Article 6: Delivery

1. Products will be delivered at the address specified by the Buyer.

2. The Supplier effects delivery within 30 (thirty) days, unless a different delivery period has been agreed upon. The delivery period (agreed or otherwise) starts when the Supplier has received payment from the Buyer.

3. The Supplier always uses the following indicative delivery periods, whereby Orders that are placed on working days before 2.00 pm are dispatched that same day and Orders that are placed during the weekend or on public holidays are dispatched the next working day:

• EU Member States (zone 2): 2 – 6 working days;
• Norway and Switzerland (zone 3): 3 – 6 working days;
• Other countries (zone 4): 8 – 10 working days.

The above indicated delivery terms do not count as the final and definitive lead-times as referred to in article 6:83 sub a of the Dutch Civil Code. The terms mentioned above are not binding and are indicative by nature. The delivery terms and dates mentioned by or agreed with Supplier are determined to the best of its knowledge on the basis of the information known to it at the time of entering into the Contract.

4. Orders may be subject to additional government (import) duties and fees at the customs authorities of the country of destination. These duties and fees must be paid by the Buyer. The Buyer can consult the shipping policy on the Website for an indication of these duties and fees. The Supplier cannot estimate or control the amount imposed upon delivery.

5. If the Buyer refuses delivery of the Order due to a customs charge, the Products will be considered abandoned and disposed by the shipping carrier. In that case the Order is not eligible for any refund. The Supplier is not liable for loss of the Products or any additional costs as a result of the refusal by the Buyer.

6. If the delivery is delayed or if an Order cannot be executed or can only be executed in part, the Buyer shall be informed within 30 days after having placed the Order. In that case, the Buyer is entitled to dissolve the Contract free of charge. If the Buyer dissolves the Contract for the reason mentioned above, the Supplier refunds the amount paid by the Buyer.

7. The Supplier is entitled to make partial deliveries.

8. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the Products are dispatched in a manner to be determined by the Supplier. The Supplier is not liable for any damage whatsoever related to the dispatch of the Products.

9. The Buyer guarantees that the delivery address agreed upon is correct and complete and that the Products can actually be delivered at that address. If delivery of the Products appears to be impossible, the Supplier is at liberty to deliver the Products, at the Buyer's risk, at the most suitable location - in the opinion of the Supplier and/or its transporter - in the immediate vicinity of the delivery address agreed upon, or to take the Products back at the Buyer's risk and expense, possibly store them elsewhere and/or possibly deliver them at a later time.

10. The risk of the Products to be delivered passes to the Buyer when the Products are actually available to them or to a third party designated by them (not being the carrier).

 

Article 7: Reflection period

1. As the Contract was concluded via the Website the Buyer has a reflection period (herroepingstermijn) of 14 (fourteen) calendar days, within which the Buyer may dissolve the Contract without stating any reason.

2. The reflection period referred to in paragraph 1 commences the day after the Buyer, or a third party who has been designated by the Buyer in advance and who is not the carrier, has received the Product, or, if the Buyer has ordered several Products in one order, the day on which the Buyer, or a third party designated by them, has received the last Product. The Supplier has the right to refuse an order of several Products with different delivery periods.

3. If the right of withdrawal is exercised and the Contract is therefore dissolved, the Products to which the dissolution pertains shall be returned to the Supplier not later than 14 days after the right of withdrawal has been exercised. After having received the returned Products, the Supplier will refund the purchase price paid for the returned Products and any delivery costs to the Buyer.

 

Article 8: Obligations of the Buyer during the reflection period and right of withdrawal

1. During the reflection period, the Buyer shall handle the Product and its packaging with due care. The Product may only be unpacked to the extent required in order to determine the nature, features and functioning of the Product. The Buyer may only use and inspect the Product as he would be allowed to do in a physical point of sales.

2. Products that are not in the same condition as the state of delivery or that have been used will not be exchanged or refunded. At all times the Buyer is liable for any decrease in the value of the Product as a result of handling the Product in a way that extends beyond the handling permitted in paragraph 1.

3. If the Buyer wishes to exercises their right of withdrawal, they must provide Supplier with an unambiguous statement (eg. in writing by post or e-mail) of their decision to revoke the Contract. The Buyer may use the withdrawal form provided by the Supplier but is not obliged to do so. All Products must be returned to the Supplier in its original packaging (price tags, labels, etc. attached to the Products may not be removed) not later than 14 days after the right of withdrawal has been exercised.

4. The Buyer returns the Product along with all accessories delivered, in its original state and packaging and in accordance with the instructions given by the Supplier. This means that any returned Products must be newly manufactured, undamaged, unworn and unwashed. The Products shall still bear all original labels and hangtags as attached thereto by the Supplier. The costs of any missing Products and damaged packagings and/or Products are for the account of Buyer and shall be reimbursed by the Buyer to the Supplier.

5. The Buyer must pay the shipping cost for returning the products in accordance with their right of withdrawal as mentioned in Article 7. The Supplier is not obliged to reimburse such costs. If the Buyer uses the return label provided in the order box (available for EU countries only), the Supplier will deduct the price for the return shipping from the refund.

6. If the Buyer is situated outside of the EU, the Buyer is obliged to pay all shipping costs incurred for the initial purchase or return of the Products. The Supplier is not obliged to reimburse these shipping costs.

 

Article 9: Obligations of the Supplier in case of a withdrawal

1. The Supplier reimburses all payments made by the Buyer for the Product(s) returned and will do so immediately, but within 14 days following the day on which the Buyer reports the withdrawal to the Supplier. The Supplier is entitled to delay its repayment until it has received the Product or until the Buyer demonstrates that they have returned the Product, whichever is the earliest.

2. The Supplier is entitled to refuse any Products returned or only refund part of the payments received from the Buyer if the Products are not in their original packaging, have been processed or used (other than necessary in order to determine the nature, features and functioning of the goods) and/or are damaged. The Supplier then notifies the Buyer immediately after receipt of the Products.

3. The Supplier is not obliged to reimburse any additional costs incurred because the Buyer has expressly opted for a delivery method other than the least expensive standard delivery method offered by the Supplier.

 

Article 10: Complaints

1. Any defects which were not visible on the outside at the time of delivery must be reported by the Buyer to the Supplier timely after such defects have become apparent, or the moment when these could reasonably have been discovered.

2. When requested, the Buyer provides the Supplier with all information the Supplier deems relevant in this respect.

3. Any of the Buyer's claims against the Supplier relating to defects in Products delivered lapses if the Buyer failed to handle, use or store the Products correctly, or handled, used or stored the Products under circumstances other than envisaged by the Supplier.

7. The foregoing does not affect the Supplier's liability under mandatory statutory provisions.

 

Article 12: Force majeure 

1. A situation of force majeure exists on the part of the Supplier if the Supplier is prevented from meeting its obligations under the Contract as a result of circumstances that occurred through no fault or beyond the control of the Supplier.

2. Without prejudice to the Supplier's other rights, the Supplier is, without any notice of default being required and without being obliged to pay any compensation, entitled to dissolve all or part of the Contract if it is temporarily or permanently impossible for the Supplier to properly perform all or part of the Contract due to a situation of force majeure, or to suspend the (further) performance of the Contract for the duration of the situation of force majeure.
