Impossible to place an order on the site with the promotion code. I had to call to do it while leaving my credit card number. Invoice without amount!

The product description (pipe) on the site did not seem to match the product received, very large size even for a 'reader' pipe, difficult to clean due to its length.
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello,
the dimensions of the pipes are indicated on our site on the pipe sheet at the bottom right. For cleaning, we recommend the long conical pipe cleaners from Vauen which are suitable for very long pipes and are very easy to use. We wish you much pleasure in smoking this pipe.
Best regards
Claire.

The pipe broke while I was disassembling it to clean it. I am disappointed by Jeantet on this reputation.
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback about this small pipe from the Jeantet brand. This model from St Claude has the advantage of being thin and light. On the other hand, when disassembling, you must wait until your pipe is completely cold to avoid damaging it. Additionally, we recommend always turning the stem in the same direction, as if it were screwed, and positioning your hands close to the joint (between the stem and the pipe). Do not hesitate to contact us by email if you wish to have the stem of this pipe repaired. Furthermore, our team will be happy to provide you with all the advice and tips you need for cleaning your pipes.

2 weeks for a delivery to €22 (Reunion) is a bit too much. Otherwise, it's very good.
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for your feedback following your recent order on our online store. Your delivery address being in Reunion, the shipping cost is indeed €22 (we try to calculate the fairest fees regardless of the number of items ordered). As for the delivery time, we naturally depend on the carriers and the customs clearance time. We will make sure to pass on your comment to the relevant transport services. Thank you and see you soon on www.pipe.fr!

Too much delay in delivery!
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for your feedback regarding your recent order on our online store. Your purchase validated on 30/07 was shipped from our premises the next morning (that is to say on 31/07). Then, we obviously depend on Colissimo (the postal delivery service). The usual delay for deliveries from France to Belgium is 3-4 days. The Colissimo tracking indicates that your package was delivered on 04/08. Please feel free to contact us directly by email (contact[at]pipe.fr) if you need more information. See you soon on www.pipe.fr!

The site is good but too bad about the shipping price.
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello, thank you for your feedback following your recent order on www.pipe.fr. The amount of shipping costs is automatically calculated on the cart page based on the delivery address provided. For example, for delivery in France, the shipping cost via Colissimo (package delivered to the mailbox, without signature) is €5.50, regardless of the number and weight of the ordered items. We are also considering the possibility of delivery to relay points. This solution should be implemented in the coming months, which will further reduce shipping costs.

Carton delivered completely crushed, luckily the pipes are not broken but the packaging of each pipe is unusable for sale.
You are not responsible for this situation, but given the amount ordered we would have liked to have impeccable items.

Hello and thank you for your feedback through the Avis-Vérifiés platform. Following the photo you sent us by email, we will immediately send you new packaging for the different pipes in your order. At the same time, we are also escalating the information to the postal services to prevent this from happening again. See you soon on www.pipe.fr

Disappointment pipe not French

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello, thank you for your feedback regarding your recent order on www.pipe.fr. At La Pipe Rit, we do indeed offer pipes from Saint-Claude but also very nice quality pipes made in other countries. The beginner's kit you chose was designed in Italy. We have added this information on the website to clarify this for future customers. The whole team wishes you pleasant tastings with your new pipe!

very disappointed with your attitude regarding the repair of an obvious defect in your pipe
I find that your approach is absolutely not commercial, charging me €14 for repair and shipping costs for a €64 pipe is very borderline

Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for sharing your feedback with us. As indicated in our previous email exchanges, this is certainly not a manufacturing defect. In Saint-Claude, our master pipe maker noted that your pipe was particularly dirty in the stem. Not having been cleaned regularly, the fluff was 'stuck' by the tars inside the stem and that is why it detached from the stem. To avoid this, we recommend using suitable cleaning tools more regularly. You will find all our tips for effectively cleaning your pipes in the 'Blog' section of the website www.pipe.fr. Also, we remain at your disposal if you need additional tips.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback via email. As stated in our response, if your new pipes do not suit you perfectly (and you have not yet smoked them), it is entirely possible to return them for an exchange for longer models. On the website, we systematically indicate all the dimensions of the pipes (length, height, depth, and inner diameter of the bowl...). However, do not hesitate to contact us if you need additional information before your next order.

The filters are brittle
Lack of consistency
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for your feedback regarding these filters for pipes selected in your recent order. These Savinelli filters (famous brand of Italian pipes) are indeed made of balsa. Balsa is a lightweight and very soft wood that has the advantage of absorbing impurities (tar) as well as potential condensation inside the pipe. We recommend changing the filter every 2 or 3 pipes for maximum efficiency. If you need further advice, do not hesitate to contact us directly by email ([email protected]).

It started with a delivery model error, and a quick return agreement, so far it could be better but good responsiveness... but since then a problem: it has been over a week since my pipe was returned, still nothing... followed up yesterday by email... no response... I wonder when I will receive the correct pipe! First purchase on this site, will it be the last?

