Each product subject to this contract shall be delivered to the BUYER or to a person and/or organization at the address specified by the BUYER within the timeframe specified in the pre-contractual information section on the website, not exceeding the legal period of 30 days, depending on the distance of the BUYER’s place of residence.

The SELLER declares and undertakes to deliver the product subject to the contract complete, in accordance with the specifications mentioned in the order, with warranty documents, user manuals, and all necessary information and documents as required, in compliance with legal regulations, free from defects, in conformity with standards, and in accordance with principles of honesty and fairness.
