Veronique De Suerte Photography informs its Customers that these delivery times do not include weekends and public holidays.
DELIVERY TIMES
Delivery times depend on the delivery country and specified during the order process.
If it happens that initial delivery times cannot be met, a new delivery time will then be communicated to the Customer, according to the information available to Veronique De Suerte Photography. In this case, an option for the cancellation of the order, with a refund or a credit, will be also made to the Customer.

In the event of non-withdrawal within the time limits allowed by the transporter, the products will be returned to Veronique De Suerte Photography which reserves the right to refund the price of the products, with transport costs being at the charge of the Customer.
PACKAGING
The products are packaged so as to respect the standards of transport in force, and to ensure an optimal protection of the products during their delivery. It is requested from the Customer to respect these same standards in the case of a product being returned because of after-sales service or for reasons of suitability. Any damage noted to a product arising from the product not being repackaged properly may lead to no refund in the event of the impossibility of resale in its state or in the event of a technical problem indicated having been worsened.
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CUSTOMER TO CHECK PARCELS UPON RECEPTION
Veronique De Suerte Photography reminds customers that it is the responsibility of the Customer to inspect his parcels upon reception in the presence of the deliveryman and to notify the transporter as well as Veronique De Suerte Photography of any anomaly (bumps, damage to the parcel, delivery date not conforming to normal times of the parcel delivery…) within two working days. In the case where such elements are not noted on the delivery slip presented to the Customer by the transporter, no complaint related to the state of the parcel can be accepted a posteriori by Veronique De Suerte Photography.
DELAYS IN DELIVERY RELATED TO THE TRANSPORTER
In the case of a delay in delivery compared to the times announced by the transporters, the Customer must contact Veronique De Suerte Photography Customer Services by telephone or email in order to create a file of contention or start an investigation to carry out a search for the parcel. It can happen that parcels are mislaid by transporters.
If the parcel is found, it will be sent immediately to the residence of the Customer. In the event that the parcel is not found, the Customer will be able to ask that the same product be sent again (subject to availability), at Veronique De Suerte Photography's expense, or be refunded the amount paid. If one or more ordered products are not available at that moment, Veronique De Suerte Photography will refund the amount paid for the products concerned lost by the transporter.
DAMAGED PARCELS
The Customer must inspect the state of the parcel in the presence of the transporter and note any reserves necessary on the delivery slip in the event of partial or total deterioration. In the absence of noting such points, the product is considered to be accepted by the Customer and cannot be the subject of any dispute concerning its delivery. The Customer must notify Veronique De Suerte Photography by email so that Veronique De Suerte Photography can take the necessary measures as quickly as possible.