Hello, we are indeed sorry for this mix-up that occurred during the preparation of your order. As indicated in our email dated today, we have just received your returned package, which is why you have not yet received the new package. We are now proceeding to send your pipe and adding a small additional gift to apologize for this unusual error.

Speed of service and impeccable quality. I pay an extra €2 for delivery with signature and the package was found in my mailbox, so I 'threw' €2 out the window! I am still waiting for a credit or a commercial gesture from them.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for your feedback regarding the delivery of your package. As agreed during our phone conversation on 30/04, a credit was issued on the same day. The amount of this credit corresponds to the price difference between the Colissimo delivery 'with signature' and the 'without signature' delivery. No code is necessary, the credit will be automatically taken into account on the cart page when you are logged into your account.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to share this information regarding the delivery of your package. In the current context related to Covid-19, Colissimo has forced postal workers to prioritize delivery without signature (that is, directly in the mailbox), in order to avoid physical contact. Furthermore, the documentation you received (tips for smoking a pipe and latest news) is also available on our website. Please feel free to consult them or contact us by email if you cannot find the information you are looking for.

Ergonomics and clarity are present. The site 'MF gifts' seems to duplicate even if it does not have the same references. Why? The Chacom Maya pipes that I had to buy on a foreign site are missing! I am attached to French manufacturing but also to French distribution. Good continuation. Customer Service by phone: IMPECCABLE, thank you

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you very much for taking the time to leave us your feedback following your recent order. We indeed have two online stores: pipe.fr and mf-cadeaux.com. The second website groups more exceptional models (most being unique pieces) as well as cigarette holders. Regarding your other remark, you are right, the Chacom pipe catalog is very vast. Not all are therefore directly visible on our site. However, if a particular model interests you, do not hesitate to contact us as we are able to offer you any pipe and that within a very short time since we are located right next to the manufacturing factories in Saint-Claude.

Maybe a long delivery due to COVID-19 but more than 10 days for delivery when it was announced in 48h on the site.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your message following your recent order. Indeed, as indicated on our website, La Poste (and more specifically Colissimo) continues to provide its services during this difficult period. The usual delay for delivery in mainland France is 48h. In the current context, Colissimo has decided to operate (at least for the moment) only 3 days a week and with reduced staff, which has naturally resulted in longer delivery times.

A bit small and just a small hole for smoking, not practical to clean
Translated reviews
Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback regarding your recent purchase. To clean the inside of the pipe, the Vauen 'conical' pipe cleaners (which you also purchased) are perfectly suitable. Indeed, they are thinner on one side, which makes it easier to insert them into the pipe. First, wait for your pipe to be completely cold before disassembling it. Then, you can insert the pipe cleaner into the pipe from either end. Please feel free to contact us directly by email if, despite our recommendations, you still encounter difficulties cleaning your pipe.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback. This Peterson Standard 304 pipe is indeed designed to be smoked without a filter. Besides the photo showing the disassembled pipe (where you can see that it is without a filter), we have taken care to indicate this particularity in the 'Characteristics' section. At this point, it is specified 'Without filter'. In any case, if this pipe does not fully meet your expectations, it is entirely possible to return it to us for an exchange or a refund. Please feel free to contact us directly by email for more details on this matter.

Hello Sir, thank you for taking the time to leave us your opinion about this pipe from the Jeantet brand. As indicated in the item description, this pipe was offered at a reduced price due to its imperfect finish (notably a visible chip in the white finish). This is why we classified this pipe among the current promotions on our website.

I have several pipes of different models and the filters I received are for only one model, I would have preferred to have different models of filters.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback about this item. These metal filters have an 'adjustable' part. If needed, you can slightly spread the two legs so that the filter stays well in place in the bowl. By making this adjustment, it will fit perfectly to the diameter of the hole (3 or 4 mm) of your different pipes.

I was disappointed! I ordered a pipe for a Christmas gift, but I felt like it had already been used (some marks). Moreover, I requested gift wrapping, but it was not done.

Response from La Pipe Rit
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback regarding your order on www.pipe.fr. I confirm that the Jeantet pipe you purchased on our site is a new pipe. At La Pipe Rit, we only sell new pipes. The marks you see inside the bowl are completely normal; they are simply marks left by the tools used by the pipe artisans during the manufacturing of the pipes.

The wooden tip of the pipe broke at the point where the plastic tube is inserted. A piece came off. After 3 weeks of low usage (1 pack for 12 days) Customer service informs me, based on the photo, that this is not a defect. Clearly the pipe is FRAGILE then. I did not have this problem with a pipe that costs about 9 euros currently. (20 francs at the time). Not classy then.

Hello Sir, thank you for taking the time to leave us your opinion about this small pipe from Saint-Claude. As indicated during our exchanges by email, you must absolutely wait for your pipes to be completely cold before disassembling them. Moreover, we recommend that you always turn the tube on itself, in the same direction, as if it were screwed onto the wooden stem. We also confirm that we can repair your pipe but that, according to your photo, it will not be covered by the warranty as it is not a defect.
