General Conditions Of Sale

Terms Of Sales

    1.   ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS

  • Orders sent to us only become final when they have been confirmed in writing.
  • Any subsequent modification of the order requires a written agreement.
  • If we believe for any reason that we can no longer follow up on an order, the EDM SERVICE Company reserves the right to do so by reimbursing the buyer for the deposit paid, without compensation.

  • 2.   DELIVERY TIMES

  • Delivery times count from the day of the order confirmation. The delivery times shown on the order form are purely indicative, and any delays do not give the buyer the right to cancel the sale, refuse the goods or claim damages. .

  • 3. FORTUITOUS CASES AND FORCE MAJEURE

  • The goods travel at the recipient's risk and peril, regardless of the mode of transport, free or collect; the goods can however be insured on the express specification of the customer and at his expense.

  • 5.   RETURN OF GOODS

  • No goods may be returned without the prior agreement of the seller. The return only concerns goods that have not undergone any modification or alteration and must be made in the original packaging. The costs of transport, possible restocking and repackaging are the responsibility of the buyer.
