Every presentation of goods placed in the Shop Web Interface is of an informative nature and the Seller is not obliged to enter into the Purchase Agreement in connection with these goods. The Seller expressly declares that although the presentation of goods in the Shop Web Interface could include all essential elements of the Purchase Agreement, it is not an offer under the Civil Code when the Seller has no will to be, by mere acceptance, bound by the agreement concerning the presentation of goods. Therefore, the provision of Section 1732 (2) of the Civil Code shall not apply to the presentation of goods in the Shop Web Interface. Only an order placed by the Buyer pursuant to Article 3.3 becomes a motion to enter into the Purchase Agreement. The Shop Web Interface provides information on goods, including the prices for single products. The prices of goods are listed primarily without value-added tax (hereinafter also referred to as "VAT") and further including VAT (rounding is done according to general mathematical rules) and any other related fees. The product prices are valid for the period they are displayed in the Shop Web Interface.

Before placing an order for goods, the Buyer is obliged to acquaint himself/herself with these Business Terms. The Buyer is also obliged, before placing an order for goods, to acquaint himself/herself with the information on goods in the Shop Web Interface, which includes the product price covering all taxes and fees, product identification and description of its main characteristics.

The Buyer is obliged to acquaint himself/herself with the information published in the Shop Web Interface with regard to transport and payment terms and conditions and their related costs. To place an order for goods, the Buyer shall fill in an order form published in the Shop Web Interface.

By sending the order, the buyer confirms that he/she has read these terms and conditions and other data and information with which to get acquainted, especially according to Article 3.3. these terms and conditions, when sending the order, it is considered that he/she has read them, that he agrees with them, and undertakes to follow them. The data recorded in the Order by the customer are deemed to be complete, correct and true from the moment they are sent. Upon receipt of the Order, the Seller shall, without undue delay, confirm the receipt of the Order to the Buyer via electronic mail delivered to the Buyer’s email address specified in the Buyer’s User Account or in the Order (hereinafter referred to as the “Buyer’s Email Address”).
The Seller is always entitled, depending on the nature of the Order (quantity of goods, purchase price, estimated shipping costs, etc.), to request the Buyer for additional confirmation of the Buyer’s Order (e.g. in writing or by phone).
The contractual relationship between the seller and the buyer arises from the delivery of an unconditional confirmation of receipt of the order, which is sent by the seller to the buyer by e-mail per Article 3.4. of these terms and conditions, to the e-mail address of the buyer (hereinafter also "order confirmation"). Confirmation of the order is therefore the acceptance of the order according to the relevant provisions of the Civil Code and its delivery concludes the purchase contract. Attached to this order confirmation is in particular the current wording of the terms and conditions, a sample form for withdrawal from the purchase contract, for complaints, and for the exchange of goods and the Tariff, all in PDF format. The seller reserves the right to send the buyer with the order confirmation in electronic form and other than the above documentation.
The Seller shall deliver goods to the Buyer in compliance with the Buyer’s Order within the shortest period possible, depending on the Seller’s operational possibilities and availability of goods. Unless agreed otherwise, the contracting parties are aware of the fact that the Purchase Agreement does not include any specific deadline in connection with the delivery of goods.
Unless otherwise agreed between the contracting parties, the buyer undertakes to collect the order made for personal collection no later than 5 working days from the date of receipt of the report on the readiness of the goods for receipt, by e-mail to e-mail address, or by text message to the buyer's mobile phone number as stated in the order. Otherwise, the seller has the right to cancel the order, ie immediately terminate the contract (withdraw from the contract), which informs the buyer by e-mail to his e-mail address specified in the order (hereinafter also "buyer's e-mail address" or "buyer's e-mail").
The Buyer understands that if any product price displayed in the Shop Web Interface, and then in the Order, is apparently lower than the usual price for the same or comparable product in the same place and time, or if the displayed product price is CZK 0.00 or there is no price at all due to an error in calculation or writing or due to a technical error on the Seller’s side, the Purchase Agreement shall not be made, despite the fact that the Seller confirmed receipt of the Order from the Buyer, because the Seller has no will to enter into the Purchase Agreement with such a purchase price or if no purchase price is specified. The Seller is obliged to inform the Buyer of this fact within 3 business days after the date when the Seller sent the Order Confirmation. The Seller is not liable for any damage caused to the Buyer.
