6.5. The buyer has the right to withdraw from the Contract, respectively to return a Good or to give up a Service, within 14 calendar days, without citing any reason and without incurring costs other than those of delivery. Thus, according to GEO no. 34/2014, the period for returning a Good or giving up a Service expires within 14 days from:
– the day on which the Buyer takes physical possession of the last Good – if the Buyer orders multiple products in a single order that will be delivered separately
– the day on which the Buyer takes physical possession of the last Good or the last part – in case of delivery of a product consisting of several lots or parts

6.6. If the Buyer decides to withdraw from the Contract, he will be able to notify his wish to ale.uiuiu@mentale.ro.

6.7. If the Customer/Buyer requests withdrawal from the Contract within the legal term of withdrawal from the contract, he must also return any gifts that accompanied the respective product. If the Order is paid, the Seller will reimburse the amount within a maximum of 14 (fourteen) days from the date the Buyer informs the Seller of his decision to withdraw from the Contract. The amount will be returned as follows:
6.7.1. for Orders paid by bank card -> by refund to the account from which the payment was made or by generating a voucher with the value of the returned product;

6.8. The Seller will be able to delay refunding the amount until he receives the Goods sold or until he receives proof that they have been dispatched, if he has not offered to collect the Goods himself (the later date will be taken).

6.9. If the Good is returned in a condition in which it can no longer be sold as new (open packaging, missing accessories, the Good is damaged), we reserve the right to request a fee for returning the Good to its original state, as the case may be, or for to cover the price difference resulting from the sale of the product as resealed or, at the Buyer’s request, we will resend the Good, the delivery costs being borne by the Buyer.

Decreasing the value of returned Goods

Since, in the case of distance sales, the Buyer does not have the opportunity to check the Goods before the conclusion of the contract, he has the right to withdraw from the contract. For the same reason, the Buyer is allowed to test and verify the Goods it has purchased to the extent necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and mode of operation of the Goods.

In order to determine the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods, the Buyer must handle and inspect them in the same manner as he would be permitted to do in an actual physical store. For example: The buyer only needs to try on a garment, not wear it on various occasions.

The Buyer is only responsible for the diminution in value of the Goods resulting from manipulations other than those necessary to determine the nature, qualities and functioning of the Goods.

If the Buyer exercises the right of withdrawal after having used the Goods to an extent that exceeds the limit necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and mode of operation, the Buyer is responsible for any decrease in the value of the Goods.

The accessories (user manuals, CDs, cables, etc.) in the Good’s box as well as its original packaging are an integral part of the Good. As a result, we recommend the Buyer, when exercising his right of withdrawal from the contract, to return it in the original undamaged packaging, protected by wrapping with stretch plastic packaging film or packed in a cardboard box (without labels stuck on it, without cuts, tears, etc. ) and together with all its accessories.

Returned goods that show signs of wear (stains, scratches, bends, cracks, bumps, etc.) are accepted for return only after bringing them into compliance, involving the costs of sanitizing, beautifying, repairing, replacing any damaged parts and bringing them to a commercial form for sale as a Refurbished / Resealed product. The final value is determined by the value of the parts to be replaced and the reconditioning labor or as the difference between the initial value of the new product and the resale value of the used product.

Any diminution in the value of the Goods resulting from their handling other than those necessary to determine the nature, qualities and functioning of the Goods is the responsibility of the Buyer. For clarity, from the total price of the returned Good, the Seller will withhold an amount of money representing the decrease in the value of the Good in the proportion of 5%-50% of the initial value of the Good, as the case may be. The value of the reduction fee will be communicated to the Buyer upon receipt of the returned Goods.

6.10. In the event that a Good and/or Service ordered by the Buyer cannot be delivered by the Seller, the latter will inform the Client/Buyer of this fact and return to the Buyer’s account the consideration for the Good and/or Service, within maximum 7 (seven) days from the date on which the Seller became aware of this fact or from the date on which the Buyer expressly expressed his intention to terminate the Contract.

6.11. The availability of a Good will be displayed on the Site as follows:

  • „in stock” – we have more than 3 pieces in mental stock
  • „limited stock” – we have less than 3 pieces in mental stock
  • „in supplier stock” – The good is not available in mental stock. If you register an Order for a Good that has „supplier in stock” on its right, one of our sales consultants will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of the availability of the Good.
  • „to order” – The good is not available in the mental stock and for the moment we have no information about its availability in the supplier’s stock. But, if you register an Order for a Good that has „on order” in its title, one of our sales consultants will check the availability of the product in the supplier’s stock and will contact you to inform you of the availability of the Good.
  • „pre-order” – The good is not available in the mental stock nor in the supplier’s stock. But, if you place an order for a Good that has „pre-order” in its right, one of our sales consultants will check the supply time of the supplier and will contact you to inform you of the availability of the Good.
  • „out of stock” – The good is no longer available in the mental stock
  • „currently unavailable” – at the moment we cannot purchase the Good because it is not in the supplier’s stock.
