Very good pricing and very quick delivery. Things to watch (if you are in the UK) are the VAT on delivery, which is well explained on the web site, and a need to pay in euros, although the FX rate to... See more

One month and nothing

It's been a month since my order which was supposed to be in stock and still hasn't been shipped. No updates or nothing. I was hoping to get my order for my 1st ski trip but was sure it would arrive for the next one but alas, nothing. That's also my last trip of the year so waiting another 6 months won't be an issue but do not trust their "in stock" or delivery dates.

Hello,

We are sincerely sorry for the situation you encountered with your order and fully understand your disappointment, especially given your ski trip.

Unfortunately, your order was affected by a stock and restocking issue, which resulted in this unusual delay.

As agreed, we have processed your refund.

We apologize again for this experience and thank you for your understanding. Your feedback helps us improve our services.

Sincerely,
Bertrand

No origin statement - charged duty

Although the goods were received quickly, there was no accompanying statement, stating that the boots were of EU origin (they were made in Romania). I'm told this requires an 'HMRC preferential statement'. As a consequence I was charged £24 duty, as well as VAT (which I was expecting). I appreciate this is a Brexit issue but won't be ordering in future as the cost is prohibitive

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

We would like to inform you that we are located in France.

The following information is detailed in our General Terms and Conditions of Sale, and normally, when placing your order, a message in red in the shopping cart indicates that fees may apply depending on the country.

"Since January 1, 2021, VAT and administrative fees apply as follows:

- Orders under £135: Local VAT is paid directly when ordering on our website. Only administrative fees may be charged (£5 for DPD and £11 for DHL).

Orders over £135: Local VAT must be paid upon delivery to the carrier, as well as additional administrative fees (£5 for DPD and £20 for UPS)."

We understand that this may seem restrictive and do our best to ensure this information is clear before you confirm your order.

Sincerely,

A week later still not sent

To be fair with the business, I add an update to the previous comment.
It took a week to dispatch but once it was, it arrived 2-3 days later.

I made an order 1 week ago and still not sent. I read about the speed of delivery... not for me.

Order a jacket

Order a jacket. After receiving the payment they say they don't have it any more, but I can change it for an equivalent product, I asked what is the equivalent product, they say "there isn't one" (although clearly they have the same jacker in other colors. Overall a pretty bad experience.