The Buyer consents to the use of means of distance communication to enter into the Purchase Agreement. The Buyer shall cover his/her expenses incurred by the use of means of distance communication in connection with entering into the Purchase Agreement (internet connection expenses, telephone expenses).
Once the Purchase Agreement has been entered into, it may be modified by mutual agreement only of the contracting parties. The Buyer is entitled to request the Seller to modify the content of the Purchase Agreement, which is modified upon sending the acceptance, i.e. the Seller’s consent or confirmation of modification concerned sent to the Buyer’s Email Address. The Seller is not obliged to accept any modification, especially if the Seller has already handed over the goods to any third party to transport the goods or if the Seller has modified the goods according to the Buyer’s requirements.
The Shop Web Interface also includes information on shipping costs, i.e. the costs related to packaging and delivery of goods. The information on costs related to packaging and delivery of goods, specified in the Shop Web Interface, is only valid for the deliveries within the Czech Republic.

The international sales shall not be carried out as C.O.D. consignments. Every Order shall be paid for in advance of dispatching the goods by payment card or through bank transfer (using a proforma invoice). If the Buyer asserts the VAT deduction right in the event of an international sale, the Buyer is obliged to submit to the Seller an affirmation of the VAT payment in accordance with the relevant VAT regulation within the Buyer’s country. Based on the valid contracts with producers or carriers, the sale of selected products, product lines, and brands may be restricted to the territory of the Czech Republic only. The seller also allows payment of the purchase price through the online payment system PayPal.
The Seller is entitled to issue gift vouchers. The conditions for their issuance and use are set by the Seller in a separate regulation published on the web interface of the shop. If such regulations are not published, the Seller does not issue gift vouchers.
The Buyer is obliged to pay the Seller a purchase price including the costs related to packaging and delivery of goods to the Buyer, unless agreed otherwise in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price includes the costs related to delivery of goods, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
The purchase price for goods, including the costs related to the delivery of goods under the Purchase Agreement, can be paid by the Buyer as follows:

The Seller is not obliged to perform the Order until the deposit has been paid.
If the Buyer pays in cash within the Seller’s premises or on delivery, the purchase price is payable when taking delivery of goods. If the Buyer makes a non-cash payment in advance, the purchase price is payable within seven (7) days after entering into the Purchase Agreement. If the purchase price is not paid within the period mentioned above, the Purchase Agreement will terminate the time that has expired without any actions taken. If the Buyer makes the non-cash payment, the Buyer’s obligation to pay the purchase price shall be deemed performed when the full purchase price has been credited to the Seller’s bank account.
Also in the event of any payment method other than a non-cash payment in advance to the Seller’s bank account, the Seller is entitled, in justified cases, particularly if the Buyer does not subsequently confirm his/her Order (see Article 3.5), or the shipping cost or product price are too high, to require the Buyer to pay part of or the full purchase price before sending the goods to the Buyer. If the Buyer does not explicitly accept the Seller’s requirement specified in the previous sentence, or does not act in accordance with this requirement, the Seller has the right to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. The provision of Section 2119 (1) of the Civil Code shall not apply.
The Seller shall issue the Buyer a tax document, i.e. an invoice, for every payment based on the Purchase Agreement. The invoice is a receipt of purchased goods. The Seller shall always issue an invoice after the Buyer has paid the purchase price for goods collected in person. If goods are delivered through a carrier, the invoice is included in the consignment. Every invoice shall also serve as a delivery note, unless agreed otherwise. The Seller is a VAT payer. The invoice data of the Buyer must not be modified retrospectively after sending an Order.
If the Buyer does not pay the purchase price or any other financial obligation towards the Seller within the prescribed period, the Buyer is obliged to pay the Seller a contractual penalty amounting to 10% p.a. from the outstanding invoiced sum until the last day on which the sum is fully settled. If the Buyer does not pay the invoiced sum within the due date, the Seller reserves the right to cease any other deliveries ordered by the Buyer. The right to statutory interest on arrears remains unaffected by the contractual penalty agreement.
