Article 5: Delivery and execution of the agreement

Unless otherwise agreed or expressly provided, goods will be delivered to the Customer’s residence within 30 days of receipt of the order.

Any visible damage and/or qualitative shortcoming of an item or other shortcoming in the delivery must be reported by Customer to Casa Astrid without delay.

The risk due to loss or damage shall pass to the Customer as soon as he (or a third party designated by him, who is not the carrier) has taken physical possession of the goods. However, the risk already passes to Customer upon delivery to the carrier, if the carrier was commissioned by Customer to transport the goods and this choice was not offered by Casa Astrid.

Article 6: Retention of title
The delivered goods remain the exclusive property of Casas Astrid until full payment by the client.

The Customer undertakes, if necessary, to inform third parties of Casa Astrid’s retention of title, e.g. to any person who may come to seize items that have not yet been paid for in full.

Article 7: Right of withdrawal
The provisions of this article apply only to Customers who, in their capacity as consumers, purchase items online from Casa Astrid.

The Customer has the right to withdraw from the contract within a period of 14 calendar days without giving reasons.

The withdrawal period shall expire 14 calendar days after the date on which the Customer or a third party designated by the Customer, who is not the carrier, takes physical possession of the good.”

To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer must inform Casa Astrid, Predikherenlei 12, 9000 Ghent, astrid@Casa Astrid.be by an unequivocal statement (e.g. written by post or e-mail) of its decision to withdraw from the agreement. The Customer may use the model withdrawal form for this purpose, but is not obliged to do so.

“The Customer may forward the model withdrawal form or any other clearly worded statement via the contact form on our website www.casa-astrid.com/contact. If the Customer makes use of this option, we will immediately send the Customer an acknowledgement of receipt of his withdrawal on a durable data carrier (e.g. by e-mail).”

In order to comply with the withdrawal period, the Customer must send his communication regarding his exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Customer must return or hand over the goods to Casa Astrid, Predikherenlei 12, 9000 Ghent, without delay and in any event no later than 14 calendar days from the day on which it notified Casa Astrid of its decision to revoke the agreement. The Customer is on time if it returns the goods before the 14 calendar day period has expired.

The direct cost of returning the goods shall be borne by the Customer.

If the returned product is in any way impaired in value, Casa Astrid reserves the right to hold Customer liable and claim damages for any impairment of the goods resulting from Customer’s use of the goods beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and operation of the goods.

Only items that are in their original packaging, along with all accessories, instructions for use and invoice or proof of purchase can be returned.

In case Customer revokes the agreement, Casa Astrid will refund all payments received from Customer up to that point, including the standard delivery costs, to Customer within a maximum of 14 calendar days after Casa Astrid has been informed of Customer’s decision to revoke the agreement. For sales contracts, Casa Astrid may wait to refund until it has received all of the goods, or until Customer has demonstrated that it has returned the goods, whichever comes first.

Any additional costs resulting from Customer’s choice of a delivery method other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by Casa Astrid will not be refunded.

Casa Astrid will refund Customer using the same means of payment with which Customer made the original transaction, unless Customer has expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, Customer will not be charged for such refund.

The Customer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal if the packaging of the goods has been opened and the good therefore shows signs of use.
