In general, Standard Orders are delivered to the address specified in the monthly order confirmation. If you are absent at the time of delivery, the order will be left in your mailbox (parcel compartment), if possible. If this is not possible, you will receive a notice to pick it up at the post office. If your package is not picked up at the post office in the allotted time, the price of the order remains due and will not be reimbursed. We are free to dispose of items ordered that have not been picked up at the post office and that have been returned to us, and to sell them to a third party without authorization.
There are no deliveries on Sundays or national and cantonal holidays.

You may return your order up to 30 days after receipt of each Standard Order delivery only if the tobacco stick bundles are in their original packaging. We will not accept returns unless they are intact, and their plastic wrapping is unopened.

Another payment method may be used to reimburse you if you give us your consent. In any case, you will not incur additional charges.
We guarantee reimbursement for any item returned in accordance with the clause of Section 13, provided that all items are returned in the same condition in which you received them. This means that items must be in their original packaging and must not have been used or damaged.
