If a product is out of stock or on backorder, we will email or call you with an estimated ship date. We understand if it is a time-sensitive purchase, and you can't delay. Please just let us know. Otherwise, we hope you can wait with us. Occasionally there are delays in delivery due to delays of containers at customs or backups in production especially during the holidays and with the new complications of COVID. If this is the case, you will be alerted when we are made aware that a problem exists. Please feel free to contact customer service at kristine@maisondekristine.com or call us at 206 359 0810 if you need to verify stock information before ordering.

Once an order has been placed, we can not usually modify or change the items on it. Be sure to contact us immediately (do not contact the shipper) within 24hrs, with any change requests to see if they are possible. We can still discuss the options and fees with you that would apply post-shipment. All returns will be accessed a 30% restock fee and any carrier fees both ways that will be deducted from your return if the item has already shipped or is at a point we can't cancel, change, or modify it. (Fees do apply for typos, mistakes, or misspellings in your shipping address that requires address changes made with the carrier.) Sometimes if you want to change your shipping address that can be done when it is changing to the same zip code.

90 Days
This item ships Free Freight porch delivery. For custom made-to-order furniture from French Market Collection each piece takes 90 days from placing of the order to delivery. Once a hold has been placed on a product(s) the item can not be refunded. Please be sure that any questions you may have, have been answered before placing your order. These items include French Market Collection, Sugarboo. The freight carrier will call you at the number you provided to set up the delivery appointment. Please be aware that the drivers will not bring the shipment into your home with our standard FREE freight shipping. This FREE shipping is curbside only; the carrier will arrive, put the item on their tailgate where you have to remove it to the ground and bring it to your home without help from the driver. The tailgate will not lower for you nor will the driver help you. If you opt for this service you will probably need four people to assist you if your item is large. (The reason for this is because long-haul truckers make these deliveries and their freight trucks are generally way too long to maneuver and turn around in private driveways.) At this time, you will need to inspect your purchase before signing the delivery paperwork. It is your responsibility to get the item from the curb into your home. (If you are not able then please upgrade to Porch Delivery or White Glove as an option but this must be arranged prior to the shipment leaving. If you do not arrange for this upgrade prior to shipment you may be assessed for any shipping charges and or storage fees until another shipment attempt can be made to you.)
