Hello, In March 2024 I bought a "Classic bent short pipe" The one I received looks nothing like it, yet it bears the same title "Classic bent short pipe" It looks more like a normal pipe with a bowl and a chamber of a normal straight pipe with a short stem... and for the word bent, we must not have the same definition!!!

I had to pay import fees and taxes to a third party, who delivered the pipe. None of this is noted in La Pipe Rit’s terms of sale. When I complained to La Pipe Rit, they claimed it is listed in their agreement with costumers. It’s not. I will never again purchase anything from this vendor.
Response from La Pipe Rit
Dear Sir, thank you for taking the time to write to us following your order on our online store. For deliveries to USA, the price paid on our website is exclusive of taxes. The product you selected on our website is displayed at a price of €89 including VAT. In your case, it was therefore invoiced excluding taxes, for a total amount of €74.17 (+ shipping costs). As stated in our terms and conditions of sale (which are clearly indicated on our website when you place your order online: https://www.pipe.fr/en/boutique/general-terms-and-conditions-of-sale-3), customs fees and/or import fees may apply upon delivery. We are unable to specify the exact amount of these charges, as they depend on the regulations in force in each country. They generally represent around 20% of the total order value (equivalent to French VAT). We have no control over the calculation of customs fees and are required to comply with applicable laws. Please feel free to contact our team directly by email if you have any further questions or if you need any clarification.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Dear Madam, thank you for taking the time to write to us following your order on our online store www.pipe.fr. Your order placed on July 28 was shipped the very next morning, on 29 July. As always, we do our best to process every order as quickly as possible. Naturally, delivery then depends on the carriers. In your case, shipping to Canada usually takes at least 2 weeks (not 2 days). This timeframe can be extended further due to customs checks carried out in Canada. Following your email on August 11, we immediately opened an inquiry with the postal services to speed up the delivery of your order. Our entire team has closely followed your case in order to provide you with the best possible service. We also invite you to check your email inbox, as we have already sent you all the latest updates regarding the delivery of your package.

Disappointed by this first and probably last experience.
Unfortunately, the service is clearly not up to what one can expect: here, it is not the customer who is king, but the seller.
After only three regular uses by an experienced person (over 50 years of experience with this type of product), the pipe burned. The after-sales service was contacted with supporting photos, and only offered a 20% voucher, while the product had cost €200.
This is very insufficient, and gives the impression that neither the problem nor the customer is taken seriously.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to write to us following your first order on our website. We are sorry to learn that, two months after your purchase, you are not entirely satisfied with the product. Upon receipt of your package and the photo you sent us, we took care to have your Tsuge pipe examined directly by the manufacturer. As indicated in our previous email exchanges, your pipe overheated too much, which caused the wood to literally burn. When using a new pipe, it is imperative to perform a slow and gradual cake formation so that a protective layer of carbon forms inside the bowl. Generally, it should always be possible to hold the pipe in hand without it being uncomfortable. If one feels that a pipe starts to heat up, it is essential to let it cool down or even extinguish it and relight it gently later. After analysis, the pipe masters from Tsuge confirmed that this is not a manufacturing defect. According to our general sales conditions, this situation unfortunately does not allow for warranty coverage. Our entire team remains at your disposal and is listening if you need further clarification.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us this review following your first order online. Indeed, as specified on our site, the flint stones you chose are compatible with Sarôme, Corona, and Savinelli lighters sold on our online store www.pipe.fr. However, you have clearly not purchased a lighter from La Pipe Rit, and we do not therefore know the exact model you already possess.

Like many pipes made in Italy (Amorelli, L'Anatra, Il Ceppo, Luigi Viprati, etc.), Myway pipes are also designed to be smoked without a filter. It should be noted that each smoker has their preferences: some opt for pipes with filters, others for pipes without filters.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to write to us and leave your feedback. We are sorry to learn that your first order on our online store www.pipe.fr did not meet your expectations. Customer satisfaction has always been our number one priority since we opened our store in 1996.

Moreover, the abrasive pipe cleaners you selected do indeed live up to their name. They are designed for deep cleaning and therefore scratch more than classic chenille cleaners. However, you are right, it is not necessary to insist too much in the bottom of the bowl as this could leave a mark after passing the pipe cleaner.

The pipe I received broke during my first attempt to remove the stem cold. This is clearly a manufacturing problem as I have been smoking pipes for 15 years and know perfectly how to maintain them properly. Unfortunately, the company refuses to provide me with a new stem and did not offer me a refund. They told me I had to pay for a new stem at a price almost as high as the original price. This is unacceptable. I strongly advise against this site.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to write these few words through the Avis-Vérifiés platform. Our general sales conditions explicitly state that all our items come with a one-year warranty against any manufacturing defects, starting from the date of purchase. We therefore invite you to return your pipe so that our master pipers can analyze it and propose an appropriate solution. As indicated in our previous email exchange, we do not sell stems alone, as each stem is precisely adjusted to the shank of each pipe. Therefore, the creation of new custom stems is done only in our workshops in Saint-Claude. Upon receipt of your pipe, it will of course be possible to have a custom stem made.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback regarding your last order. The metal filter you refer to in your message has an adjustable section. If necessary, you can slightly spread the two legs so that the filter fits better in the bowl of your pipe. By doing this, the filter will perfectly adapt to the diameter of the hole and will stay well in place in your pipe's tube.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to write to us through the Avis-Vérifiés platform. In your email dated January 27, your initial request concerned the purchase of activated charcoal filters. In this message, you also indicated that you were surprised that the Peterson pipes you had purchased directly in Ireland were not equipped with an activated charcoal filter. In fact, some Peterson pipes are compatible with a filter and others are not. Naturally, we directed you to the activated charcoal filters we offer in our store. As clearly indicated in the description of these filters (Vauen Dr Perl Junior), they are suitable for all pipes with a 9-millimeter bore. We are sorry to learn now that they do not perfectly meet your expectations. Of course, if these filters do not meet your needs, it is entirely possible to return the box for a refund.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello, thank you for taking the time to send us these few words through the Verified Reviews platform. Following our previous exchanges by phone, emails, and upon receipt of your package, we had your pipe assessed by the master pipers of Saint-Claude. All confirmed that you have overheated your pipe too much, which caused the wood to literally burn. When using a new pipe, it is imperative to perform a slow and delicate cake to create a protective carbon layer inside the bowl. Generally, it should always be possible to hold the pipe in hand without it being uncomfortable. If you feel that the pipe is hot, you should let it extinguish and cool down before relighting it. Furthermore, we also reminded you that it is essential to regularly clean your pipes using appropriate accessories for pipe maintenance. According to our general sales conditions, your pipe cannot benefit from the warranty as it is not a manufacturing defect but rather clumsy use. Briar pipes with a bowl lined with meerschaum can be a good solution as meerschaum better protects the wood from heat. Therefore, the briar is unlikely to get damaged even if you draw too hard. Our entire team remains at your disposal if you need further details or additional advice.

However, we do not have the ability to act on these potential customs fees as this depends solely on the regulations specific to each country. We remain at your disposal by email or phone to provide you with further information.
