Warranties
19. Complying with art. 128 and Decree 6th September 2005 n. 206, there is a 24-month warranty for private Customers, while there is a 12-month warranty for purchases placed by professionals with VAT numbers.
Such a warranty can be applied to products with lack of compliance, if the product has been used in the correct way, according to its purpose use and to what is reported in the attached technical files. Parts subject to wear and tear are warranty-free.
Warranties do not apply to products which have been tampered, taken to pieces or fitted for uses different from the product features or according to the manufacturer’s parameters. In case assistance is needed under warranty, but without the product original intactness, I Ricambi della Vespa reserves the right to analyze the product before changing or fixing it.
Replacements in case of non-working on delivery products only happen if they are explicitly stated by the manufacturer. The period for the product change or fixing depend exclusively from the manufacturer’s policy. No damages can be charged to I Ricambi della Vespa for possible delays about changes or fixing up.
It is necessary to log in with your personal data to get assistance in the Customer area in the www.ricambi-vespa.it website, clicking on Assistance. Then, it is possible to select the chosen item to ask for assistance and contact I Ricambi Della Vespa’s staff. Any non-authorized goods arrival will be peremptorily declined.
When the warranty calls for the product return, the item has to be returned by the Customer in its original parcel, with all its parts, (including packaging, documentation and accessories such as handbooks); we recommend to put the item in a secon parcel to limit further damages, avoiding to use labels and adhesive tape on the original parcel. The lack of the original packaging means that the product is not complete and this will not allow the change or the fixing up of the same item.
In case of lack of compliance, I Ricambi della Vespa provides for the compliance restoration of the product (without any additional charges for the Customer) through fixing or change or price reduction, for the contract resolution. In case the flaw is not caused by a lack of compliance, after a check made by an Authorized Assistance Center (complying with Decree 24/02) the Customer will be charged with the check and restoration costs requested by the Authorized Assistance Center and with the transportation costs, if paid by I Ricambi della Vespa.
If, for any reasons, it isn’t possible to return a product under warranty to the Customer (restored or replaced), I Ricambi della Vespa will be able to suggest the return of the total amount of money paid by the Customer or, at its own discretion, the replacement with a product with same or superior characteristics.
