CONFORMITY AND WARRANTY

The responsibility for transport is borne by Simba Srl SU, which in the event of damage to the product occurring during transport, will claim against the courier.

The Customer must check the conditions of the products delivered to him, assuming the risk of non-delivery or damage to the products ordered, for reasons not attributable to the Seller, only when the Customer, or a third party designated by him and different from carrier, materially comes into possession of such products.

Upon delivery, the customer must check that the packaging is intact, not damaged, not punctured or open. Any damage must be immediately reported to the courier making the delivery (accepting the goods with a reservation of checks to be written in the courier’s transport document or on the handheld: Eg: “box with holes in it, open box, damaged box”)

In the event that the product is damaged during transport, the Customer must notify it by e-mail clientisimba@virgilio.it within 24 hours with photographic documentation.

Pursuant to art. 130 of the Consumer Code, the Seller is liable to the Consumer for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery of the goods.

In the event of a lack of conformity, the Consumer has the right to restore, without charge, the conformity of the goods by repair or replacement, or to an adequate reduction in the price or to terminate the contract. The Consumer may ask the Seller, at his choice, to repair the good or replace it, at no cost in both cases, unless the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively expensive compared to the other.

In the event that the package shows evident signs of tampering or alteration, the Customer is also recommended to promptly notify the Customer Service at the e-mail address clientisimba@virgilio.it.

The guarantee of legal conformity of the goods, provided for by articles 128 ff. of the Consumer Code, is equal to 24 months: specifically, the Seller is responsible, pursuant to Article 130, when the lack of conformity occurs within two years of delivery of the goods.
