Orders or products are shipped by our UPS carrier. The carrier will call you to make an appointment for door-to-door delivery. In addition, for deliveries outside of France, the customer agrees to pay all taxes due on the import of products, customs duties, value added tax, and any other taxes due under the laws of the country where the order is received. For reasons of availability, an order can be delivered in several times to the Customer.

If the Customer wishes to have 2 delivery places, he must place 2 orders. The delivery address (which may be different from the billing address) must be accurate and include all the details necessary for proper delivery. If the delay exceeds 30 days following the day of transmission of the order, a cancellation as well as the refund of the payment will be carried out, except if the customer wishes to maintain his order. The delivery is made to the address indicated by the customer at the time of his order. The delivery can only be made if the buyer is up to date with his obligations towards the seller. Shape.Paris cannot be held responsible for delays in delivery in cases of force majeure: war, disasters, administrative decisions, transport stoppages, natural disasters, war, riots, fire, strikes, accidents and the impossibility of being supplied making delivery impossible. For delivery by appointment, the Customer must clearly indicate a fixed and/or cell phone number at which he/she can be easily reached. For a delivery of bulky material, it is the Customer's responsibility to ensure the accessibility of the delivery location and to inform Shape.Paris or the carrier when making the appointment. If the delivery could not be made for accessibility reasons, Shape.Paris shall not be held responsible. An error in the delivery address, in the place of delivery, in the accessibility of the place, in the telephone number for making the appointment, in the absence of the Customer at the scheduled appointment, or any other problem leading to the need to make a new delivery may be subject to invoicing at the actual cost of the new delivery, the payment of these additional costs alone allowing the new delivery. The delivery times are given as an indication only and are not rigorous or guaranteed in particular during certain periods of strong activities, such as the periods of sales.
The information given by the Customer when placing an order is the responsibility of the Customer. In the event of an error in the recipient's delivery details, Shape.Paris cannot be held responsible for the impossibility of delivering the product. If a package is returned to us for a reason such as "unclaimed" or "does not live at the address indicated", we will reship your package after payment of the corresponding shipping costs. If you do not pay these reshipment fees, or if you still do not claim the package that has been returned to you after payment of these fees and this package is returned to us a second time by the carrier, it will be stored in our warehouses for six (6) months. At the end of this period, we reserve the right to destroy the items stored in this way, without notice or formal notice. This destruction does not give any right to refund, exchange or compensation.
7. Right of withdrawal
In accordance with the legislation on distance selling, the Customer has a period of 14 days from receipt to return the product that does not suit him. Except in the case where the return is the result of an error on our part, the cost of return will be charged to the customer. This right of return will be accepted only for complete products, in their original condition (packaging, accessories ...) with a copy of the purchase invoice. Items returned incomplete, damaged or soiled by the Customer will not be accepted. The return of the parcel remains under the responsibility of the Customer until it is received in our warehouse. We therefore invite you to use a traceable shipping service or to subscribe to a shipping insurance. We decline all responsibility in case of loss or theft of the package during its return. To initiate the return process, please send your request to contact@shape.paris. If your return is accepted, we will provide you with the address where to return your package. All products returned to us without prior request will not be accepted.
Shape.Paris undertakes to refund the Customer within 30 days or less after receipt of the products by him.

However, the buyer can renounce to the refund and opt for the exchange of the good. In case of exchange, we invite you to place your order on our Website and to send back the original product so that we can proceed to its refund.
Subject to the right of withdrawal, no return of products will be accepted by Shape.Paris due to a difference in the color of the products. Likewise, no return will be accepted for a difference in color shade between those displayed on the Website and those of the actual products. The right of withdrawal between professionals is applicable only when the three conditions of Article L121-16-1 of the Consumer Code are met.

However, in case of fraudulent use of his credit card, the Customer is invited, as soon as this use is noticed, to contact Shape.Paris Customer Service.
9. Transportation Risks
Shape.Paris reminds that it is the Customer's responsibility to inspect his packages upon receipt. If, upon delivery, the external aspect of the package is not perfect, the Customer or the receiver of the products will proceed to open the package in the presence of the carrier in order to check the condition of the products. In case of damage resulting from transport, the Customer will have to refuse the damaged products and indicate "refusal for damage" on the return form. If the deliveryman does not wish to wait for the control of the parcel(s), please stipulate on the delivery note "The driver did not want to wait for the opening of the parcel for control". In the case where such mentions would not have been made on the delivery slip presented to the Customer by the carrier, no claim related to the state of the package(s) could be accepted a posteriori by Shape.Paris. Any claim must be sent by e-mail or registered mail to Shape.Paris within 72 hours to Agencify - 117 avenue Victor Hugo - 92100 Boulogne.
In the absence of precise and motivated observations, the goods are deemed to have been accepted by the Customer and may not be contested with regard to their delivery. Shape.Paris shall not be held responsible for the condition of the products.
