- the Customer provides Diffusione Tessile S.r.l with the product in question, together with the original packaging, and
- the numbered seal of warranty placed on the article during quality control prior to shipment is still present and intact on the product.

In this case, Diffusione Tessile S.r.l will notify refusal of the return via e-mail, indicating where to collect the product.


9. Right of withdrawal and product return

The Customer may exercise the right of withdrawal contemplated by article 64 of the Consumer Code. It is in the interest of Diffusione Tessile S.r.l for the Customer to be able to exercise this right of withdrawal in the best possible conditions.

The Customer may exercise the right of withdrawal within 20 (twenty) calendar days of the order delivery date, as certified by the shipper and indicated using the methods shown on http://www.marella.com in the "Returns" section, where the conditions and actions necessary for exercising this right and the times, methods and any costs of the return operation are also indicated.
Within 10 (ten) calendar days of the withdrawal request as indicated above, the Customer may therefore return the products in the same conditions in which they were received, according to the instructions on http://www.marella.com in the "Pristine conditions” section.
Return is considered as having taken place when:
- the articles being returned have been delivered to the express shipper, if the Customer has decided to use the goods return methods arranged by Diffusione Tessile S.r.l;
- the articles being returned have been delivered to personnel authorised by Diffusione Tessile S.r.l at the address and in the times communicated to the Customer, if the Customer decides to arrange return independently.

If the right of withdrawal is exercised in accordance with the above conditions, the value of the returned products, equivalent to their purchase price, will be refunded to the Customer within 30 (thirty) calendar days, starting from the date when Maxima S.r.l. has received the withdrawal request and, in any case, within 10 (ten) business days of the goods being returned.

A Customer who has used one of the product return procedures indicated in the "Returns" section is fully entitled to a refund of the price paid and may ask for the amount to be credited onto the credit card or into the PayPal account used to make payment.

It remains understood, in all cases, that, according to the requirements of article 67 of the Consumer Code (Legislative Decree no. 206 of 6 September, 2005), the product being basically in pristine conditions is an essential requirement for the Customer to exercise the right of withdrawal. If the products returned by the Customer are damaged, incomplete, deteriorated and/or used in a manner which does not correspond with normal diligence, such as not to be in pristine conditions, they will not be refunded.


10. Product replacement for a size and/or colour change

Diffusione Tessile S.r.l offers its Customers the possibility of replacing the product purchased remotely through http://www.marella.com with an identical product, and therefore solely and exclusively the same model with a different size and/or colour, if the replacement request is sent within a maximum of 20 (twenty) calendar days from receipt of the product, using the methods and in the times indicated in the "Returns" section of the website, where the conditions and actions necessary for exercising this option and the methods and any costs of the return operation are also indicated.
Within a maximum of 10 (ten) calendar days from the above communication, the Customer may therefore return the products for replacement, in the same conditions as when they were delivered, according to the instructions on http://www.marella.com in the "Pristine conditions" section.

As specified in said section, according to requirements indicated as "Pristine Conditions", any products the Customer wishes to replace but which lack the numbered seal of warranty placed on the article prior to delivery or which are deteriorated, damaged and/or used in a manner which does not correspond with normal diligence will not be replaced.


11. Conformity - Warranty

In guaranteeing conformity of the products purchased, legal warranties are also applicable to sale of the Maxima S.r.l. products governed by these general terms.

The legal articles concerning Customers’ rights with Diffusione Tessile S.r.l in the case of non-conformity of the products delivered and methods of applying them are indicated below:

« Article 129 of the Consumer Code:

1. The seller is required to deliver to the consumer products which conform with the contract of sale.

2. It is presumed that the consumer products conform with the contract if, where pertinent, the following circumstances co-exist: a) they are suitable for the normal use of goods of the same type; b) they conform with the description provided by the seller and possess the qualities of the good which the seller presented to the consumer as a sample or model; c) they have the normal characteristics and performance of a good of the same type, which the consumer may reasonably expect, taking into account the nature of the good and, if necessary, the public declarations on the specific characteristics of the goods made in this regard by the seller, the manufacturer or their agent or representative, particularly in advertising or on labelling; d) they are also suitable for the specific use intended by the consumer, as indicated by them to the seller in concluding the contract and which the seller has accepted, including for concluding facts.

