1. This Complaints Procedure has been drawn up in accordance with Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, as amended (hereinafter the "Civil Code"), and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection, as amended, and applies to goods purchased through the online shop at www.hunter-deco.cz.

3. As proof of warranty, the Seller issues a proof of purchase (invoice) for each item purchased, containing all statutory details required for making a warranty claim.


II. Seller's Liability for Defects

1. The Seller is liable to the Buyer that the goods are free from defects upon receipt. In particular, the Seller warrants that the goods:

  • b) are fit for the purpose for which the Buyer requires them and to which the Seller has agreed,

III. Warranty Period

1. The Buyer may report a defect that manifests itself on the goods within 24 months of receipt.

2. If a defect manifests itself within 12 months of receipt, it is presumed that the goods were defective at the time of receipt, unless the nature of the goods or the defect precludes this. This presumption facilitates the Buyer's exercise of rights arising from defective performance.

3. For used goods, the warranty period may be reduced to 12 months, provided this reduction is expressly stated in the product description and in the purchase contract.

4. The warranty period does not run during the time the Buyer cannot use the goods if they have legitimately reported the defect.

5. The warranty period is extended by the duration of any warranty repair.
