Article L.211-4 of the Consumer Code : “ The seller is required to deliver goods in conformity with the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery. He is also responsible for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when this has been charged to him by the contract or has been carried out under his responsibility. » Article L.211-5 of the Consumer Code : To comply with the contract, the product must: 1 ° Be suitable for the use usually expected of a similar product and, if necessary: - correspond to the description given by the seller and possess the qualities which the latter presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model; - have the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect given the public statements made by the seller, the producer or his representative, especially in advertising or labeling; 2 ° Or have the characteristics defined by mutual agreement by the parties or be suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and which the latter has accepted. The SELLER is required to deliver a conforming PRODUCT, that is to say suitable for the expected use of a similar good and corresponding to the description given on the SITE. This conformity also presupposes that the PRODUCT has the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect in view of the public declarations made by the SELLER, including in advertisements and on labeling. In this context, the SELLER is liable for non-conformities existing at the time of issue and any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when it has been charged to him or has been carried out under his responsibility. The action resulting from the lack of conformity lapses two (2) years after delivery of the PRODUCT. (Article L.211-12 of the Consumer Code) In the event of a lack of conformity, the CUSTOMER may request the replacement or repair of the PRODUCT, at his choice. However, if the cost of the CUSTOMER's choice is manifestly disproportionate compared to the other possible option, taking into account the value of the PRODUCT or the importance of the defect, the SELLER may proceed to a refund, without following the chosen option by the customer. In the event that a replacement or repair would be impossible, the SELLER agrees to return the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days of receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the CUSTOMER to the following address: Euroservices Partner - Stock Brands Expert - 42 rue de l'Industrie - 67160 Wissembourg. . Finally, the CUSTOMER is exempt from providing proof of the existence of the lack of conformity of the PRODUCT during the six (6) months following the delivery of the goods. It is specified that this legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of the commercial guarantee granted, if any, on the PRODUCTS.   

         12.2. Hidden defects guarantee

The SELLER is bound by the guarantee for hidden defects of the PRODUCT sold which make it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which so diminish this use that the CUSTOMER has not acquired it, or has given it than a lower price, if he had known them. (Article 1641 of the Civil Code) This guarantee allows the CUSTOMER who can prove the existence of a hidden defect to choose between the reimbursement of the price of the PRODUCT if it is returned and the reimbursement of part of its price, if the PRODUCT is not returned. In the event that a replacement or repair would be impossible, the SELLER agrees to return the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days of receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the CUSTOMER to the following address: Euroservices Partner - Stock Brands Expert - 42 rue de l'Industrie - 67160 Wissembourg. The action resulting from latent defects must be brought by the CUSTOMER within two (2) years from the discovery of the defect. (Paragraph 1 of article 1648 of the Civil Code)