Either of the contracting parties may withdraw from the contract without further notice, under the conditions stipulated in these terms and conditions or agreed in the contract, even if it does not state or have no reason to do so. The right to withdraw from the contract by the buyer consumer, if the purchase contract was concluded using means of distance communication (distance method), is regulated by Article 5.3. these terms and conditions. Withdrawal under this article requires that it be valid in writing. The written form is maintained even in the event of withdrawal made by electronic means, in particular by e-mail of the buyer, or via a data box. In case of doubt, the seller is entitled to request a signature on a document or e-mail in the form of an electronic signature according to Act 297/2016 Coll., On services creating a trust for electronic transactions, as amended. According to this article, the buyer entrepreneur may withdraw from the contract only until the seller hands over the ordered goods for transport to the buyer entrepreneur, and if the goods are not transported to the destination for him, but takes them over in person at the seller, until he receives the goods from the seller.

According to this article, the seller may withdraw from the contract only until the goods are delivered to the buyer or taken over by the buyer. In the event of withdrawal, the contract is canceled from the beginning and the parties are obliged to return all mutually provided services, no later than fourteen (14) days from withdrawal, but the seller is not obliged to return the funds to the buyer before the buyer returns the goods. If the buyer validly withdrew from the contract according to the provisions in this article, but in connection with the performance of the contract the seller has already incurred costs, the buyer is obliged to reimburse him. The party who intends to withdraw from the contract is obliged to do so without delay, due to the investigation of the rights of the other party.
The Consumer, pursuant to the provision of Section 1829 et seq. of the Civil Code, is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement (see Article 5.3 of these Business Terms), but there are certain agreements when this right cannot be asserted. The Consumer hereby explicitly acknowledges that pursuant to the provision of Section 1837 of the Civil Code the Consumer cannot withdraw from any agreement:

Unless it is a case specified in Article 5.2 of the Business Terms or any other case when it is not possible to withdraw from the agreement, and if the agreement was entered into through the use of means of distance communication, the Consumer is entitled, pursuant to the provision of Section 1829 (1) of the Civil Code, to withdraw from the agreement within a period of fourteen (14) days. This period commences:
a) from the date of taking delivery of goods;
b) from the date of taking the last delivery of goods if the agreement includes several types of goods or delivery of several parts;
c) from the date of taking the first delivery of goods if the agreement includes regular and repeated delivery of goods;
d) from the date of entering into the agreement in the other cases.
The above-mentioned time limit for withdrawal from the Purchase Agreement by the Consumer is regarded as observed if within this period the Consumer sends his/her withdrawal from the agreement to the Seller. The time begins to run on the following day after the fact determining its commencement (e.g. when the Consumer receives the goods). If the last day of the time limit falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, the last day of the time limit is the nearest business day. To withdraw from the Purchase Agreement the Consumer can complete and send the form template provided by the Seller in the Shop Web Interface. The Consumer can also send his/her withdrawal from the Purchase Agreement as documentary material in writing to the Seller’s contact address specified herein below in Article 11.4.

If the Consumer withdraws from the Purchase Agreement, he/she shall bear the expenses in connection with returning the goods to the Seller; this provision shall also apply when the goods cannot be returned by regular post due to the special nature of goods.
The Consumer should return the complete goods, free from any damage and apparent evidence of their use, i.e. clean, with all delivered accessories and complete documentation, in the original intact packaging, in the condition and value the Consumer received the goods. If the Consumer sends the goods in question through a carrier, he/she should pack them into appropriate and strong packaging material so that the goods cannot be damaged during their transport. If the goods are fragile, the Consumer should label the parcel with relevant symbols. The risk of damage of the goods shall be borne by the Consumer until the goods are received by the Seller.
Within fourteen (14) days after returning the goods by the Buyer pursuant to Article 5.4 of the Business Terms, the Seller is entitled to review the goods in order to check whether the returned goods are not damaged, excessively worn out or partially consumed by the Buyer.
