    • the goods do not correspond to the special use that the user is looking for, contrary to what the seller says
    • the goods have a manufacturing defect, an imperfection, a bad assembly

    • when he or she was aware of the defect at the time of entering into the contract;
    • when he or she could not have been unaware of the defect at the time the contract was concluded;

    10.4 LIMITATIONS

    Awakning jewelry has made the choice not to have a repair service for the moment. This decision was taken in accordance with article L. 217-9 of the French consumer Code, which allows us to avoid disproportionate costs that in our case would be reflected in the price of our jewelry. Thus, any request for repair will be considered as a request for replacement.

    If Awakning Jewelry is not able to replace the item, the Customer will be refunded the price of the item and its possible shipping and customs charges. More information about refund in article 10.10 Potential Refund of the Order.

    When Awakning Jewelry is in possession of an element that attests that the defect could not have existed at the time of delivery, the company will remind the Customer of its existence in order to prove the ineligibility for the legal guarantee of conformity.

    10.5 PROCEDURE LEGAL GUARANTEE OF CONFORMITY

    In order to assert his right for this guarantee, the Customer must send his request to the Customer service. The Customer must provide in its request the following elements:

    • His order number
    • Mentions that he/she wants to make use of the legal guarantee of conformity
    • The name of the product concerned

    Awakning Jewelry will process the request as quickly as possible. Please note that in order to ensure that the product is eligible for the legal guarantee of conformity, the company may ask you to provide photos/videos of the item.

    If the Customer's request is made less than 30 days after delivery (60 days during the Christmas season), the company will send a new product without waiting for the non-compliant product to be returned.

    If the time limit has been exceeded, a new product can only be sent after the item in question has been received by our company to ensure that it is nonconforming.

    Any shipment of a new product under this warranty will be the responsibility of the company.

    10.6 RETURN DELAY

    We recommend that our Customer return the affected item within 14 days of return approval. The sooner the product is received, the sooner Awakning will ship a new product.

    10.7 RETURN SHIPPING COST

    Return shipping costs remain the responsibility of Awakning Jewelry. The Customer will have to anticipate them, transmit a proof of the expenses he/she has exactly paid to Awakning in order to be reimbursed. However, the amount will be limited to a maximum amount corresponding to the standard cost of a similar package tracked by mail.

    10.8 RETURN PROCEDURE

    Reminder: Any return made by the Customer must be agreed upon in advance with the Customer Service.

    For each return, the Customer must simply provide the order number with the item(s) involved. The best option is to provide the order receipt with the item(s). If Customer is unable to provide this receipt, Awakning Jewelry will accept any other document or personal note that clearly mentions the order number.

    If the Customer requests a partial refund, the cost of the refund will be determined by Awakning through the photo(s)/video(s) provided by the Customer and the company will refund the Customer as soon as possible, within 14 days.

    If the Customer has requested a full refund, the Customer will be asked to return the product for a second inspection necessary to determine the defect. If the defect is proven, Awakning will proceed as soon as possible with a full refund to the Customer within the 14-day limit.

Courts must consider the utility or futility of the transaction, the importance or size of the protected person's assets, and the good or bad faith of those with whom he or she has contracted. The action belongs only to the protected person and, after his death, to his heirs. The action shall be extinguished by the delay of five years as set forth in Article 1304."

    Quoted in the "6.5 RIGHT OF REFUSAL":

    Consumers shall only bear the direct costs of returning the goods, unless the professional accepts to take them at its own expense or if it has failed to inform the consumer that such costs are not to be paid by them. Nevertheless, for off-premises contracts, when the goods are delivered to the home of the consumer when the contract is entered into, the professional shall recover the goods at its expense if they cannot be sent back normally by post due to their nature.
    Consumers may only be held liable in the event of damage to the goods as a result of handling other than that necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and proper functioning of the goods, provided that the trader has informed the consumer of his or her right of withdrawal, in accordance with point 2 of Article L. 221-5.”
