Art. 6. Information sheet

6.1 Each product is accompanied by an information page outlining its main features (Information Sheet). The images and descriptions on the Site reproduce as closely as possible the characteristics of the Products. The colors of the Products, however, may differ from the actual colors due to the settings of the computer systems or computers you use to view them. In addition, the Product images in the Information Sheet may differ in size or in relation to any accessory products. These images should therefore be understood as indicative and with the tolerances of use.

Art. 7. Prices

7.1 All prices of Products posted on the Site are inclusive of Value Added Tax.

7.2 The Seller reserves the right to change the price of the Products, at any time, without prior notice, provided that the price charged to you shall be the price set forth on the Site at the time you place your order and that no account shall be taken of any change (upward or downward) after the order has been transmitted.

7.3 Shipping charges, if any, shall be expressly and separately stated in the order form before the user proceeds to transmit the order form.

Art. 8. Purchase orders

8.1 The Seller will ship the Products only after receiving confirmation of payment authorization or upon credit of the Total Amount Due. Ownership of the Products will be transferred to you at the time of shipment, which shall be deemed to be the time of delivery of the Product to the carrier. On the other hand, the risk of loss of or damage to the Products, due to causes not attributable to Seller, shall pass to you when you, or a third party designated by you and other than the carrier, take physical possession of the Products.

The Service you choose will be performed only upon payment of the Total Amount Due. The Seller reserves the right not to provide the service if, subsequent to the submission of your purchase order, it is determined that you have not paid all or part of the Total Amount Due.

  • Payment card
  • Satispay

9.2 The Seller accepts credit cards from the circuits:

  • VISA
  • MasterCard (Cirrus Maestro)
  • American Express
  • Elo
  • Union Pay

The charge will be made only after (i) the details of your payment card used for payment will have been verified, and (ii) the issuer of the payment card you use will have issued the debit authorization.

Confidential payment card data (card number, cardholder, expiration date, security code) are encrypted and transmitted directly to the payment processor without passing through the servers the Seller uses. The Seller therefore never has access to and does not store, even if you choose to store such data on the Site, your payment card information used to pay for the Products.

The charge will be made when the order is transmitted.

Art. 10. Delivery of Products

10.1 There are no limitations on delivery, except as may be indicated on the Site and/or in the Product Sheet.

10.2 In Italy delivery is chargeable for orders less than or equal to €70.00; for higher amounts delivery is free. Overseas delivery is charged for orders less than or equal to 100.00 €; for higher amounts delivery is free.

10.3 From the date of placing the order, the Products will be delivered within 5 days and, in any case, within thirty days from the date of conclusion of the contract.

10.4 It is your responsibility to verify the condition of the delivered Product. Notwithstanding the fact that the risk of loss or damage of the Product, due to causes not attributable to the Seller is transferred when you, or a third party designated by you and other than the carrier, materially comes into possession of the Product, the Seller recommends that you verify the number of Products received and that the packaging is intact, not damaged, nor wet or otherwise altered, including in the sealing materials and you are invited, in your interest, to indicate on the transport document of the carrier, any anomalies, accepting the package with reserve. In the event that the package shows obvious signs of tampering or alteration, prompt notice should be given to the Seller. This is without prejudice, in any case, to the application of the rules on the right of withdrawal (if any for the Product) and the legal guarantee of conformity.

10.5 You have the option to pick up the Product at a pick-up point, according to the options and methods available on the Site and/or during the purchase process, provided that this method is available for the Product you selected. You will be promptly notified when the Product is ready to be picked up at your chosen pickup location. From the communication you have 1 day to pick up the Product at the collection point. Mere failure to collect the Product shall not be construed as an exercise of the right of withdrawal, if any, and shall not entitle the purchaser to a full refund of the sums paid for the purchase of the Product.

Art. 11. Right of withdrawal

11.1 In the event of a purchase on the Site, unless otherwise indicated, you do not enjoy the right of withdrawal provided by Art. 52 of the Consumer Code with reference to the Product(s) indicated in this Article. In fact, sealed goods that are not suitable for return for hygienic or health protection-related reasons are sold on the Site.

Art. 12. Legal Warranty

All Products sold on the Site are covered by the Legal Warranty of Conformity provided for in Articles 128-135 of the Consumer Code (Legal Warranty).