In the event of withdrawal from the Purchase Agreement pursuant to Article 5.3 of the Business Terms, the Seller shall return the money received from the Consumer for the purpose of performing the obligations under the Purchase Agreement, i.e. the purchase price paid by the Consumer plus costs related to delivery of goods to the Consumer in an amount corresponding to the cheapest delivery method offered, without any undue delay, but no later than fourteen (14) days after the Consumer’s withdrawal from the Purchase Agreement, in the same manner the Seller received the payment from the Consumer. If in cash, the purchase price shall be refunded under this Article to the Consumer within the Seller’s headquarters or Seller’s premises. The Seller is also entitled to return the performance rendered by the Consumer upon returning the goods by the Consumer or in any other manner if the Consumer agrees and no other expenses to be borne by the Consumer are included. Notwithstanding the previous provision, if the Seller’s obligation to refund the purchase price in accordance with the previous sentence is not performed due to any fact caused by the Consumer (e.g. the Consumer did not collect the money provided through a money order), any other expenses in connection with the repeated refund of the purchase price shall be borne by the Consumer. If the Consumer withdraws from the Purchase Agreement pursuant to Article 5.3, the Seller is not obliged to return the money received from the Consumer until the Consumer has returned the goods to the Seller or the Consumer proves that the goods has been sent to the Seller.
The Consumer acknowledges that in the event of withdrawal from the Purchase Agreement in accordance with Article 5.3 of the Business Terms, the Consumer shall be liable to the Seller, pursuant to Section 1833 of the Civil Code, for decreasing the value of goods caused by handling the goods in a different manner than needed with regard to their nature and characteristics, particularly if the returned goods were damaged, excessively worn out or partially consumed by the Consumer, or if the Consumer apparently used the goods more than is sufficient to find out whether the goods are acceptable. The Seller shall inform the Consumer that the expenses related to returning the goods are based on the expenses required by third parties (i.e. persons providing professional service, repair, and maintenance) towards the Seller.
The Seller expressly declares that in compliance with valid legislation the Seller is entitled to set off unilaterally any monetary claim towards the Buyer, arising from valid legislation or the Purchase Agreement including these Business Terms, against the Buyer’s right to a refund of the purchase price.
The seller is entitled to determine the conditions of possible repurchase of packaging or transport material of goods; if such redemption is allowed, it is governed by the terms and conditions posted on the store's web interface.
If the place of performance is at any other address than the address of the Seller’s premises, the method of transport of the goods ordered by the Buyer shall be selected by the Buyer in his/her Order based on the transport options offered by the Seller. If the Buyer is a Business Person, the Seller’s obligation to hand over the goods shall be deemed performed upon handover of goods to the carrier. If the method of transport is determined by a Buyer’s special requirement and was not offered to the Buyer by the Seller, the Buyer shall bear additional costs associated with this transport method, and upon handover of the goods to the carrier the goods are deemed handed over pursuant to the provision of Section 2090 (1) of the Civil Code; this shall also apply if the Buyer is a Consumer, who, from the moment of handover, bears the risk of damage and accidental destruction of the goods. In any other case, the Seller’s obligation to hand over the goods shall be deemed performed when the Seller enables the Buyer to handle the goods within the Seller’s premises, and has informed the Buyer of this fact in due time, or when the goods are handed over to the Buyer by the carrier if the goods have been delivered to the Buyer.
If for any reasons on the Buyer’s side the goods have to be delivered repeatedly or in a method different from that agreed in the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer is obliged to cover the costs associated with the repeated delivery of goods or costs associated with a different method of delivery of goods.
If the Seller is obliged under the Purchase Agreement to send any goods outside the Seller’s premises to a place determined in the Buyer’s Order, the Buyer is obliged to take delivery of the goods from the carrier. If the Buyer has not taken delivery of the goods from the carrier, he/she has breached an important obligation of the Purchase Agreement and consequently, the Seller is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement immediately and claim compensation from the Buyer covering the minimum efficient costs associated with transport, packaging and related administration expenses. The right to the contractual penalty specified in the previous sentence shall not exclude the Seller’s claim for damages.
