The customer may only make a claim upon delivery if the products delivered do not correspond quantitatively to those ordered, or if the packaging shows signs of severe damage.

All claims must be filed with the carrier, in writing on the delivery slip, at the moment of receipt of the merchandise.

Along with the claim, the customer must also furnish the carrier’s confirmation of the validity of the customer’s claim. No return of the products will be accepted. If it is shown that the above procedure is respected, and thus, it is proven that the claims are a result of severe damage to the package and products, EURL Xavier will, at the customer’s choice, either reimburse the customer the price paid or will make a new delivery of similar products.

If the delivery does not correspond quantitatively to the order, EURL Xavier will only reimburse the difference between the price of the products ordered and those delivered, should there be any missing products.

In the case of an unforseen shortage of stock, EURL Xavier reserves the right to substitute without warning a similar product of greater or equal value and weight for the missing product.

The customer alone is responsible for the choice of products, and for their conservation from their delivery until consumption. The customer should not consume products after the indicated expiration date, or if the products appear to be deteriorated (from the heat, from transportation problems or for any other reason). In no case will EURL Xavier be held liable for any damage resulting from these causes. Likewise, since EURL Xavier is only responsible for respecting current French regulations relative to its products, EURL Xavier cannot be held liable for not respecting the current regulations or legislation in the destination country.
