Upon receipt of the Products, the Customer must immediately check their conformity with the order. All claims relating to an inaccuracy in quantities or an erroneous reference in relation to the order must be made to Refabz within two days of receipt of the Products, without neglecting recourse against the Carrier under the conditions of article 9 hereof. After this period, no further claims of this type will be possible.
If the complaint proves to be well-founded and has been lodged within the aforementioned time limit, Refabz will endeavour to rectify the situation as quickly as possible in conjunction, where appropriate, with the manufacturers concerned.
12.1.2
In the case of non-conformity of the Products themselves (i.e. defective Products), the warranty provided for in ARTICLE 13 - shall apply in accordance with the procedure set out in this article and in articles 12.2 and ARTICLE 14 - hereof.
12.1.3
In the event of any claims, the Customer shall make it easy for the Constructors or Refabz to ascertain any claims and provide them with any useful information/documents on first request.

Upon receipt of the Customer's return request, Refabz will either agree to the return of the Product by means of an "RMA voucher" or will give reasons for its refusal to take back the Product, which will then be sent to the Customer.
When returning Products, the Customer must attach the RMA slip to the returned Products, which must be clearly visible on the outside of the returned package.
13. Legal and commercial warranties
All products sold are covered by the legal warranty against hidden defects (articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code), and by the legal warranty of conformity (articles L217-3 to L217-20 of the French Consumer Code). In addition, we apply our commercial guarantee (articles L217-21 to L217-24 of the French Consumer Code).
13.1. Legal warranties
Consumers have a period of two years from the date of delivery of the goods in which to invoke the legal warranty of conformity in the event of a lack of conformity. During this same period for new goods, and for a period of twelve months for second-hand or reconditioned goods, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity, and not the date of its appearance.
Where the contract for the sale of goods provides for the supply of digital content or a digital service on a continuous basis for a period of more than two years, the legal warranty applies to this digital content or digital service throughout the period of supply. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity affecting the digital content or service, and not the date of its appearance.
The legal warranty of conformity entails an obligation on the part of the trader, where applicable, to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the good.
The legal warranty of conformity entitles the consumer to repair or replace the good within thirty days of his request, free of charge and without any major inconvenience for him.
If the good is repaired under the legal warranty of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial warranty.
If the consumer requests repair of the good, but the seller imposes replacement, the legal warranty of conformity is renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the good.
The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the good, or terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund against return of the good, if :
1° The professional refuses to repair or replace the good;
2° The repair or replacement of the good takes place after a period of thirty days;
3° The repair or replacement of the good causes a major inconvenience for the consumer, in particular when the consumer definitively bears the costs of taking back or removing the non-conforming good, or if he bears the costs of installing the repaired or replacement good;
4° The non-conformity of the good persists despite the seller's unsuccessful attempt to bring it into conformity.
The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to rescission of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify immediate reduction in the price or rescission of the contract. In this case, the consumer is not obliged to request repair or replacement of the goods beforehand.
The consumer is not entitled to have the sale rescinded if the lack of conformity is minor.
Any period during which the goods are immobilized for repair or replacement suspends the warranty remaining until delivery of the repaired goods.
The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the French Consumer Code.
Any seller who, in bad faith, obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of average annual sales (article L. 241-5 of the French Consumer Code).
Consumers also benefit from the legal guarantee against hidden defects under articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the good is kept, or to a full refund in exchange for the return of the good.
13.2. Refabz commercial warranty
13.2.1 Definition
The Refabz commercial warranty in no way replaces or limits the customer's rights under the aforementioned legal warranties. It applies in addition to the rights enjoyed by the consumer and non-professional customer under the legal warranty of conformity.
The Refabz commercial warranty applies free of charge to all products or parts marketed by Refabz.
The duration of the commercial warranty for each product or part is specified on the product sheet. It is either 6 months or 12 months from delivery, depending on the product or part.
The customer may extend the duration of the Refabz commercial warranty for a further 12 months via a paid commercial warranty extension to be selected when purchasing the product.
Under the commercial warranty, Refabz undertakes to provide the Customer with :

- Free return of the product if it is defective, via a prepaid return label sent to the customer by Refabz ;
- Repair or replacement of the defective product (or part) within 3 working days of receipt by Refabz. Refabz will bear the cost of shipping the repaired product.
Any part fitted during a repair under the commercial warranty will benefit from the warranty remaining on the product, except for parts for which a shorter warranty period is expressly specified on the product data sheet.
Any replaced part becomes the property of Refabz.
13.2.1 Exclusions from the commercial warranty
The Refabz commercial warranty is excluded in the following cases.
- When the product has suffered damage due to an accidental event (oxidation, impact, deterioration and damage caused by dropping or mishandling, vandalism, etc.),
- When the product has suffered damage due to abnormal use (infection by a malicious program, use of peripherals or consumables, presence of foreign bodies in the device, poor storage, negligence, connection or handling errors, etc.),
- When one or more product components have been manipulated by the customer or a vendor not authorized by Refabz (design or configuration modification, repair or replacement of parts),
Normal wear and tear is not covered by warranty.
14. Product returns
14.1 Accepted returns
No returns will be accepted after a period of one (1) month from the date of Refabz's express prior agreement on the RMA form.
Product returns accepted by Refabz will give rise, in accordance with the manufacturer's after-sales service procedures or at Refabz's sole discretion, to a repair, replacement or credit note, the amount of which will be equal to the amount initially invoiced.
We will not be able to support any device locked by a session password, iCloud, Microsoft or Google account.
In the particular case of an accepted credit claim, the primary packaging of the equipment to be returned must be unopened and :
- without any markings or labels, especially for transport,
- carefully overwrapped in a suitable secondary carton.
Any returned Product not complying with these requirements will systematically give rise to a refusal of credit on receipt.
In the case of advanced exchange (before return of the defective Product), the Customer must return the defective Product within the aforementioned period. After this period, an invoice for the amount of the exchanged item will be automatically generated.
The return of a functional product to the customer follows the Incoterms conditions of the initial order, with regard to its financial and insurance coverage.
14.2. Returns not accepted
If Products are returned without Refabz's express prior consent, they will be systematically refused and returned to the sender at the sender's expense. In this case, the corresponding invoice will of course be paid on the due date. The risks relating to Products returned without Refabz's express prior agreement shall be borne by the Customer. The present 14.2 shall apply in the case of returns made after the deadline. If the Customer fails to pay the costs stipulated in article 13.5.1.2 within 30 days in the event of exclusion of the warranty, storage costs will be invoiced where applicable. After reminder by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, Refabz may proceed with the destruction of equipment not removed within one month. No compensation of any kind whatsoever may be claimed by the Customer from Refabz.
15. Sponsorship
Refabz authorizes the Customer to sponsor friends to become Customers of https://www.ma-fabrik.fr/.
The sponsorship must be made between two distinct physical or moral persons. Refabz reserves the right to refuse a sponsorship without justification.
Sponsorship can only be used for the first order, with no minimum purchase. Therefore, if the credit is not fully used on the first order, the remaining credit cannot be carried over to another purchase and will be lost.
The credit obtained through Refabz sponsorship, for both sponsored and sponsored customers, is only applicable to the price of the products. Shipping costs cannot be covered by the credit.
The credit is expressed in VAT.
16. Liability
The products offered by Refabz comply with current French legislation.

17. Partial invalidity
If one or more stipulations of these general terms and conditions of sale are held to be invalid or declared as such in application of a law, regulation or following a final decision by a competent court, the other stipulations will retain all their force and scope.
