What is the order processing time ?

A complete order that is in stock and validated by a credit card before 1 p.m. is processed on the same day.

For a complete order validated by credit card after 1 p.m., the average processing time is between 1 and 3 days.

Orders are prepared from Monday to Friday, as long as all the products in the order are available.

In the event of an item being unavailable, your order will be prepared as soon as we receive it.

Our items are shipped from multiple distribution centers.

Therefore, it is possible that you may receive your order in multiple packages if it contains different items.

If this occurs and you are missing a tracking number, please contact us.

How can I track my order ?

In order to stay updated on the tracking of your orders, you can visit our tracking platform.

You will be asked for an order number, which can be found in the order confirmation email sent to you after placing your order.

Please note that, due to computer processing, tracking information may only be visible a few days after you receive your tracking number

How can I use a promo code on the website ?

If you have a valid promo code, enter it in the 'Promo Code' box during the checkout process and click on 'Apply'.

My tracking number is not working, what should I do ?

If no information is available when you enter your tracking number, it is likely that you will need to wait a few more days for the information to update.

These updates depend on our carrier and may sometimes take several days to appear on our website.

If the problem persists, please contact customer service.

I haven't received any confirmation email after placing my order.

We first recommend checking your spam or junk mail folder to see if the confirmation email was received there.

If you still can't find it, it is likely there was an error in your email address during the ordering process.

In this case, please contact our customer service so that we can assist you.
