      If your two orders were placed on the same day until 8am the next morning, it is possible. You just need to let us know via the contact form "contact us", specifying the number of the 2 orders to be grouped and the address chosen for delivery.

      Beyond this time, for technical and logistical reasons, it is impossible to group 2 orders together.

      Can I add an item to my order?

      For technical and logistical reasons it is unfortunately not possible to add an item to an order.

      However, you can quickly place a second order which can be grouped with the first. Please note that the 2 orders can be grouped together if they were placed on the same day or the evening before and up to 8am the next day.

      See the conditions in the previous tab: I wish to group 2 orders.

      Where's my invoice ?

      The invoice is inside your package, with your order.

      You can find it in "My account", "My invoices".

      Please keep it carefully as you will be asked for it in case of exchange, refund or guarantee of the product(s).

  • My payment

      What are my means of payment?

      To validate your payment and thus confirm your order, you can pay by :

      - Credit Card

      - PayPal

      - Gift card

      The products remain the property of Pnélope Store until their complete payment.

      All prices and the total amount are displayed including VAT. Payment is collected at the time of shipment.

      Reminder: For all orders shipped outside the European Union or in the French overseas departments and territories, our logistics team will invoice your order excluding VAT. The amount debited will be exclusive of VAT.

      Is my credit card payment secure?

      You can pay for your order on penelope-store.com by credit card in complete security (Carte Bleue, Visa, Eurocard, Mastercard, Amex accepted in France) or by PayPal.

      Payment is made on HiPay Full Service's secure bank servers. This implies that no banking information about you transits via the site of pénélope-store. Your order will be recorded and validated as soon as HiPay Full Service has accepted the payment.

      Thanks to the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol, you can securely transmit the credit card number, the validity date, the name of the cardholder (name on the credit card) and the cryptogram on the back of the card. Your credit card details are encrypted using the SSL protocol and never pass through the network.

      Penelope-store.com has no access to these coordinates, and does not keep them on its servers. This is why they are asked again to you at each new transaction on our site. Cards issued by banks domiciled outside of France must be international bank cards.

      When is my payment cashed ?

      If you pay by credit card, your payment is debited when your order is invoiced, i.e. on the day it is shipped. If your payment method is deferred, the payment will only appear at the end of the month.

      Similarly, if you have a deferred payment method, the credit will appear as "deferred".

      If you pay via PayPal, the amount is debited as soon as your order is confirmed.

      What happens if my payment is refused?

      If your payment is refused it may be due to:

      • a typing error in one of the numbers on your bank card
      • you have exceeded your authorised payment limit

      After several invalid attempts, it is also possible that the payment analysis and control service has refused your payment. In this case, you will have to wait several days to renew your payment with the same card.

      In this case, your order will not be processed. It will be cancelled and no amount will be debited.

      We invite you to renew your order and to contact your bank to identify the possible problem.

  • My reimbursements

      Can I be reimbursed?

      The various manufacturers' guarantees are generally for one year.

      In order to benefit from the product guarantee, you are asked to keep the purchase invoice. Please note that for certain products, it is necessary to return the guarantee form provided or to fill in the guarantee form available directly on the site.

      What are the limits of the guarantees ?

      We draw your attention to the fact that proof of a problem caused by negligence, deterioration or improper use would render the manufacturer's warranty ineffective.

      In this specific case, the product may be returned to you in its original condition, or repaired upon acceptance and prior payment of a quotation made by the manufacturer.
