The Customer must check the completeness and conformity of the information which he provides to CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE.

ARTICLE 5 : INFORMATION ON THE PRODUCTS

Characteristics of the products

The information, characteristics, photographs and graphics presented on the sites or in the emails sent by CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE are given only on a purely indicative basis and for the major part are given by the suppliers. In particular, the difference in perception of the forms and the colors between the photographs or graphics presented and the products cannot engage the responsibility of CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE. CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE will make its best efforts to ensure that the photographic representation of the products on the www.charliecrane.fr site is as faithful as possible. It is nevertheless possible that the perception of the products does not correspond completely to the products. The products are sometimes presented in photographs with other products. The description will mention what does or does not form part of the product.

CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE will not accept any responsibility for any indirect loss connected to present facts, in particular, with regards to a trading loss, loss of profit, loss of opportunity, damage or expenses, which may occur because of the purchase of the products. CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE cannot be held responsible for any losses of data, files or of the damage defined in the preceding paragraph.

Availability of the products

CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE is committed to delivering the orders received only within the limit of the stocks of the product available or within the limit of the stocks available from its suppliers. In the absence of availability of a product or products, CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE is committed to informing the Customer as quickly as possible. CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE reserves the right to modify the selection of products according in particular to the constraints imposed by its suppliers. Availability can vary during the same day according to the level of sales. CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE carries out very frequent updates of availabilities, but cannot be held responsible if the stock is no longer the same as that which is indicated. More precise information can be given to the Customer by telephone and email.

The unavailability of a product is mentioned on the product page concerned or in the shopping basket summary. Thus, Products may appear with the mention of delivery times, such as “in stock” or “immediate”, “4 to 8 days”, “1 to 2 week”, “4 to 6 weeks”, “Product not available” etc.

Delivery times indicated in the product page details are estimated times when the product(s) are not available in CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE stocks. They may thus be susceptible to variations for which the Customer will be informed by CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE in his order confirmation in the event of a minor delay or by email in the case of a more prolonged delay.

If CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE cannot obtain an ordered product from its suppliers, the company will notify the customer of the expected delay by email. The Customer in turn can either ask for the cancellation of the order with a refund of payment within 30 days, or the exchange of the product not available for another product. No cancellation penalty will be applied for such an order cancellation. No cancellation compensation (other than the full repayment of the Order) can be demanded, such an unavailability having resulted from a delay in updating this unavailability.

CALIKO / CHARLIE CRANE cannot be held accountable for the non-fulfillment of an agreed contract in the case of the product being out-of-stock or unavailable, of causes beyond control, of disruptions caused by partial or all-out strikes, in particular of the postal services, transport, and communications, flooding and fires.

ARTICLE 6 : PRICES

Prices are indicated in USD and are applicable only on the date of the confirmation of order sent by the Customer.

The prices do not take account of delivery charges, gift wrapping, possible promotional offers and personal reductions, which will be indicated before the final confirmation of the order.

The prices cannot be modified once the Customer has placed his order. In the same way, if one or more taxes or contributions, in particular environmental tax is suddenly created or modified, whether it rises or falls, such a change will be reflected in the selling price of the articles present on the us.charliecraneparis.com site.

Orders for delivery to countries outside the United States of America are subject to possible taxes and customs fees in the destination country. Any costs thereto pertaining are at the consignee’s expense. They are to be paid directly to the transporter upon delivery.

Delays in delivery related to the transporter
