terms and conditions
ARTICLE 1 – GENERAL CONDITIONS OF SALE
The present conditions of sale govern the purchase
contract between "ARTE ORAFA of PACITTI BIAGIO" - hereinafter
referred to as the "Seller" and the customer concerning the purchase
of products published on the website www.biajusarteorafa.it. By placing an
order, the Customer declares to know and unconditionally accept the general
conditions of sale and to fulfill all the obligations provided in them towards
the Seller. Therefore, the Customer is obliged to carefully read them, print
and keep them, as provided by articles 50 and following of Legislative Decree
no. 206/2005 (Consumer Code).
ARTICLE 1.1 – TAX OBLIGATIONS
Transactions pertaining to indirect E-commerce, if
the customer is a "private consumer", are subject to the regulation
of mail order sales and therefore according to the Resolution no. 274/E/2009 of
the Revenue Agency, the corresponding transactions are not subject to:
The obligation to issue an electronic invoice,
unless requested by the customer no later than the moment of the transaction.
In which case the customer must provide all the necessary tax data for the
issuance of the electronic invoice, as provided for by article 22, paragraph 1,
no. 1), of the Presidential Decree no. 633/72;
The obligation to certify the receipts through the
release of a receipt or tax receipt. This is due to the exemption provided for
in article 2 of the Presidential Decree no. 696/1996.
ARTICLE 1.2 – INTRA-EU OPERATIONS OF INDIRECT
E-COMMERCE
Indirect electronic commerce operations between EU
counterparts are also equivalent to distance sales. For this reason, such
operations follow the VAT regulation applicable to intra-EU transactions. The
regulation is dictated by article 40, paragraphs 3 and 4 letter b) and 41,
paragraph 1 letter b) of the Legislative Decree no. 331/93. The transfer of
goods shipped within the territory of another member state to transferees not
obliged to apply the tax on intra-EU purchases and who have not opted for its
application is considered non-taxable in Italy.
ARTICLE 2 – ORDERS
The order of the goods can only take place
following the procedure on the website and the input of all the required data.
The order is considered accepted upon receipt of the ORDER CONFIRMATION which
will be sent by the Seller by email.
ARTICLE 3 – PRICES
The price indicated on each model is exclusive of
VAT.
ARTICLE 4 – FINISHES
The colors, coatings, and finishes reported on the
site are indicative because it is technically impossible to ensure absolute
fidelity to the original colors. This does not constitute a reason for
contesting the product.
ARTICLE 5 – SHIPMENTS
Shipping times vary according to the products and
finishes and will be specified with the FINAL ORDER CONFIRMATION that the
Seller will send to the customer for the finalization and conclusion of the
order. Shipping times are always indicative, so no liability can be attributed
to the Seller for early or delayed shipment, as the causes are not directly
attributable to her. The goods are shipped to the destination indicated by the
customer in the purchase order. Periods of absence at the indicated address or
other useful communications for delivery must be communicated when ordering to
avoid unnecessary storage costs which will still be charged to the recipient.
ARTICLE 6 – TRANSPORT
The goods are shipped to the destination indicated
by the customer via National and international Couriers, properly packaged and
complete with transport document or accompanying invoice. The related cost will
be automatically calculated and visible during the order procedure.
ARTICLE 7 – PAYMENT
Payment for the ordered goods can be made in the
following ways:
a) At the time of the order via PayPal;
b) Through advance bank transfer to be made upon
receipt of the ORDER CONFIRMATION. All data to carry out the bank transfer are
reported on the final page of the purchase process. The reason for the payment
must include the details of the order holder and the code of the purchased
goods. Any discrepancies between the data communicated by the Customer at the
time of the order and the data entered on the bank transfer could cause delays
in the acceptance of the order by the seller.
ARTICLE 8 – DELIVERY OF GOODS – CONTROL
At the time of delivery of the goods, before
signing the consignment note that the operator making the delivery will ask to
sign, the Customer is required to verify that:
The number of packages delivered corresponds to
what is indicated on the transport document. In case of discrepancy, the
customer should still accept the goods and indicate on the consignment note, in
detail, the number of packages actually received. This discrepancy must be
immediately communicated, via email (info@biaujusarteorafa.it), to the Seller.
The packaging is intact (not wet, punctured, bent,
or otherwise) and not altered in the sealing tapes. In case of evident breaks,
damages, or tampering of the packaging, the customer must write on the
consignment note, in detail, the phrase "specific reserve of goods due to
damaged packages received" and give immediate communication, via email
(info@biaujusarteorafa.it), to the Seller.
In case of evident damages to the products not yet
received, the customer can refuse delivery indicating on the consignment note
the reason for the non-receipt and give immediate communication, via email
(info@biaujusarteorafa.it), to the Seller.
For the protection of hidden damages caused by
transport, it is always advisable to write on the consignment note the phrase
"goods received subject to control" even if the packaging is intact
and without any alteration. Any hidden damages detected, must be communicated
to the Seller, within five days of receipt of the goods, via registered letter
with return receipt to be sent to ARTE ORAFA of PACITTI BIAGIO Via Guglielmo Marconi n. 16 –
03043 Cassino (FR) or through certified email to:
arteorafa.pacittibiagio@pec.it.
ATTENTION: if the customer accepts the goods and
signs the consignment note without applying the necessary reserves, they cannot
subsequently claim any shortages or damages, as the signature constitutes
verification and acceptance of the product's conformity.
ARTICLE 9 – STORAGE
In case of non-delivery, the goods will remain in
storage according to the terms of the law, after which they will be returned to
the sender. The Seller does not assume, for any reason, the possible storage
costs of the goods nor those related to the return, which will be entirely
borne by the customer.
ARTICLE 10 – CONSUMER WARRANTY
The consumer is entitled to the rights provided by
the Legislative Decree no. 24/2002. The products are guaranteed, for conformity
defects, for two years from their delivery.
The Seller guarantees that the sold good conforms
to the declared characteristics and is suitable for the use for which the
object must be used. Any defects or flaws in the delivered product compared to
what was agreed must be reported by the customer, under penalty of forfeiture,
within two months from the discovery of the defect.
The deadline for reporting defects and/or flaws of
the good that are apparent starts from the day of delivery of the products.
The warranty is excluded in the case of damages
attributable to abnormal use of the product by the buyer or from environmental
conditions of the purchased good location such as, by way of example but not
limited to, high humidity level of the room, overheating of the room,
exceptional, unusual temperatures and weather conditions, or improper uses made
by the customer such as poor maintenance (cleaning with improper products or
means).

document, by registered letter with return receipt to be sent to ARTE ORAFA of
PACITTI BIAGIO Via Guglielmo Marconi n. 16 – 03043 Cassino (FR) or via

above, the conformity defects found, and, upon request of the Seller via email,
return any digital photos or if necessary, upon request of the Seller, arrange
for the shipment of the object for which the defect is complained about.
This will allow the Seller to determine whether the
detected defect is attributable to production issues (conformity defects) and
in this case, the defective material will primarily be repaired or
alternatively replaced in exchange for the return of the defective one. If the
Seller determines the improper use of the product by the customer, no free
replacement will be made.
After receiving such communication and/or documentation,
the Seller will proceed, within ten working days, to communicate her decisions
giving the authorization, or not, for the return of the defective material,
with the eventual shipment, via email, of a document that must be attached to
the goods to be returned. The material must be sent to the address that will be
communicated. The replacement will be carried out as soon as possible and the
related shipping costs for the replacement, both those for the return of the
goods and those for the replacement, are borne by the Seller.
