4.1. If the customer is a consumer (that is, a natural person who purchases goods for purposes not related to their professional activity, or does not make the purchase indicating so in the order form to the Scalzo company), they have the right to withdraw from the purchase contract.
To exercise this right, the customer must send a communication to the Scalzo company within 10 working days from the date of receipt of the goods. This communication must be sent by registered letter with return receipt, addressed to: Garofalo Carmelina, C/da Pallone – 87050 Marzi (CS), or by telegram or fax sent within the said 10-day term and followed by a confirmation by registered letter with return receipt sent within the following 48 hours.

4.2. The right of withdrawal is subject to the following conditions:
a) the right applies to the product purchased in its entirety; it is not possible to withdraw only part of the purchased product;
b) the purchased item must be intact and returned in the original packaging, complete in all its parts;
c) shipping costs related to the return of the item are borne by the Customer;
d) shipment, until the certificate of receipt at the seller's warehouse, is under the full responsibility of the Customer;
e) in case of damage to the item during transport, the Scalzo company will notify the Customer of the event (within 5 working days from receipt of the item in its warehouses), to allow them to promptly file a claim against the chosen courier and obtain reimbursement of the item's value (if insured); in this case, the product will be made available to the Customer for its return, simultaneously canceling the withdrawal request;
f) the Scalzo company is not responsible in any way for damage or theft/loss of goods returned by uninsured shipments;

a) the absence of the external packaging and/or original internal wrapping;
