"This product is no longer in stock with those attributes but is available with others" – we are not sure that the manufacturer can supply this product, and we prefer not to sell it

I live outside EU, may I buy duty free/ without taxes / ex-vat ?

French taxes are 20% (except books = 5,5%)

Every citizen that lives outside UE, can decide to pay taxes in his own country (or in the country where he buys).

In order to sell ex-vat, we need to prove to the tax administration that the product has left UE

•We ship the product : the international shipping form prove that the product has left UE

•you buy in our shop : you receive a tax form to be scanned at Custom services office (système PABLO). We can check online if form is ok and refund you the VAT.

Be aware that you can only refund VAT on new products, not on second-hand ones.
