3.4In the event that your order is not accepted, Chitè will inform you in writing and will return the sum paid for the purchase. The lack of acceptance may depend on the lack of stock of the product, as a consequence of sudden and non-preventable reductions of the available resources, from the identification of an error in the price or in the product description or from the impossibility for Chitè to respect the delivery date indicated at the time order. In any case, Chitè reserves the right not to accept an order for any reason.

This service provides for free delivery of products to the customer, the customer has up to 6 days to make a decision about which items to keep and which to return. The amount of the order is not collected during the check-out phase, in fact, it uses a simple pre-authorization procedure. Once the garments that the customer wants to purchase are defined, through confirmation in the Home Try section on the website, the payment procedure will be carried out and the sum for the selected products will be taken. At the end of the sixth day all items not returned, or without the return procedure initiated, will be considered purchased; Chitè will then proceed with confirming the withdrawal of the amount of the order.
