Purchasing goods from Cdiscount
We help arrange a purchase from Cdiscount by contacting the seller, agreeing the invoice and arranging handover. For a large order, packaging and dimensions affect the route and cost as much as the listing price.
What you entrust to OZTA
You choose the product and approve the order terms. We handle the agreed purchase: communicating with the seller, agreeing the invoice, arranging payment and providing status updates. Sourcing, separate inspections and onward delivery are discussed according to your needs.

Product purchasing
We agree the selected product, option and quantity with the seller, and check their company and payment details and invoice. After your confirmation, we arrange payment and handle order correspondence. Arranging payment of this invoice is already included in the standard purchase-service fee.

Sourcing and translation
The site is entirely in French. We will find the required product and translate the description and specifications. Standalone sourcing is charged separately. The published package applies to China; for another market or an extended brief, we will prepare an estimate before work begins.

When agreeing the order, we record condition, contents and whether the goods match the listing before shipment.

We explain required documents and calculations for electronics and furniture; clearance follows agreed terms.

Order status
A paid order has a responsible coordinator. We agree on a communication channel and pass on confirmed status updates from the seller and contractors. If conditions change, we explain why and discuss the next step; tracking depends on the carrier.
Order assistance
We check the product, seller, payment and delivery from Cdiscount before ordering.
Checking availability
We check the selected seller's delivery to the agreed receiving address and onward forwarding availability.
We clarify seller terms
The entire site is in French. We translate descriptions, specifications and reviews.
Checking the total cost
We compare Cdiscount, Amazon.fr and Fnac listings by price, specifications and delivery terms.
Flash sales
We monitor promotions and confirm product availability before checkout.
Consolidate purchases
If the goods can be stored and transported together, we agree consolidation at one warehouse and compare the total shipment cost.
Terms and returns
In case of a discrepancy, we record it and check Cdiscount's returns rules before shipment.
Cdiscount: included items and total cost
On Cdiscount, compare offers with the same item number and included items. For a large product, attach package dimensions if they appear in the listing.

- France
Furniture or appliance delivery cost can significantly change the order total.
A coupon enters the estimate only after its terms are checked for the selected purchase.
How your order proceeds
We first establish the product and purchase terms, then agree the estimate and the steps after purchase. You decide before paying for each stage; product substitutions or budget changes require separate approval.
Link or item number
Send a link or item number. If you have no link, photos and a description are sufficient; specify the option and quantity you need.
Seller and availability
We will clarify availability, included items, condition and shipping from the seller. We will discuss any differences from your request before purchase.
Region and restrictions
We will check whether the product can be purchased and shipped to your country, and which documents and packaging are required.
Price before payment
We will show the product price, delivery to the first warehouse, the OZTA fee and known subsequent costs. We will identify amounts that still depend on weighing, measurement or an external quote. Purchasing begins after your approval and payment for the relevant stage.
From purchase to shipment
After agreement, we arrange the purchase, communicate with the seller and provide updates. Only the agreed checks and packaging are carried out before onward shipment. We record the procedure for discrepancies or returns in advance.
Purchasing, quality inspection and transport involve different work. We record what is included in the order, who performs individual actions and which documents you will receive. Returns depend on the seller, stage of fulfilment and agreed terms.
How to calculate the purchase-on-behalf fee
We use the agreed goods price from the seller and apply the rate from the table. Delivery is not part of the fee calculation.
Rate by product price
Minimum OZTA purchasing fee: $20
- Less than $1,000
- 10%
- From $1,000, but less than $5,000
- 9%
- From $5,000, but less than $10,000
- 8%
- From $10,000, but less than $20,000
- 7%
- From $20,000
- 6%
The minimum OZTA purchasing fee is $20. For example: goods at $50 + fee of $20 = $70, excluding delivery, import costs, insurance and bank costs.
Fee calculation example
- Seller's goods price
- $2 000
- OZTA fee
- $180
- $2 000 × 9% = $180
- Goods + fee
- $2 180
This covers only the goods and fee. Seller delivery and onward freight, import charges, insurance, banking and foreign-exchange costs are separate.
What the fee includes
- One seller, up to 10 agreed items and one planned shipment.
- Checking company and payment details and purchasing terms, and agreeing the seller’s invoice.
- Payment of the seller’s invoice is already included in the fee; we do not charge a second percentage for it.
- Seller communication, order statuses and OZTA report.
What is paid separately
- Seller delivery to our warehouse and onward transport.
- Import charges, insurance and warehouse operations, when needed.
- Bank and foreign-exchange costs, and any additional work after agreement.
If additional contractor work is needed
For additional work: the provider’s price + 10% for OZTA, with a minimum OZTA coordination fee of $20 per agreed assignment. If coordination is already included in a paid package, there is no second fee. Samples and their delivery are paid separately. We do not apply this percentage to government charges, import taxes or the insurance premium.
