We will put a RESERVE on an item for 7 days maximum with a non refundable 20% deposit . If you need a longer payment time, we also have a LAYAWAY plan for items over $80 should you need that option. We offer a 45 days term with a minimum 25% non refundable deposit. To purchase via layaway, click to buy the item and upon checkout, click money order as the payment option. We will then invoice you through Paypal for the 25% non refundable deposit which is due within 24 hours and set up further payments with you. By completing the checkout process, you agree to all the terms associated with the layaway plan which includes completing payments in 45 days. Failure to complete all payments or backing out on the layaway will result in loss of your initial deposit. No returns or exchanges on layaway items.

We gladly combine shipping on multiple items purchased. All purchases are shipped within three days of payment barring weekends and holidays. Purchases are mailed by the French postal service.
Our items are sent free shipping. Up to $50 they are shipped as any ordinary mail. From $50 up to $150 items are sent registered though without being insured, unless you want to take an insurance which will have to be determined. Over $150 items are automatically insured. WE WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IN CASE OF LOSS. All packages are wrapped securely, boxed or under secured envelop and sent with a tracking number. I will notify you a tracking number once your purchase is shipped. As well contact me right away if there is a problem with your order. In case of loss or theft which might happen with international shipments, fortunately hardly ever, I will have to wait for the french postal service confirmation, which might take one or two month, that indeed loss occured in order to refund a payment. The refund will amount as per above to $200 if any extra insurance has not been subscribed to. As well we will refund the shipping on the minimum rate base.