When collecting the goods from the Seller in person, the Buyer shall inspect the goods carefully based on the delivery note, invoice or any other document of the purchased goods; in particular, the Buyer shall inspect whether the goods are complete, unbroken and free from any damage.
When receiving the goods from the carrier, the Buyer shall inspect carefully the following:
If the Buyer received the goods without any delivery note, invoice, or any other document of the purchased goods, he/she should immediately request the Seller for such a document for the purpose of inspecting the goods, as the missing delivery note, invoice or any other document of the purchased goods may indicate the fact that part of the goods was not delivered.
If the seller bears the risk of damage and accidental destruction of goods until the goods are received by the Buyer from the Carrier, the Buyer is not obliged to accept those goods from the carrier which are incomplete or apparently damaged. Nevertheless, the Buyer is obliged to record this fact in the shipping document and immediately notify the Seller of this fact, along with the Order number, through an e-mail sent to info@plastymladec.cz.
If the Buyer accepts the goods and then when inspecting the goods, he/she finds any inconsistencies which are at variance with the Purchase Agreement (such as apparent defects), the Buyer is obliged to notify the Seller of this fact within the next business day through an e-mail sent to info@plastymladec.cz, in the following manner:
a) In the event of damaged goods the Buyer shall specify the Order number, consignment number and attach the photo documentation of:
b) In the event the goods are incomplete the Buyer shall specify the Order number, consignment number, list of missing products or component parts, and attach the photo documentation of:
The Buyer is also obliged to write together with the carrier a damage report, which shall be delivered without undue delay to the Seller. Until the damage report has been completed and delivered to the Seller, the Buyer shall not handle the consignment in any manner and is obliged to keep all transport packaging. Whenever any complaint is dealt with, the Buyer shall cooperate with the Seller and the Carrier and submit the consignment at their request. The Buyer may dispose of the damaged goods only upon prior approval by the Seller or the carrier.
The risk of damage and accidental destruction devolves on the Buyer upon taking delivery of goods by signing the delivery note, invoice, or any other document of the purchased goods if collected in person within the Seller’s premises, or by signing the shipping document if the Buyer receives the purchased goods from the carrier unless the risk of damage and accidental destruction devolved on the Buyer earlier pursuant to Article 6.1. Any additional complaint concerning the incompleteness or external damage of goods shall not deprive the Buyer of the right to lodge a complaint of the goods, but at the same time, the Seller is eligible to prove that such a situation is not at variance with the Purchase Agreement.
The rights and obligations between the Seller and the Buyer with regard to the Seller’s liability for defective goods shall be governed by relevant legislation, in particular by the provisions of Section 2099 et seq. of the Civil Code, and also by the provisions of Section 2161 et seq. of the Civil Code if the Buyer is a Consumer.
Goods are defective if not handed over by the Seller in the agreed quantity, quality and design. If the quality and design are not defined, the Seller shall perform its obligations in the quality and design appropriate for the purpose resulting from the Purchase Agreement or the purpose that is deemed usual. If the product quality or design is to be determined by the agreed product sample, the product quality or design shall be in compliance with that product sample. If the product sample quality or design differs from the product quality or design defined in the Purchase Agreement, the Agreement shall apply. If the Agreement and the product sample determine the product quality or design in a different manner but they are not in conflict, the product quality or design shall be in compliance both with the Agreement and product sample. Possible defects shall also include performance of a different obligation, any mistakes in documentation necessary for the use of goods, and legal mistakes. Any goods includes a legal mistake in the event that any third party asserts its right to the goods and the Buyer did not know or could not know about this third party’s right. Defective performance shall also include the case when the Seller assures the Buyer at variance with the facts that the goods have no defects or are designed for a specific purpose, or if the Seller has alienated any goods illegally. If any defect is apparent and evident at the time of entering into the Purchase Agreement or it can be found out through a public register, the defect is to be at the Buyer’s expense. The previous provision shall not apply if the Seller concealed any defect deceitfully or if the Seller expressly assured the Buyer that the goods did not have any such defect, or had no defects at all.