To whom does it apply

The Legal Guarantee is for consumers only. It, therefore, applies, only to users who have made the purchase on the Site for purposes unrelated to any entrepreneurial, commercial, craft or professional activity.

When applying

The Seller shall be liable to the consumer for any lack of conformity of the Product and which becomes apparent within two years after such delivery. The lack of conformity must be reported to the seller, under penalty of forfeiture of the warranty, within two months from the date it was discovered.

Unless proven otherwise, defects of conformity that become apparent within six months after delivery of the Product shall be presumed to have existed on that date, unless such a presumption is inconsistent with the nature of the Product or the nature of the defect of conformity. On the other hand, starting from the seventh month after delivery of the Product, it will be the consumer’s burden to prove that the conformity defect existed when the Product was delivered.

Therefore, to be eligible for the Legal Warranty, the consumer must first provide proof of the date of purchase and delivery of the goods. It is advisable, therefore, that the consumer, for the purpose of such proof, retain the purchase invoice or any other document that can attest to the date the purchase was made (e.g., payment card statement) and the date of delivery.

In the event of termination of the contract, the Seller will refund to the consumer the total amount paid, consisting of the purchase price of the Product, shipping costs and any other additional costs. In case of price reduction, the Seller will return the amount of the reduction, previously agreed with the consumer. The amount of the refund or reduction will be credited to the means or payment solution used by the consumer for the purchase.

The Seller shall not be liable in case of damages, of any nature whatsoever, resulting from the use of the Product in an improper manner and/or not in accordance with the instructions provided by the manufacturer as well as in case of damages resulting from unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure.

Art. 13. Conventional manufacturer’s warranty

13.1 Products sold on the Site may, depending on their nature, be covered by a conventional warranty issued by the manufacturer (Conventional Warranty). You can enforce this warranty only against the manufacturer. The duration, extension, including territorial extension, conditions and terms of use, types of damages/defects covered, and any limitations of the Conventional Warranty depend on the individual manufacturer. The Agreed Warranty is voluntary in nature and does not replace, limit or affect or exclude the Legal Warranty.

Art. 14. Applicable law and jurisdiction; out-of-court settlement of disputes – Alternative Dispute Resolution/Online Dispute Resolution

14.1 Purchase contracts concluded through the Site are governed by Italian law. It is without prejudice to the application to consumer users who do not have their habitual residence in Italy of any more favorable and mandatory provisions provided by the law of the country in which they have their habitual residence.

14.2 Please note that in the case of a consumer user, the court of the place where the user resides or has elected domicile shall have jurisdiction for any dispute relating to the application, execution and interpretation of this document.

14.3 Pursuant to Art. 141-sexies, paragraph 3 of the Consumer Code, the Seller shall inform the user who holds the status of consumer under Art. 3, paragraph 1, lett. a) of the Consumer Code, that, in the event that he has submitted a complaint directly to the Seller, as a result of which it has not, however, been possible to resolve the dispute thus arising, the Seller will provide information about the Alternative Dispute Resolution body or bodies for the out-of-court settlement of disputes relating to obligations arising from a contract concluded under these General Conditions of Sale (ADR bodies, as indicated in Art. 141-bis et seq. Consumer Code), specifying whether or not it intends to use such bodies to resolve the dispute itself.

14.4 The Seller shall also inform the user who qualifies as a consumer under Art. 3(1)(a) of the Consumer Code that a European platform for online resolution of consumer disputes (so-called ODR platform) has been established. The ODR platform can be accessed at http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/; through the ODR platform, the consumer user will be able to browse the list of ADR entities, find the link to the website of each of them, and initiate an online dispute resolution procedure for the dispute in which he or she is involved.

14.5 The consumer user’s right to bring the dispute arising from these General Terms and Conditions of Sale before the competent ordinary court of law, whatever the outcome of the out-of-court settlement of disputes relating to consumer relations through recourse to the procedures referred to in Part V, Title II-bis Consumer Code, shall in any event be unaffected.

14.6 The user who resides in a member state of the European Union other than Italy may, in addition, have access, for any dispute relating to the application, execution and interpretation of these General Conditions of Sale, to the European procedure established for small claims, by Regulation (EC) no. 861/2007 of the Council, July 11, 2007, provided that the value of the dispute does not exceed, excluding interest, fees and expenses, Euro 2,000.00.
