Effects-of-withdrawal

According to European legislation, the seller guarantees the conformity of sold goods for a minimum period of 2 years from delivery. Therefore, the seller is obliged to ensure that the goods purchased have the quality, functionality or characteristics promised or reasonably foreseeable for at least two years from the time of delivery to the buyer.

Whenever Users act as European Consumers, the legal guarantee of conformity of goods applies to items available on illaboratoriodimichael.com in accordance with the laws of the country in which they usually reside.

The national laws of such country may grant such Users broader rights.

In particular, Consumers residing in France may exercise their conformity guarantee rights within two years from delivery of the goods without having to produce proof of the defect or lack of conformity. The period of time for which the Consumer is exempted from producing proof is reduced to six months in the case of second-hand goods.

Exercising the right of guarantee, the Consumer may choose between requesting the replacement or the repair of the defective good under the conditions specified in the French Consumer Code.

.

This legal guarantee of conformity is applicable irrespective of any further commercial guarantee granted by the Holder.

The Consumer may also exercise the right of warranty for hidden defects in accordance with the relevant provisions of the French Civil Code, choosing between withdrawal from the purchase and reduction of the price.