The Seller shall be liable to the Buyer for ensuring that in devolving the risk of damage upon the Buyer the goods have no defects, nor will they occur in the future, and that no defect caused by the Seller’s breach of its obligation will occur in the future. If the Buyer is a Consumer and any defect will occur within a period of six (6) months after taking delivery of the goods, they shall be deemed defective from the time of taking delivery.
If the Buyer is a Consumer, the Seller shall be liable for ensuring that at the time when the Consumer receives the goods,
a) they have the properties agreed upon by the contracting parties, and in the absence of such a provision they have the properties described by the Seller or producer or which the Buyer expected based on the product nature and advertising carried out by the Seller or producer;
b) they are fit for the purpose specified by the Seller or the purpose for which the goods of this type are normally used;
c) they are in compliance with the product sample quality or design agreed upon by the contracting parties if the product quality or design was determined by the product sample agreed upon by the contracting parties;
d) they are in adequate quantity, measurements or weight; and
e) they are in compliance with valid legislation.
The Buyer is eligible to assert any claim for defective goods before court if he/she complained about the defect in question to the Seller, without undue delay after the Buyer could inspect the goods and discover the defect, either through a notice describing the nature of the defect or simply identifying the defect. If the Buyer does not complain about the defect in due time and the Seller will make objections to the delayed complaint, the court shall not admit the claim to the Buyer. This shall not apply if the defect results from the fact the Seller was aware of when handing over the goods. The Consumer is entitled to assert the claim for defective consumer goods within a period of twenty-four (24) months and the Business Person is entitled to assert the claim for defective goods within a period of six (6) months. The period for asserting claims for defective goods commences from the date of receiving the goods by the Buyer. If any complaint is handled in the form of replacement of goods, the period for asserting the claim for defective goods shall not commence from the very beginning. If any complaint is admitted and handled via repair or replacement, the period for asserting claims for defective goods is extended by the complaint period. The complaint period commences from the following day after the date on which the complaint was lodged and terminates on the date on which the Buyer was notified that the complaint had been handled.
The Seller recommends to the Buyer to read carefully the instructions for use before using the goods and then follow these instructions. Otherwise the Buyer might damage the goods due to their misuse and consequently, the Buyer would not be entitled to assert the claim for defective goods.
If the goods do not possess the properties specified in Article 7.3 of the Business Terms, i.e. they are not free from defects pursuant to Article 7.2 of the Business Terms and when any defect is deemed material breach of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer is entitled:
a) to removal of the defect by delivering new goods free from defects or delivering any missing thing;
b) to removal of the defect by repairing the goods;
c) to an adequate discount on the purchase price; or
d) to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement.
When reporting any defect (i.e. complaint) or after reporting the defect without undue delay, the Buyer shall notify the Seller of the claim he/she has chosen. The Buyer shall not change the chosen claim without the Seller’s consent; this shall not apply if the buyer requires the Seller to have the defect repaired and then the defect turns out to be irreparable. If the Seller does not remove the defect in question within a reasonable time or informs the Buyer of its intention not to remove the defect, the Buyer is eligible to require an adequate discount on the purchase price or is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. If new goods are delivered, the Buyer shall return to the Seller at its own expense the original goods delivered to the Buyer. If the Buyer does not choose any of the above claims in due time, he/she is eligible to the same rights resulting from defective performance as in the case of immaterial breach of the Purchase Agreement. If the Buyer does not notify the Seller of any defect in due time, the Buyer shall be deprived of the right to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. Any defect shall be reported without undue delay after it can be detected by the Buyer if exercising sufficient care. Until any defect is removed, the Buyer does not have to pay the part of the purchase price that is adequate, by estimation, to the Buyer’s right to a discount. The Buyer is not eligible to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement, nor is he/she eligible to require the Seller to deliver a new thing if the Buyer is not able to return the thing in the same condition in which he/she received it. This shall not apply:
a) if a change of condition results from the inspection to detect a defective thing;
b] if the Buyer used the thing before discovering a defect;
c) if the impossibility to return a thing in unchanged condition was not caused by the Buyer’s action or omission; or
d) if the Buyer sold a thing before discovering a defect, consumed a thing or modified a thing in using it regularly; if any of the above only occurred partially, the Buyer shall return to the Seller every part possible and shall pay the Seller a compensation corresponding to the amount to which the Buyer benefitted from the use of the thing concerned.
