ARTICLE 6 – WARRANTY

LEGAL GUARANTEE OF CONFORMITY
All products purchased through our online shop enjoy the legal guarantee of conformity provided for by articles 128 et seq. of the Consumer Code to be paid by the seller, i.e. Taurus Store.
The conformity of the goods is presumed if: a) the goods are suitable for the typical use for which they are intended; b) correspond to the description made by the seller and the qualities that he presented; c) have normal quality and performance for a good of the same type, or in any case those that the consumer can expect, taking into account the nature of the good and the public declarations made in this regard by the seller and the manufacturer, in particular in advertising or on labelling ; d) are suitable for the particular use that the consumer wanted to make of it and of which he informed the seller (art. 129 of the Consumer Code).
The existence of a lack of conformity is also excluded if the consumer knew it at the time of purchase or could not have ignored it with ordinary diligence or, again, if it derives from instructions or materials provided by the consumer.
The seller is liable in accordance with the law for defects in conformity existing at the time of delivery of the goods and has the remedies provided by the Consumer Code available.
In particular, the art. 130 of the Consumer Code provides that
“3. The consumer can ask the seller, at his choice, to repair the good or replace it, without costs in both cases, unless the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively onerous compared to the other.
4. For the purposes referred to in paragraph 3, one of the two remedies is to be considered excessively onerous if it imposes unreasonable costs on the seller compared to the other, taking into account: a) the value that the goods would have if there were no lack of conformity; b) the extent of the lack of conformity; c) the possibility that the alternative remedy can be used without significant inconvenience for the consumer.
5. Repairs or replacements must be carried out within a reasonable period of time from the request and must not cause significant inconvenience to the consumer, taking into account the nature of the goods and the purpose for which the consumer purchased the goods.
6. The expenses referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 refer to the costs necessary to bring the goods into conformity, in particular with reference to the expenses incurred for shipping, labor and materials.
7. The consumer may request, at his/her choice, an appropriate price reduction or termination of the contract where one of the following situations occurs: a) repair and replacement are impossible or excessively onerous; b) the seller has not repaired or replaced the goods within the appropriate period referred to in paragraph 5; c) the replacement or repair previously carried out has caused significant inconvenience to the consumer.
8. When determining the amount of the reduction or the sum to be refunded, the use of the property is taken into account.
9. After reporting the lack of conformity, the seller can offer the consumer any other available remedy, with the following effects: a) if the consumer has already requested a specific remedy, the seller remains obliged to implement it, with the necessary consequences in order upon the expiry of the appropriate deadline referred to in paragraph 5, unless the consumer accepts the proposed alternative remedy; b) if the consumer has not already requested a specific remedy, the consumer must accept the proposal or reject it by choosing another remedy pursuant to this article.
10. A minor lack of conformity for which it has not been possible or is excessively burdensome to carry out repair or replacement remedies does not give the right to terminate the contract".

The operating methods for asserting the legal guarantee of conformity are as follows: the customer must send the product and the documentation proving the purchase directly to Taurus Srl whose staff will provide the necessary assistance in relation to the specific case.
The staff of Taurus Srl generally makes use of specialized technical assistance centers for repairs on the products sold by it or for assessing the conditions for their replacement under warranty, without prejudice to the fact that, as a seller, it always remains directly responsible of the provision of the legal guarantee.
