Hello.
This site has only existed since May 24, 2024, see https://whois.domaintools.com/chaporama.fr 

This site is compliant as the mandatory legal notices are present, therefore I think it is reliable.

I still did a search via Google Lens with a photo of an article for sale on the site and as I presented it, it's a pure, unadulterated dropshipping site.

Dropshipping involves purchasing low-cost items from suppliers, generally Chinese, that are resold at a significant markup.


Here is a hat for sale on chaporama.fr for €32.90


 



Here is the same hat on Aliexpress for €7.43; the chaporama site didn't even bother to change the photo, it’s a copy-paste of the photo on AliExpress. I checked with other hats, it’s the same.


 


Moral of the story, if you want to buy a hat on chaporama.fr, it’s better to buy it directly on Aliexpress as it will cost the same and you will save money.

Thank you for all this information, we are very far from the speech they give on their site:

Since our humble beginnings, Chaporama has grown to become a reference in the world of headwear. We have traveled the world in search of the best artisans and the finest materials

No comment LOL.

Thanks again.

I ordered this hat on December 2, 2024, and I received it on January 17, perfect to give as a Christmas gift!
What a disappointment when I finally opened my order of 2 hats, Made in China on all the labels!!! And especially what a horror! The hats have no shape, especially the second one which is enormous and constantly flops down! Do not order from this site unless you enjoy paying a certain price thinking you'll get quality and end up with such a mediocre product! One piece of advice, RUN AWAY!!!!

It is true that the statement made on the site is rather misleading, to say the least.

Reminder of message number 3 :

“Since our humble beginnings, Chaporama has developed to become a reference in the world of hats. We have traveled the world in search of the best artisans and the finest materials.”

You can try to contact the site owner and request a refund; everything is indicated on this page.

Hello

I ordered a chapka but I quickly realized that it was dropshipping. In fact, he offers items that you can find directly on sites like AliExpress. When you see the price, you can clearly think that he offers quite good quality, but in the end, after some research, you realize that you're dealing with dropshipping, it's a shame... so I was still able to cancel my order. He actually offers a cancellation service within 24 hours after the purchase. Same for delivery; it's quite slow and poorly tracked...

He collects the money but does not send the order.

Today still nothing received and the amount was deducted 3 days after the order was placed

This site is a real scam

Good evening,

The site is based in France, so in case of a dispute, it’s better. The legal notices are present and the SIRET number is real and corresponds to PMC. So the site is legally reliable.

As for the quality and after-sales service, I don’t know anything about it.

Best regards.
