      2. the goods are fit for the purpose we state for their use or for which goods of that kind are usually used,
      3. the goods correspond in quality or design to that agreed by the parties, or to the design of an agreed sample or template if the quality or design was determined by reference to an agreed sample or template,
      4. the goods are in the appropriate quantity, measure or weight,
      5. the goods comply with the requirements of the legislation.

    1. Prior to receipt of the goods from the carrier. Please, check the integrity of the packaging. If the packaging is damaged, notify the carrier directly and the parcel will be retained by the carrier and returned to us. This is the easiest way to handle a damaged parcel claim and a new parcel will be sent to you.

However, in this case, the goods must be returned undamaged or in sealed or hygienic packaging. Otherwise, you are liable for the diminished value of the goods and/or risk that your right of withdrawal will not arise.

Here the provisions on the guarantee of quality (contractual warranty) will apply here.
    2. What happens after 24 months? After the expiry of this period (24 months), the right to claim for defects cannot be exercised. If this is possible for the goods in question, this period is extended by the time you have not been able to use the goods because they were in the process of a legitimate complaint. Whilst we always try to resolve claims to your satisfaction, some products must be handled in accordance with the instructions on the packaging/label/packaging information - otherwise they will be damaged. In these cases, even if the 24 month period has not yet expired, we cannot accept your complaint in the case of goods that have been modified at your request and in the case of a defect caused by an external event.
