7. Our right to withdraw from the contract if you do not collect items on time in case of delivery to Italy

If, in case of delivery to Italy, items cannot be successfully delivered to the address you provided when you placed your order, or if you do not take over the items at such address, items will wait for you for 10 days at the nearest GLS depot or GLS store. We will notify you thereof via e-mail address you provided when you placed your order. We will provide you with the location of the depot or GLS shop where the items will wait for you. We will also notify you that if you do not collect the items within 10 days after receiving the notice, we will withdraw from the contract as set out below. You will not incur any additional charges if you collect the items at such location.

If you do not collect the items within the time limit set out above, we have the right to withdraw from the contract without notice period. We will send you withdrawal notice via e-mail. In case of withdrawal, we will refund you within 15 days of withdrawal the amount of the payments you made, reduced for the delivery cost and the 4 EUR charged to us by the delivery service for returning the items to us. The reduced refund covers the expenses we have objectively incurred because, despite the notification, you did not collect the items within the time given.

If you exercise your right of withdrawal under point 8 of these Terms and Conditions, you are responsible for returning the items to us. If in the cases described above, the items are waiting for you at a depot or GLS store location, you may collect them from such a location at no additional charges. You shall return them to us at your own expense no later than 14 days after the notice of withdrawal has been sent. We will make the refunds in accordance with the point 8 of these Terms and Conditions. If you do not collect the items from the depot or GLS store location within 10 days, they will be returned to us by the delivery service. In such case we will make the refunds, including delivery costs (except for additional delivery costs if you choose non-standard delivery, which is not the most affordable standard form of delivery offered by us). We will, however, reduce the amount of refund by 4 EUR charged to us by the delivery service for the return of the items. You can avoid this cost by collecting the items from the depot or GLS store location (within the time limit set out above) yourself and returning them to us by another means at your own expense. 

8. Your Right to Withdraw from the Contract if You are a Consumer

If you are a consumer (i.e. a natural person who has purchased an item for purposes other than your occupational or gainful activity) and you come from an EU or EEA Member State, you are entitled to the rights set out in this point.

You have the right to notify us within 14 days from the day you receive the items that you are withdrawing from the purchase contract. If you have ordered more than one item with one order, the period for withdrawal starts on the day you receive the last item. You do not need to give any reason for your withdrawal. It is deemed that you withdraw from the contract in due time if you send the notice on withdrawal within the specified period for withdrawal. 

Inform us about your withdrawal from the contract with an unambiguous statement, from which it is clear that you are withdrawing therefrom to the following email address: [email protected].

To withdraw from the purchase contract, you can also use the form available to you here that you send to the above-mentioned email address.

In case of withdrawal from the contract, send the received item to us by mail to the following address: SB Group d.o.o., Tržaška cesta 202, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia.

You must return the item to us undamaged and in the same quantity, unless the item is destroyed, damaged, lost or its quantity has decreased through no fault of your own. Until the moment of withdrawal from the contract, you may not use the items unlimitedly, but only to the extent that you can inspect and test the items to the extent strictly necessary to establish the actual situation. If the value of the items decreases as a result of conduct that is not strictly necessary to determine the nature, properties and operation of the items, you are responsible for such a reduction in the value.

The only cost you incur in connection with the withdrawal from the contract is the cost of returning the items. You must return the item to us no later than 14 days after the notice of withdrawal has been sent. It is deemed that the item is returned on time if you send it before the expiration of the 14-day return period.

We will make the refunds, excluding delivery costs, as soon as possible, but no later than within 14 days after we receive the withdrawal notice. We reserve the right to withhold the refund of payments received until the receipt of the returned items or until you provide us with proof that you have sent the items back to us.

Please refer to the specific refund and costs point 7 of these Terms and Conditions when delivering to Italy.

If you purchased the items that make up a kit, you can withdraw from the contract only for the entire kit.

Consumers who do not come from EU or EEA Member States do not have the rights set out in this point 8.

9. Material Defects

If you are a consumer (i.e. a natural person who has purchased an item for purposes other than your occupational or gainful activity) and you come from an EU or EEA Member State, you are entitled to protection against material defects under this point.

When is defect deemed material?

A defect is deemed material if:

• item does not have the characteristics necessary for its regular use or placing in circulation;
• item does not have the characteristics necessary for the special use for which the buyer bought it, and this was or should have been known to the seller;
• item does not have the characteristics and features that were expressly or tacitly agreed upon or prescribed;
• delivered item that does not match the sample or model, unless the sample or model was only shown for information purposes.

How is the suitability of the item checked?

The suitability of an item is checked with another, faultless item of the same type, as well as with the manufacturer's statements or statements on the item itself.

How do you claim a material defect?

You can exercise your rights arising from a material defect by notifying us of the defect within two months of the day you discovered the defect. In the notification of defect, you must describe the defect in detail and allow us to inspect the item.

We are not responsible for material defects that appear after two years from the date the item was delivered to you. A defect on an item shall be deemed to have existed at the time of delivery if it occurs within six months from the date of delivery.

If you have notified us of the defect correctly, you have the right to request that:

• we rectify the defect on the item or
• we refund a part of the amount paid in proportion to the error or
• replace defective item with new faultless or
• refund the amount paid.

If the existence of a defect on the item is not disputed, we will comply with your request as soon as possible, within eight days at the latest. However, if the existence of a defect on the item is disputed, we will respond to your request in writing and explain our position no later than eight days after receiving your request.

 

10. Warranty for items if you are from a non-EU or non-EEA country

 

If you are a consumer (i.e. a natural person who has purchased an item for purposes other than your occupational or gainful activity) and you come from a country that is not a member of the EU or the EEA, we offer you a two-month warranty on the items. The warranty includes a warranty for items with defects as defined in the previous point of these Terms and Conditions, which appear within two months of the receipt of the item. We will replace the item with such a defect. You must notify us of the defect within eight days of the occurrence of the defect, otherwise you lose the right to have your item replaced.

 

11. Protection of Personal Data

At SB GROUP, we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. You can find everything about the protection of your personal data in our Privacy Policy.

13. Applicable Law
