Once the elements of the estimate have been reviewed, the Client may validate the estimate in writing, either by signing it and marking it "Good Agreement" or by any other written agreement (return email, etc.), and return it to RIVIERA FINE ART. This estimate will then be considered a firm and definitive Order only upon receipt by RIVIERA FINE ART of a prepayment of 100% of the amount of the estimate, including taxes. It is specified that, prior to the final registration of the Order, the Client's account with RIVIERA FINE ART must be cleared.

Afin d’être validée, le client devra procéder à la vérification de tous les éléments pour chaque article dans son panier et il devra régler par carte bancaire le montant total de la commande. Comme précisé durant ce processus de commande, le client devra également fournir à RIVIERA FINE ART une pièce d’identité en cours de validité pour toute commande d’art ou de joaillerie supérieure à 60€ dans le cadre de la lutte anti-recel selon l’article R321-3 du Code Pénal.

Billing and payment
4.1 Upon placing an order, RIVIERA FINE ART will invoice the Customer in advance of payment.
4.2 Payment can be made by credit card Amex, Visa, Mastercard, payment by internet link. When paying by credit card, the Customer agrees to use only the card he/she holds personally. In case of fraudulent use, the Provider cannot be held responsible. The Customer must indicate at each payment the number, the validity date and the cryptogram of his credit card. The remote payment by credit card is fully secured by SSL protocol and ensured by an organization specialized in secure online transactions. The transmission of banking data is done by secure link and directly on the website of the said organization. In any case, the unavailability of the electronic payment service can in no way exonerate the Customer from his obligation to pay the price of the chosen Services.
4.3 For a corrective order 48 hours before the delivery of the order, any delay in payment will entail, after sending a letter of formal notice, the invoicing of late payment interest excluding all taxes, equivalent to the application of a rate equal to the rate of the European Central Bank increased by 10 points. These penalties will be applied from the due date of the principal to the date of effective and total payment. A fixed indemnity of 40€ to compensate for collection costs will be due by right by all professionals in case of late payment (art. L441-5 of the commercial code). It is expressly understood by the Client that any complaint concerning an invoice must be made in writing and addressed to RIVIERA FINE ART no later than seven days after the date of issue of the invoice (by postal or electronic means). This complaint must include all elements likely to justify the request. The said complaint does not exonerate the Customer from his obligation to pay the full amount of the disputed invoice in accordance with the above conditions. Furthermore, if the collection costs incurred by RIVIERA FINE ART are higher than the above fixed compensation, particularly in the case of recourse to a firm in charge of reminders and formal notices, additional compensation may be required by RIVIERA FINE ART upon justification.
