By choosing payment by bank transfer, the item - after sending the return email accompanied by the IBAN - is reserved for 48 hours, during which time the customer is asked to send proof of his bank transfer by email. The order will only be validated and shipped after receipt of payment. Beyond 48 hours, without receipt of the proof of transfer email, the order will be considered abandoned by the customer and the item put back on sale on the site.

The customer must ensure that he has communicated the exact information concerning the delivery address when ordering.
Shipments in France are made by Colissimo with tracking, value insurance and signature or by carrier with a Relay Point, value insured, at the customer's choice. The price of the shipping costs will be calculated according to this choice and can be fixed. The amount of the latter is clearly indicated and added during the payment procedure. Delivery will be made in 48h to 72h, but this period is purely informative and cannot be guaranteed.
All shipments outside France to a country not served by Relay Points are made with tracking number and  reception against signature.