If the goods do not possess the properties specified in Article 7.3 of the Business Terms, i.e. they are not free from defects pursuant to Article 7.2 of the Business Terms and when any defect is deemed immaterial breach of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer is entitled:
a) to removal of the defect by delivering new goods free from defects or delivering any missing thing;
b) to removal of the defect by repairing the goods; or
c) to an adequate discount on the purchase price.
When reporting any defect (i.e. complaint) or after reporting the defect without undue delay, the Buyer shall notify the Seller of the claim he/she has chosen. Until the Buyer exercises the right to a discount on the purchase price or withdraws from the Purchase Agreement, the Seller can deliver a missing thing or remove a legal mistake; other defects may be removed by repairing a thing or delivering a new thing based on the Seller’s choice; this choice must not result in inadequate costs to be borne by the Buyer. If the Seller does not remove the defect in question within a reasonable time or informs the Buyer of its intention not to remove the defect, the Buyer is eligible to require an adequate discount on the purchase price or is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. The Buyer shall not change the chosen claim without the Seller’s consent; this shall not apply if the buyer requires the Seller to have the defect repaired and then the defect turns out to be irreparable. If new goods are delivered, the Buyer shall return to the Seller at its own expense the original goods delivered to the Buyer. If the Buyer does not choose any of the above claims in due time, he/she is eligible to the same rights resulting from defective performance as in the case of immaterial breach of the Purchase Agreement. If the Buyer does not notify the Seller of any defect in due time, the Buyer shall be deprived of the right to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. Any defect shall be reported without undue delay after it can be detected by the Buyer if exercising sufficient care. Until any defect is removed, the Buyer does not have to pay the part of the purchase price that is adequate, by estimation, to the Buyer’s right to a discount. The Buyer is not eligible to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement, nor is he/she eligible to require the Seller to deliver a new thing if the Buyer is not able to return the thing in the same condition in which he/she received it. This shall not apply:
a) if a change of condition results from the inspection to detect a defective thing;
b) if the Buyer used the thing before discovering a defect;
c) if the impossibility to return a thing in unchanged condition was not caused by the Buyer’s action or omission; or
d) if the Buyer sold a thing before discovering a defect, consumed a thing or modified a thing in using it regularly; if any of the above only occurred partially, the Buyer shall return to the Seller every part possible and shall pay the Seller a compensation corresponding to the amount to which the Buyer benefitted from the use of the thing concerned.
If the goods do not possess the properties specified in Article 7.3 of the Business Terms, i.e. they are not free from defects pursuant to Article 7.2 of the Business Terms, the Consumer is eligible to require the Seller to deliver a new thing free from any defects, unless it is unreasonable with regard to the nature of the defect in question; if the defect only concerns a single component of the thing, the Consumer is only eligible to require the Seller to replace the component in question; if it is not feasible, the Consumer is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. Nevertheless, if it is inadequate considering the nature of the defect, especially if the defect can be removed without any undue delay, the Consumer is eligible to removal of the defect free of charge. The Consumer is also entitled to delivery of a new thing or replacement of a component in the event of any removable defect if the Consumer cannot use the thing due to the repeated occurrence of any defect after repair or due to a large number of defects. In this case the Consumer is also entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. If the Consumer does not withdraw from the Agreement or does not assert the claim for delivery of a new thing free from defects or replacement of a single component or repair of a thing, the Consumer is eligible to require an adequate discount. This shall also apply if the Seller is not able to deliver a new thing free from defects or replace a single component or repair a thing, or if the Seller does not make good any defect in a reasonable time or if making good any defect might cause considerable inconveniences to the Consumer. Nevertheless, the Consumer is not entitled to any claim resulting from defective performance if he/she knew before accepting the thing that the goods were defective or if the Consumer caused the defect himself/herself (see e.g. Article 7.11 of the Business Terms).
