On receipt of the Product(s) ordered, the Buyer must check the conformity of these Products. Any anomaly concerning the delivery (missing or broken product, etc.) must be indicated by the Buyer on the receipt presented to him by the carrier when the parcel is handed over and must imperatively be notified, on the day of receipt or at the latest on the first working day following receipt, on the “Contact Us” Site.

If the Buyer does not agree, he/she may, if necessary, be reimbursed within thirty (30) days of payment of the sum paid.