3. There is no non-conformity if, on concluding the contract, the consumer was aware of the non-conformity in question or could not be unaware of it with normal diligence or if the non-conformity derives from the instructions or materials provided by the consumer.

4. The public declarations indicated in paragraph 2, letter c), are not binding on the seller when, including alternatively, it demonstrates that: a) it was not aware of the declaration and could not have discovered it using normal diligence; b) the declaration has been appropriately corrected by the moment when the contract is concluded, so that the consumer could be aware of it; c) the decision to purchase the consumer good was not influenced by the declaration.

5. Non-conformity deriving from incorrect installation of the consumer good is equivalent to non-conformity of the good when installation is included in the contract of sale and has been performed by the seller or under its responsibility. This equivalence is applied even when the product, designed to be installed by the consumer, has been installed by them incorrectly due to deficient installation instructions.»

« Article 130 of the Consumer Code:

1. The seller is liable to the consumer for any non-conformity existing at the moment of delivery of the good. 2. In the case of non-conformity, the consumer is entitled to have conformity of the good restored, at no expense, through repair or replacement, in accordance with paragraphs 3, 4, 5 and 6, or to a suitable reduction in price or termination of the contract, in accordance with paragraphs 7, 8 and 9. 3. The consumer may, at their own discretion, ask the seller to repair the good or replace it, at no expense in both cases, unless the remedy requested is objectively impossible or excessively expensive compared with another one. 4. For the purposes indicated in paragraph 3, a remedy is considered as excessively expensive if the seller sustains unreasonable costs compared with another one, taking into account: a) the value the good would have without the non-conformity; b) the extent of the non-conformity; c) the possibility of using the alternative remedy without any serious inconvenience for the consumer. 5. Repairs or replacement must be performed within a congruous time from the request and must not cause any serious inconvenience to the consumer, taking into account the nature of the good and the purpose for which the consumer has purchased it.

6. The costs indicated in paragraphs 2 and 3 refer to essential costs for restoring conformity of the goods, particularly with reference to the costs sustained for shipment, labour and materials.

7. The consumer may request, at their own discretion, an appropriate reduction in the price or termination of the contract in the following situations: a) repair and replacement are impossible or excessively expensive; b) the seller has not repaired or replaced the product within the congruent time indicated in paragraph 6; c) repair or replacement previously performed has caused serious inconvenience to the consumer.

8. Use of the good is taken into account in determining the amount of the reduction or refund.

9. After a non-conformity has been reported, the seller may offer the consumer any other remedy available, with the following effects: a) if the consumer has already requested one specific remedy, the seller is required to implement it, with the necessary consequences concerning the congruous period of time indicated in paragraph 6, unless the consumer accepts the alternative remedy proposed; b) if the consumer has not already requested a specific remedy, the consumer must accept the proposal or reject it and choose another remedy in accordance with this article.

10. A slight non-conformity for which repair or replacement is impossible or excessively expensive does not entitle the consumer to terminate the contract. »

«Article 132 of the Consumer Code:

1. The seller is liable, in accordance with article 130, when the non-conformity appears within two years of delivery of the good.

2. The consumer forfeits the rights according to article 130, paragraph 2, if they fail to report the non-conformity to the seller within two months of its discovery. Reporting the non-conformity is unnecessary if the seller has recognised or concealed its existence.

3. Unless proved otherwise, it is presumed that non-conformities which occur within six months of delivery of the good already existed at that date, unless this is incompatible with the nature of the good or with the nature of the non-conformity.

4. An action for recognition of defects not intentionally concealed by the seller may only be brought within twenty-six months of delivery of the good; a consumer who is ordered to fulfil the contract may nonetheless invoke the rights indicated in article 130, paragraph 2, provided that the non-conformity has been reported within two months of discovery and before expiry of the time-limit indicated in the previous sentence. »

The Customer must report any non-conformity discovered to Diffusione Tessile S.r.l using the methods indicated on http://www.marella.com in the "Returns" section, where the conditions and the actions necessary for requesting replacement or a refund and the methods and any costs of the return operation are also indicated.
