Terms & Conditions

The present terms aim to define the sales conditions between Oxygenee (Deutschland) Ltd. (hereafter referred to as “We”, or “Us”) and any person visiting or making a purchase via www.AbsintheClassics.com website (hereafter referred to as “You”), from the order to the servicing, payment and delivery.

The general sales terms are made available to all internet users on the www.AbsintheClassics.com website (hereafter referred to as the “Site”). These general sales terms may be modified at anytime, but the terms applicable are those enforced on the site on the date your order is placed.

You acknowledge having had prior notification of the conditions applicable to the sale as defined here-below; from that moment, You agree to abide by them entirely.

All our details are accessible on every webpage of the Site under “Contact-Us”. Any advice, written exchange or claim will be made by mail or by e-mail to the addresses indicated.

Excessive drinking is dangerous for the health; alcoholic beverages should be consumed with moderation.
You recognise that the sale of alcoholic beverages to minors is forbidden, and You undertake not to place an order for this type of product, if You do not have the legal age authorised to do so in your country of residence. We could in no way see our responsibility engaged if an underage customer were to disregard this clause.

Electronic signature

The simple click on the button “place the order” constitutes an electronic signature, which has the same value between us as a handwritten signature.

Confirming the order

The information concerning the order will be confirmed by e-mail. It will confirm that your order has been received and payment accepted. It will also confirm details of the address of delivery, the items ordered and their price.
You will later receive an email once your order has been shipped. By logging on to your account, you will then be able to find out the estimated date of delivery. Despite all our efforts, unforeseen delays may occur. If your order still has not reached you three days after the estimated date of delivery, contact us.
Please note, that once an order is placed it is irrevocable, subject to the application of the revocation period described below.

Prices are quoted in euros, dollars and pounds, according to the country the order originates from. They include all taxes, but do not include shipping costs.

In order to make navigation easier, We recognise your country through your IP address. Therefore, if the country from the order originates differs from the delivery address, price modifications may occur at the time of placing the order.

In the case of orders sent to countries outside metropolitan France, You are the importer of the product or products concerned. For all products shipped outside the European Union, customs and excise taxes, as well as other local taxes may be due. These taxes are not our responsibility and are not billed by Us. It is up to You to declare the goods to the authorities concerned and pay the necessary dues in your country. We have no control over these taxes and we cannot estimate them, since customs and excise taxes vary greatly from one country to another. Please contact your local customs office for further information.

Taxes applicable are calculated at the rate in force on the day of the order. Any changes in the rate will be automatically applied to the price of the products in the shop online.

We reserve the right to modify our prices at any time, but the products will be invoiced at the price in force at the time the order is received. The sums paid can never be considered to be deposits or part payments.

To settle your order, You can choose from the many methods of payment available on the order form. You guarantee that You fulfil the necessary requirements to use the method of payment You have chosen when validating your order form. We reserve the right to invoice all bank charges related to payments received. Unless otherwise stipulated by prior arrangement, invoices are payable net, without discount, as soon as the goods are available.
We reserve the right to suspend the processing, or shipping of a delivery in the case of a credit card refusal, or in the case of non payment. We also reserve the right to refuse an order in the event of your not having totally or partially settled a preceding order, or one on which there is a settlement dispute pending.

Delays

The delivery times that appear on the site are given approximately. We decline any liability.

Delivery terms and conditions

The goods are delivered to the address shown on the purchase order; You must ensure it is correct. All returned orders due to a false or incomplete address will be reshipped at your cost.
Our transport services are reliable. However, as in all shipments, a delay may occur, or a parcel may get lost. If the delivery is later than the date indicated on our site, We ask You to report this to Us by e-mail. We will then contact our carriers so that we can start an enquiry. If the parcel is found, it will immediately be redirected to your place of residence (as in most cases). In other instances, We will ship a substitute item to You at our cost. If the original product(s) ordered were no longer available, we would reimburse You the cost of the goods lost by the carrier.

Delivery problems due to the carrier

All order irregularities (damages, item missing in comparison to the delivery form, damages packages, broken items…) must be indicated on the delivery order under “hand-written reserve”, that You will then have to sign. Next to that, You will also have to confirm this irregularity by sending Us an e-mail stating your order number by logging on to contact page.

Delivery Errors

-The user will have to claim any delivery errors and/or nonconformity of the products in kind or in quality, not in compliance with the purchase order, on the day of delivery, or at the latest, on the first working day following the delivery date. All claims placed after this date will be rejected.
-The claim will have to be made by email through the contact page.
-All claims not made in compliance with the above procedure will not be considered, and We shall disclaim all liability.
-Upon receipt of the claim, You will be advised of the procedure to follow for exchange, reimbursement or offer so that we can come to a mutual agreement. A product can only be exchanged after receipt of a claims e-mail according to the instructions outlined above.

In the case of a return, the shipping charges will be at our cost (only in the case of delivery errors), except if the returned item doesn’t correspond to the original claim made by e-mail.

In accordance with article 4 of decree n°78-464 of 24th March 1978, We are obliged to guarantee You against all hidden vices of the product sold.

At your own costs, You may return your order within a period of seven working days from the date of delivery, if You are not satisfied with the products. The period runs from the date of delivery of your order. If this period expires on a Saturday, a Sunday or a bank holiday, or other non working day, it will be extended to the first working day thereafter. All returns will have to be advised to Us by e-mail via the contact page.
We shall only accept products returned to Us intact, in their original packaging and in perfect condition. Any products returned spoilt or whose original packaging has been deteriorated will be neither exchanged nor reimbursed.
This right to withdraw your order will be exercised without any penalty except for the return shipping cost. If You choose to return your order, You have the right to either ask for reimbursement of the sums paid or for an exchange. If an exchange is chosen, the reshipping costs will be at your expense.
If You choose to return your order, We shall endeavour to reimburse You upon receipt of your return package.
You will then be reimbursed by crediting your bank account (secured transaction).
