The customer will have the possibility, before definitively validating his order, to check the details of it and its total price on a summary of order. He will be able to modify his order if he wishes.
Product offers are subject to availability. The indications on the availability of products are provided for information purposes at the time of the order. However if, exceptionally, the product becomes unavailable after validation of the order, the customer will be informed by e-mail.
