assumptions?0 -

The OP tried it on the shop and it fitted at the time - surely they are best placed to know when a ring is on their finger whether it feels loose or not?It was the last ring left, and they decided to take a chance. That isn’t the shop fault.
Or are Warren James stores just run by minimum wage paid staff who have no knowledge of their products?!?!?!
Is it run by minimum wage staff? No, but the people who work in the shop predominately are. However it seems thats a good thing as they didn't suggest to size up for summer.0 -
Broadly speaking a ring need to be a loose fit if hands are cold, but not so loose that it will slide straight over a knuckle without any resistance. My hands swell in hot weather to the extent that I have to take my rings off.0

I wear a plastic ring size adjuster in winter and take it off in the summer as my fingers seem to swell a lot with the heat.1
