6. DELIVERY, LIABILITY, RETENTION OF TITLE AND ILLEGAL RESALE

The ordered products will be delivered to the address provided by the customer by our appointed courier. The customer is solely responsible for the correctness of the data provided, for example: the shipping address provided must be valid and correct. We decline all responsibility in case of inaccuracy or incompleteness of the delivery address.
Please note that it is not possible to change the shipping address after the order has been sent.
6.2. Processing and delivery times.
The products ordered by the customer will be made within a period of 3-7 working days from the moment the payment is credited.
The seller is in no way responsible for any delays in production attributable to third-party suppliers and shipments may be subject to unquantifiable delays in periods of heavy traffic. In this case, however, the seller undertakes to promptly inform the customer, specifying that the delay does not constitute a right to withdrawal as it was previously indicated.
Any delivery terms, shorter than the aforementioned 3-7 working days indicated, must be previously, and only exceptionally, agreed with the seller and confirmed by the latter at the time of the order summary.
The products are sent intact and subjected to preliminary testing before being placed on the market, therefore all damages subsequent to wear and tear cannot in any way be attributed to the seller.
Please note that we do not deliver to hotels or PO boxes.
The timing of any repairs varies, up to a maximum of 30 working days.
6.3. Return of goods
Upon receipt of the shipment, it is advisable to check the integrity of the goods shipped. The products will be delivered in special packaging: it is the Customer's responsibility at the time of delivery and, before signing the delivery confirmation, to check the integrity of the packaging. If the external packaging is not intact, the customer may refuse the collection, giving written reasons for the refusal and sending us via email/fax to fatticolcuoregioielli@gmail.com, immediate communication of the refusal of the package due to "non-intact packaging". It is understood that once the collection form has been signed by the carrier in charge, the customer may not raise any objection regarding the integrity or otherwise of the packaging and its contents.
6.4. Seller's liability and insurance against transport damage.
The Seller is released from the obligation of delivery by handing the item over to the carrier or forwarder, therefore, from that moment, the risk of loss of the item will no longer be borne by the seller.
The Seller therefore declines any responsibility in this regard and advises the Customer to request shipping insurance in order to be reimbursed directly by the Carrier in the event of loss or damage to the goods.
Customs duties imposed by countries outside the EU are to be considered the responsibility of the buyer.
6.2. Retention of title
The products remain our property until full payment has been made.
Upon receipt of the products, all risk of damage or loss passes to the customer.
6.3. Illegal resale
Please note that, to the extent permitted by law, unauthorized resale or distribution of products sold on the Websites is strictly prohibited. In the event that the seller becomes aware of the illicit and unauthorized distribution of its products, it reserves all rights, reasons and powers in the most appropriate judicial venues in order to obtain the cessation of the illicit conduct and compensation for damages suffered.
7. WITHDRAWAL
Pursuant to art. 59, letter “c”, Legislative Decree 6 September 2005 n. 206 (Consumer Code), the right of withdrawal is excluded as it concerns the supply of personalized and tailor-made goods and therefore not resalable or reusable.
8. WARRANTY
We warrant that the products are of merchantable quality and free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use. No further warranties are given.
The warranty period is two years from receipt of the products.
The warranty does not cover damage to products caused by accident, misuse, abuse, modification, attempted repair, negligence after purchase, normal wear and tear, product discoloration, and/or failure to follow product care instructions.
(The duration of the finish is not attributable to a manufacturing defect, but to personal factors/incorrect use/wear).
In the unlikely event that the products are found to be defective in any way covered by the warranty, please contact customer service. The customer must retain proof of purchase so that it can be displayed. The customer may choose between replacement of the product, if available, or a full refund.
