Price:
Prices are indicated in euros (€) all taxes included (TTC) on each item sheet. Items will be invoiced based on the rates in effect at the time the orders are placed.

For delivery within the European Union, prices take into account the VAT applicable on the day of the order.
All prices are non-negotiable by the customer.
The company Appoline reserves the right to modify its prices at any time, it being understood that the products ordered are invoiced at the price in force at the time of registration of the order.

Availability:
Our products are available as long as they are visible on our website and while stocks last. Non-stocked products are only available subject to availability from our suppliers.
The simple fact of adding a product to the basket does not constitute validation of the order. Thus, the product may become unavailable between the time it is added to the basket and the validation of the order by the Customer.
If products are unavailable after you have placed your order, we will inform you by email. The Appoline company then undertakes to cancel the order and fully reimburse the price paid by the customer. The refund will take place within fourteen (14) days following payment by the customer.
Shipping and Delivery:
The Appoline company delivers to Europe.
As the packages are sent from France, no customs fees are expected for deliveries within the European Union.
For orders placed outside a country of the European Union, taxes will be applied. The customer undertakes to pay all taxes due on the importation of products (customs duty, VAT, etc.) applicable depending on the country in which the order is received.
The Appoline company undertakes to deliver the items ordered and paid for to the address chosen by the Customer.
Delivery is free in mainland France from 250€ of purchase outside the furniture and lighting category (total amount of the basket excluding delivery costs).
Below this amount, delivery costs are established according to the weight and volume of the items based on the current rates of the post office and our carriers. The method, time and cost of transport will be specified at the time of the order, depending on the place of delivery, the nature of the products ordered and the transport service chosen by the customer.
The costs and deadlines are indicated to the Customer before the final validation of his order.
The items are delivered to the carrier within 3 working days after confirmation of the order.
Customer Responsibility:
The Customer is informed that it is his responsibility to check the condition of the items delivered upon delivery, in the presence of the delivery person or the collection point staff.

The Customer must provide photos of the anomaly noted and the transport label appearing on the box. After this period, no complaints will be admissible and the products will be considered as delivered in good condition.

The customer is informed that the chosen collection point may refuse to accept the package, in which case the package will be directed to a new collection point or a post office located on the carrier's route. The company Appoline cannot be held responsible for this change in delivery location and the customer cannot request compensation for any inconvenience caused by a change in collection point compared to that defined when ordering.
In the event of indication by the Customer of incomplete or inaccurate delivery information, the company Appoline cannot be held responsible in the event of delay or impossibility of delivery. In the event of return of goods for these reasons, the costs of reshipping the order will remain the responsibility of the Customer.
In the case of delivery by Colissimo against signature, if the Customer is not present when the delivery person passes, a delivery notice will be given to him in his mailbox or sent by SMS or email, and he will have a deadline which can be consulted on the carrier's website to collect it at its post office or from a commercial partner of the carrier. At the end of this period, the package will be returned to the company Appoline and the Customer will have to cover the costs of a new shipment.
