9.3 Upon receipt of the withdrawal request, DROP will promptly email Buyer an acknowledgement of receipt.

9.4. In the event of withdrawal, Buyer will be refunded all amounts paid, including any shipping costs (but except for additional costs resulting from Buyer's possible choice of a means of delivery other than the least expensive means of standard delivery offered by DROP), minus - if applicable - the cost of return, as well as any customs charges for returns from countries outside the EU. Said refunds will be made without undue delay and in any event no later than 14 (fourteen) days from the day DROP was informed of Buyer's decision to terminate the Contract. Said refunds will be made using the same means of payment used by Buyer for the initial transaction.

9.5. Unless DROP has offered to collect the products subject to Buyer's exercise of the right of withdrawal itself, Buyer shall return or deliver the products to DROP without undue delay and in any event within 14 (fourteen) days from the day on which Buyer has notified DROP of its intention to withdraw from the Contract. The deadline shall be deemed met if the Buyer returns the products before the expiration of the 14 (fourteen) day period to the following address: Paciotti S.p.A.

(Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna signed in Washington in 1973) certification and delivered outside the territory of the European Union, may be returned only if accompanied by the certificate issued by the competent body. The Buyer who intends to return such type of goods will therefore be required to obtain the necessary documentation for the return of the products and to bear the related costs, which in no case can be held against DROP.

9.6 Unless DROP has offered to pick up the Products itself, DROP may suspend reimbursement until receipt of the Products or until Buyer demonstrates that it has returned the Products, whichever occurs first.

10. Defects/Deformities of Products/Legal Warranty of Conformity/Product Liability.
Defects/Deformities of Products/Legal Warranty of Conformity/Product Liability.


10.1 If the Products have a warranty recognized by the Manufacturer of the Products (commercial/conventional warranty), any defects/shortcomings of the Products must be reported by the Buyer directly to the Manufacturer in the manner and under the terms specified in the warranty.

10.2 The Products sold through the On-Line Shop to the Purchaser, as a "consumer", shall benefit from the legal conformity warranty provided for by articles 128 et seq. of the Consumer Code ("Legal Warranty"). In order to benefit from this warranty, the Purchaser must keep and exhibit the invoice (or the purchase receipt or DDT) that he/she will receive at the same time of delivery.
The Legal Warranty may be claimed for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery of the product, provided that the lack of conformity has manifested itself within the term of 2 (two) years from the delivery of the product. The Buyer must report the lack of conformity by contacting Customer Service in the manner indicated in Article 16; this report must contain an accurate and complete description of the defects or faults complained of. In such a case, Customer Service is required to acknowledge the Buyer's communication and instruct the Buyer to ship the defective product.

The Buyer may request, at its discretion, to repair the product or to replace it, without charge to it, unless the remedy chosen is objectively impossible or excessively burdensome compared to the other taking into account all the circumstances and, in particular, those listed in Article 135-bis, paragraph 2, Consumer Code.

Paciotti Srl may refuse to bring the goods into conformity by repair and replacement if repair and replacement are impossible or if the costs it would have to bear are disproportionate, taking into account all the circumstances, including those referred to in Article 135-bis, paragraph 2, letters a) and b), Consumer Code.

The Buyer may request, at its discretion, an appropriate price reduction or termination of the Contract where any of the following situations occur: (i) Paciotti Srl has failed to carry out the repair or replacement or has not carried out the repair or replacement, where possible, pursuant to Article 135-ter, paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of the Consumer Code or has refused to bring the goods into conformity pursuant to the preceding paragraph; (ii) a lack of conformity is manifested despite Paciotti Srl's attempt to restore conformity to the goods; (iii) the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify the immediate reduction of the price or termination of the contract of sale; (iv) Paciotti Srl has declared or it is clear from the circumstances that it will not restore the conformity of the good within a reasonable period or without significant inconvenience to the Buyer.

It is understood that the Buyer has no right to terminate the contract if the lack of conformity is minor. Where, after collecting the product, it is verified that the reported lack of conformity actually exists, any costs of transport, repair or replacement of the product will remain the responsibility of Paciotti Srl. Otherwise, that is, where it is verified that the reported lack of conformity does not exist or that there are no prerequisites for the applicability of the Legal Warranty, the Legal Warranty will not operate and all transportation costs as well as the costs related to the verification of the alleged lack of conformity will be borne by the Buyer, who will be notified. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any defects or damages occurring after the time of delivery of the goods such as, for example, those caused by improper use by Buyer or third parties are not covered by the Legal Warranty.
