Conflict with the contract

In the event that the goods upon the receipt by the buyer are not in conformity with the contract (hereinafter referred to as "conflict with the contract"), the buyer/consumer is entitled to the following: The seller shall, free of charge and without undue delay, put the product in accordance with the purchase contract, according to buyer's/consumer’s request, either by exchanging the item or repairing it. However, if such a procedure is not possible, the buyer/consumer can request a reasonable discount on the price of the goods or withdraw from the contract.

This, however, does not apply if the buyer/consumer knew about the conflict with the contract before taking over the goods or was the one who caused the conflict with the contract. Conflict with the contract, which will show within six months of the takeover, is considered a conflict existing already during the takeover, unless this is in contradiction with the nature of goods or unless it is proven otherwise.

Conflict with the contract particularly means that the goods sold do not have the quality and properties, which are required by the contract, described by the seller, manufacturer or their representative, or expected on the basis of their advertising,; or the quality and properties common for goods of the same kind; that the goods do not meet legal requirements, are not in the appropriate amount, measure or weight and do not correspond with the purpose which the seller states or for which they are normally used.

Warranty period

The warranty period for all goods is 24 months.

WARRANTY does not cover the following cases:

  • Goods were damaged by inappropriate or improper handling
  • Goods were damaged by natural elements
  • Goods were damaged by common usage
  • Warranty does not cover battery replacement (for watches)

The warranty period begins with the receipt of goods by the customer, and it may be extended further by the period during which the goods were in warranty repair. In case of the exchange of goods, a new warranty period of 24 months begins.

  • In case of an irremovable defect preventing proper use of goods, the right to a replacement of the defective goods or the right to withdraw from the contract.
  • In case of a removable defect occurring in greater numbers and repeatedly preventing proper use of goods, the right to a replacement of defective goods or to withdraw from the contract.
  • In case of an irremovable defect not preventing proper use of the goods and when the buyer does not require an exchange of the goods, the right to a reasonable discount on the purchase price or the right to withdraw from the contract.
