Shipping & Returns

1/ How does it work?

All the pieces on Imparfaite belong to professional vintage sellers located across the four corners of France.

We only select the best, to guarantee you authentic, quality pieces.

Only one shipping method: direct seller shipping

You receive your ordered items so quickly because they are sent directly from our partner sellers.

They have made a commitment to the Imparfaite community to send them to you quickly and in careful packaging.

💡 By selecting several pieces from the same seller, you will save on your shipping costs because the seller will group the items in one package.

2/ One order but several packages?

If you have several products in your order belonging to different sellers, you will receive several packages for the same order.

3/ What is the delivery time for an order?

As soon as your order is placed, we inform the partner seller who owns the piece, who will send you your treasures as soon as possible. The reception time is on average 2 to 5 days after shipment for mainland France. For international shipments, the package shipping time may vary depending on the country of destination. You will receive a tracking number by email to find out where your package is.

4/ How much does delivery cost?
You can directly calculate your delivery costs by entering your country in the checkout page. The cost of delivery may vary depending on the weight of the package and its destination.

• For France: we use Colissimo and Mondial Relay for all our shipments in France.
• For international: the tracked Chronopost shipping option is also available for all orders destined internationally.

NB: For orders outside of the European Union and depending on your country's customs formalities, customs clearance fees may be charged to you by your carrier at the time of delivery of your package. To find out more, contact your country's customs office.

5/ Is it possible to return items?
Yes of course. You can order without fear, returns are possible within 14 days from the date of receipt of your package (the postmark being taken as proof).
