PRODUCT PURCHASING

The Buyer will have the possibility to purchase the Products after the insertion of his personal data or following the website registration, only if he is 18 years old (or older where it is requested from the Buyer’s local legislation). The Buyer must ensure that his personal data, inserted before the purchase or at the registration moment or in any other moment, are corrected and complete and he is obliged to update them if modified, since they are the only data to which the Vendor will refer in the execution of the contract, relieving the Vendor from any responsibility deriving from inaccuracy of these data.

Only during the registration process, it will be requested to the Buyer to create a password, which has to be treated with confidentiality by him, because every order arrived to the Vendor through the personal password of the Buyer can be identified as personally made by him. The Buyer can purchase the products choosing from the ones present on the Website and putting them in a virtual shopping cart. It is possible to modify this choice at any time before sending the order (regarding quantity, shipping address, payment method, etc.). The order will be completed when the Buyer, after having read these Terms of Sales, with particular reference to contribution for delivery costs and to the modalities of withdrawal right and to the Privacy Policy, once selected the desired payment method, he will choose the “BUY” option. Pressing the “BUY” button by the Buyer means the total acceptance of the Terms of Sale in force and it is equal to a purchase offer. It will be completed with an order confirmation message sent by the Vendor to the Buyer’s mail address, indicated in the period preceding the purchase or during registration, which will contain a summary about the Terms of Sale, about the characteristics of the chosen product, about the price, about the total amount paid and about the withdrawal right. The registered Buyer will have the possibility to view and follow his order status through the “Orders” area on his personal account.

The Vendor reserves the right to evaluate the received orders acceptance and he will communicate to the Buyer the possible impossibility to accept the received orders within 5 days from the day following that on which the Buyer has transmitted the order to the Vendor. The Vendor will provide to refund the amounts already paid with the same modalities by which the payment has been made.

In case of unavailability of products already ordered and confirmed, not attributable to the Vendor responsibility, it will be care of the Vendor to offer to the Buyer an equal or better alternative. In case of rejection of the offer, the Vendor will provide to refund the Buyer for the paid amount, only for the not available product, within 10 days from the date of the first order. The sending of the order from the Buyer counts as preventive acceptance of order delivery, even if only partial, limited to the available products among those ordered. The products are not provided for resale, unless the Buyer is a qualified vendor: anyway the Buyer undertakes to not resale any products before he has got the Vendor’s written consent.

The website is accessible to Buyers from around the World and may contain references to goods unavailable in the Buyer’s Country: in this case the Buyer will be responsible for any fine and/or financial penalty, undertaking to release the Vendor from any charges.

The full integrity of the good is a binding condition for exercising the withdrawal right. The Product will have to be guarded with great diligence and returned perfectly intact, complete in all its parts accessory and packaging, perfectly working and without any sign of wear or dirt. The Product will have to be returned in the original packaging and in turn it will have to be put in a further packaging. The AMR code, shipping address and various directions will have to be affixed exclusively on the latter, as on the original packaging it isn’t possible to affix any label or tape. The withdrawal, besides, finds application at the Product in its entirety, therefore it is not possible to exercise the withdrawal only on accessories and/or parts of the purchased Product.

The costs of packaging and Product return are totally at customer’s charge. The return takes place under the full responsibility of the Customer till the receipt confirmation by Italia dei Sogni. The Customer is liable for any damage sustained during transport.

In accordance with the Consumer Code, only after the Product receipt and only after the positive verification of compliance with the terms and of the procedures for exercising the withdrawal right, and the complete and perfect integrity of it, Italia dei Sogni s.r.l. will proceed, within 10 days since the day in which it has received the returned Product, to refund the sums paid by the Customer for the purchase. The refund will not include the packaging costs and redelivery at our office or other address indicated during the notice of AMR code. The refund will takes place by the transfer procedure of the charged amount on Customer’s credit card or by PayPal, in the case in which he has used these modalities of payment. In all other cases, by bank transfer.

In the case in which the Product is damaged during transport, Italia dei Sogni s.r.l. will report the incident to the Customer within 4 working days since the Product reception, to allow him to exercise any recourse rights that belong to the Customer towards those who have made the shipment on his behalf. In this case, the Product will be made available to the Customer, in order to regain possession of it and, simultaneously, lacking the condition of integrity of the Product, will be refused the withdrawal request.

The right of withdrawal is not applied:

• a) In case of supply of custom-made goods or personalized

• c) In the case in which the purchase has been made in the occasion section (ex. refurbished products)
• d) In case of supply of sealed goods which can’t be returned for hygienic reasons or related to health protection and opened after the delivery
• e) The withdrawal is not possible for foodstuffs and in the other cases provided by law.

In the case in which the withdrawal has not been carried out in accordance with the article 64 and followings of the Consumer Code and/or European Directive 2011/83/UE and, in particular, in the case in which the Product is not intact in all its parts and/or accompanied by its accessories and/or by elements that form an integral part and/or it is devoid of the original package when it is part of the Product, when it is damaged or used by the Customer beyond the limit of the reasonable diligence, it does not result in the termination of the contract and consequently it does not give right at the refund of the amount paid by the Customer for the Product. The Product remains at Italia dei Sogni s.r.l. or other place indicated in writing via email to the Customer, available for withdrawal, which must take place at the expenses and responsibilities of the Customer.

Exercising the withdrawal right, after a not necessary handling to determine the nature, the features, the operation of the same and what is not necessary to evaluate the aesthetic features, will make the Customer responsible of a possible reduction in value. For evaluating the Product and its features, the Consumer is required to handle and examine it with the same care and attention paid for Products sold in a real shop: for example, a bag or a clothing accessory can be tested but not worn, nor used in any way. Consequently, the Customer who intends to assert the withdrawal right, on terms and within the specified times, should handle and inspect the Product with the due diligence for preserving the full integrity of the good.

TThe goods on which the withdrawal right is exercised must be perfectly intact and undamaged, without signs of any damage, without signs of wear, packaged in their original packaging, complete of any accessory or all things delivered with the Product. Otherwise, Italia dei Sogni s.r.l.will evaluate whether to reject the withdrawal request or whether to deduct from the refund an amount corresponding to the decrease in value, as the Product itself is no longer sellable as new.