The material breach of the Purchase Agreement is any breach of obligation which the party concerned was aware of at the time of entering into the Purchase Agreement and must have known that the other party would not have entered into the Agreement if it had anticipated this breach. Any other manner of breach of the Purchase Agreement shall be deemed immaterial.
The “removable defects” are any defects that can be removed by repair and consequently the goods are free from any defects, i.e. such defects the removal of which will not worsen the original design, quality, function and utility properties of the goods, and their repair can be carried out in the prescribed time for handling complaints. The assessment of the character of any defect shall be conducted by the Seller.
The “irremovable defects” are any defects that do not enable the goods to be used as goods free from any defects, i.e. such defects that cannot be removed without worsening the original design, quality, function and utility properties of the goods and their repair cannot be carried out in the prescribed time for handling complaints. The assessment of the character of any defect shall be conducted by the Seller.
The liability for quality and the rights and duties resulting from defective performance are the subject-matter of obligation relationship between the Seller and the Buyer. This obligation relationship is established between the Seller and the Buyer and if the title to goods is transferred, the rights and duties mentioned above shall not devolve upon a new Buyer.
The Buyer is not entitled to have any defective goods removed by third parties and then require the Seller to pay the costs in connection with this procedure. When making any complaint, the Buyer is not entitled to suspend payment of the purchase price; the provision of Section 2108 of the Civil Code shall not expressly apply.
Beyond the scope of rights specified in the previous articles or agreed upon between the contracting parties, the Consumer is eligible to exercise the right resulting from defects of consumer goods after receiving the goods, within a period of time defined in legislation. If the product being sold, its packaging, the instructions for use or advertising, in compliance with any other regulations, includes the information about a period for which the thing can be used, the provisions of these Business Terms, the Agreement and legislation defining the quality guarantee shall apply. The provision mentioned above shall not apply:
a) to goods sold at a lower price due to any defect;
b) to wear and tear of goods caused by their regular use;
c) to any defect in used goods corresponding to the extent of use or wear and tear, which the goods had when received by the Consumer; or
d) if it results from the nature of goods.
The rights resulting from defective performance shall be exercised with the Seller. If the Consumer exercises the right resulting from defective performance, the other contracting party shall confirm in writing the date on which the Consumer exercised the right, the method of repair and time needed for this repair.
The Seller does not normally provide certificates of guarantee for the goods sold, nor any other document confirming the scope and period of the rights resulting from defective performance; to make a complaint, a receipt of the purchased goods shall be sufficient (e.g. an invoice or delivery note). Any other matters are governed by valid legislation.

Otherwise, the Buyer’s complaint may be rejected due to non-cooperation. The time for handling a complaint shall not commence until all missing documents are submitted.
The Seller is entitled to reject the goods which are the complaint subject-matter if the goods and/or their components are dirty or do not meet the essential hygienic requirements for the safe handover of goods for the purpose of the complaint procedure unless the level of dirt is regular.
The goods being the complaint subject-matter shall only be reviewed for the defects specified by the Buyer.
The Buyer understands that if he/she does not deliver the goods in question including all accessories received, then in the event of Buyer’s withdrawal from the Agreement the Buyer shall receive the purchase price value decreased by the price of accessories not delivered to the Seller.

The Buyer is entitled to the reimbursement of efficient costs associated with making a legitimate complaint. They shall be regarded as the minimum necessary costs. In particular, they include postage in connection with sending a complaint. The Buyer shall request for the reimbursement of costs without undue delay when the complaint is settled, but no later than one (1) month from termination of the period in which the Buyer is obliged to complain about any defect to exercise the rights resulting from defective performance.

The buyer acquires ownership of the goods at the time the goods are taken over or delivered, but only on the condition that the full purchase price is paid in full at this time. However, the risk of damage to the goods passes at the moment of its acceptance by the buyer or delivery to the buyer, if it has not passed earlier per the contract or these terms and conditions.
