The Customer has the right to withdraw from the contract, without giving any reasons, within 14 days. The withdrawal period expires after 14 days from the day on which the customer or a third party, other than the carrier and designated by the customer itself, acquires physical possession of the last good ordered. In the case of a contract relating to multiple goods ordered by the customer in a single order and delivered separately, the 14-day term starts from the day on which the customer or a third party, other than the carrier designated by the latter, acquires the physical possession of the last good. To exercise the right of withdrawal, it is necessary to inform A&D Ties of the decision to withdraw from the present contract through any explicit statement to that effect (e.g. by registered mail, by fax or by e-mail). Following this, A&D Ties will promptly provide a confirmation of receipt of such withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. via e-mail). The term set for the withdrawal is met if the Customer sends the statement before the deadline of 14 days starting from the day on which the customer or a third party, other than the carrier and designated by the customer itself, acquires physical possession of the last good ordered. In the case of a contract relating to multiple goods ordered by the customer in a single order and delivered separately, the 14-day term starts from the day on which the customer or a third party, other than the carrier designated by the latter, acquires the physical possession of the last good.
Effects of withdrawal
Following the termination of this contract, A&D Ties Ties will reimburse all payments made by the Customer, excluding delivery costs. Should they choose to withdraw, Customers are invited not to remove the labels from the products. Once the labels are removed, it will be impossible to request a refund. Refunds will be made through the same payment method used by the Customer during the order procedure, unless otherwise stated. The refund might be suspended until A&D Ties has received the returned products or until the Customer demonstrates the shipment of such products, if earlier. The Customer must return or deliver the products without undue delay and, in any case, within 14 days from the day on which the wish to withdraw from the purchase contract was communicated. The Products must be returned – properly packed in their original packaging, not damaged, altered or soiled and equipped with any accessories, usage instructions and documentation; it is very important that A&D Ties products remain intact – bearing the transport document (found in the original packaging) to allow A&D Ties to identify the Customer (order number, name, surname and address); – without evident usage marks, if not compatible with the performance of a basic test of the item (it must not bear traces of prolonged usage or use exceeding the time necessary for a test, and it must not be in a state that does not allow resale). If the returned product does not comply with the provisions of the previous paragraph, the withdrawal will not be effective.
