The customer service of the present website is accessible via Live Chat, Facebook Messenger, and email at the address contact at wondercity.com.
The present website is freely and openly accessible to all internet users. Its purpose is the online sale of decorative items and various fashion accessories to individual customers (B to C). These general terms and conditions of sale apply to all orders placed on our e-commerce website.
By placing an order, you agree to the terms and conditions stated below. This acceptance will involve checking the box corresponding to the following sentence: "I have read and accept the terms and conditions." The user acknowledges the evidentiary value of the automatic recording systems of the publisher of the present website.
2. Purchase Process
In order to place an order, users can select one or more items and add them to their cart. By reviewing their cart, the customer can verify the quantity and nature of the chosen items and review their unit prices as well as the total price of the order.
By clicking the validate button, the user accesses a form in which they can either enter their login credentials if they already have them or register on the site by completing the presented form with their personal information.
Customers are then prompted to verify their delivery and billing details, the mode and estimated delivery date, and are invited to make their payment by being redirected to the secure payment interface. Once the payment is received by the website publisher, the latter undertakes to acknowledge receipt of it to the customer electronically.
The delivery charges and any potential transaction fees, as well as the estimated delivery date of the order, are indicated to the customer before any payment is made. The provided timeframe is an estimate that may vary depending on logistical contingencies; this timeframe is in no way guaranteed. Once confirmed, the order becomes firm and definitive. However, it can be canceled and refunded as long as it has not been shipped, upon simple request.
3. Payments
Users can make their payment by credit card, bank transfer, PayPal, and by French check in certain cases. Credit card payments are made through secure transactions provided by Crédit Mutuel (Monetico). In the case of credit card payments, WonderCity does not have access to any data related to the user's payment methods. Payment is made directly between the user and the banking institution.
To streamline the purchase process and facilitate future payments by the customer, credit card data is stored on the Monetico platform of Crédit Mutuel. The customer can delete this data at any time from the payment page. WonderCity does not see or store banking data under any circumstances.
In the case of payment by check or bank transfer, the payment must reach us within 5 days of the order date. Beyond this period, the order will be automatically canceled, and we may prohibit you from using this payment method in the future. The processing and delivery of the order can only begin upon receipt of the payment.
Multiple Installment Payment
For purchases over 100€, each Club WonderCity member may, in certain cases, have the option to pay in multiple monthly installments without fees using their credit card. In this case, a schedule will be proposed to them before their confirmation.
We reserve the right to accept or decline multiple installment payments without fees at our sole discretion. If we accept such payments, the terms and due dates will be determined by us.
In case of non-payment due to the rejection of one or more installments, the customer undertakes to settle their situation by bank transfer within a maximum of 15 days after notification. After this period, the customer is informed that WonderCity will take all necessary steps to recover their debt. Additionally, the customer will immediately lose all loyalty benefits (club membership, loyalty credit), and we reserve the right to refuse any new order until the outstanding amount is settled in full. We may also use received payments to offset outstanding amounts at our sole discretion.
Partial Payment
When at least one item in the order is not available, we offer you the option to pay a deposit, the amount of which is indicated at the time of your order. When all items are in stock and your order is ready to be shipped, we will notify you so that you can pay the balance. If the balance is not paid within 30 days from this notification, we reserve the right to cancel your order.
4. Delivery
WonderCity commits to packaging and handing over your order to the carrier on the same day or the next business day after receiving the full payment for the order, subject to the availability of all items that make up the order. If your order contains at least one unavailable item, we will wait until all items are in stock before dispatching your order.
1 order = 1 package
Please note that we do not proceed with partial shipment of orders, except in exceptional cases at our sole discretion. Therefore, we recommend avoiding combining available and unavailable products within the same order, unless you accept this constraint.
Furthermore, if the opportunity arises, WonderCity reserves the right to combine multiple orders from the same household in a single package. Any shipping fees paid for one or more of these orders will not be refunded for this reason.
Delivery Dispute
In case of a delivery dispute (package indicated as delivered but not received), the customer agrees to actively collaborate with WonderCity, providing any attestation or document requested by the carrier as part of the claim.
5. Returns, Exchanges, Refunds
"Satisfied or Refunded" Guarantee (Extended Right of Withdrawal)
On WonderCity, customers have an extended 30-day period from the date of receiving the package to request an exchange or refund without having to provide reasons or pay penalties, except for return costs if applicable. The WonderCity guarantee includes free return costs for deliveries within metropolitan France. International returns are at the customer's expense.
Damaged Item / Defects
Any damaged item or item with defects must be reported to us with supporting evidence (photos of the item, the package, etc.) within a maximum of 3 days following its receipt. In this case, the WonderCity guarantee includes free return costs. The customer will have the option to choose between exchanging the item or receiving a refund. However, please note that the majority of figurines available on our site are hand-painted items made using techniques that might show slight imperfections in mold details (e.g., small holes), finishes, etc. These minor irregularities are a guarantee of an authentic product and cannot result in any compensation if they are not significant.
Exercising the Right of Return
To exercise this right, regardless of the reason, the customer must make a return request from their customer account or by contacting customer service. The customer agrees to follow the provided instructions, particularly returning the item(s) in their original box, in the same condition as received, inside a sturdy and appropriate shipping box. No signs of use should appear on the returned product(s) or their original box.
Upon receipt of your package and subject to the aforementioned conditions, we will issue a refund within 8 days (or ship an exchange order). The refund will be made using the payment method used in the transaction, or if the customer prefers, in the form of loyalty card credit. For payments made by bank transfer or check, we will ask you to provide an IBAN.
6. Loyalty Program
Loyalty Card / Discount Coupons
We offer a virtual loyalty card to reward our customers. Each ordered item results in an amount credited to the loyalty card. The credited amount is indicated on each product page, as well as on the cart page, before confirming your order. The amount will be effectively credited upon the shipment of the said order. The calculation terms for the credited amounts remain at our sole discretion and may be changed at any time without notice or notification.
You can accumulate these euros to exchange them for discount coupons, which you can use for your future orders. The discount coupons are generated from your virtual loyalty card and can be applied to your total cart amount, provided it exceeds the value of the coupon. Please note that discount coupons have a limited validity period, are non-transferable, and can only be used once.
In case of item return and refund, the loyalty card will be debited by the associated amount. The credit on the loyalty card and the resulting discount coupons are not means of payment and cannot result in any form of refund; they exclusively entitle you to a reduction in the purchase price in proportion to their value.
The granting of a virtual loyalty card is subject to the validation of at least one delivered and non-refunded order in the last 12 months. If a customer has not placed any orders in the last 12 months, they permanently lose the credit associated with their loyalty card.
WonderCity Club
In addition to the advantages mentioned earlier, WonderCity allows you to benefit from immediate discounts on nearly all items on the site. For this, we automatically grant you access to the WonderCity Club based on the amount you have spent in the last 12 months. This level is recalculated every day, so the Club level is constantly adjusted based on your spending over the last 12 months. Please note that these expenses correspond to your actual payments and not your orders. The loyalty levels are as follows:
- Less than €50 spent in the last 12 months: non-Club member
- €50 spent in the last 12 months: 1-star member
- €250 spent in the last 12 months: 2-star member
- €500 spent in the last 12 months: 3-star member
As soon as a Club member logs into their customer account, all prices on the site are updated based on their loyalty level. Discounts vary based on items and other parameters, and preferential prices are clearly indicated where applicable. The calculation terms for the discounts remain at our sole discretion and may be changed at any time without notice or notification.
