Modalities for exercising the right of withdrawal The exercise of the right of withdrawal by the Customer entails no penalty and does not need to be motivated.
The Customer wishing to exercise their right of withdrawal is invited to contact fabien.lenaour@antifer.fr.
The modalities for exercising the right of withdrawal are as follows: For bulky and/or fragile Products, delivered via a specialized carrier courier (hereinafter the "Courier") or those delivered by Parcel Service, the Customer must contact ANTIFER to organize the return of the Product. For a return from home, the Courier will make an appointment with the Customer and then check at their home that the Product is in new condition and returned in its original packaging. The Product must bear no trace of use and must be accompanied by its accessories and any user or assembly manuals. If these conditions are met, the Courier will proceed with the recovery of the Product. ANTIFER will transparently communicate the price grid of 2 options for the return (i.e., Colissimo or DHL).
ANTIFER will proceed with a quality control of the Product at the warehouse. The Products must imperatively be in new condition, returned in their original packaging, without any trace of use, be accompanied by their accessories and any user or assembly manuals. Only after verifying that these conditions are satisfied will ANTIFER proceed with the refund of the sums received for the returned products. If the mentioned conditions are not met, the Customer's refund will be reduced by the amount corresponding to the loss of value of the Product, noted during the check.
Once the Products are returned in compliance with the procedure described above, the refund (not including the initial shipping costs of the Product) will be made within a maximum of 14 (fourteen) days following the date of receipt by ANTIFER of the returned Products. Beyond this term, these sums produce interest at the legal rate. Return costs are always borne by the Customer. Throughout the procedure, the Customer will be informed by email of the receipt of their wish to withdraw, the return of their package, as well as the refund date.
The refund of the Customer will be made by the means of payment used during the order, unless agreed otherwise with the Customer. If the means of payment differs from the means used initially, it must be in the same name as the invoice relating to the product(s).
9. LEGAL AND COMMERCIAL WARRANTY 9.1. Legal Warranties The Products sold by ANTIFER are subject to the legal warranty conditions provided for by Articles L217-4 to L217-14 of the Consumer Code as well as by Articles 1641 to 1648 of the Civil Code, to the exclusion of all other warranties: These legal warranties apply independently of the commercial warranty referred to in Article 12.2.
Legal guarantee of conformity (L217-4 to L217-14 of the Consumer Code): ANTIFER will deliver to you a Product strictly in accordance with the contract and exempt from defects of conformity upon delivery of said Product, in the sense that the Product will be fit for the use usually expected of a similar good and that it will present the characteristics described during the sale. ANTIFER is also liable for lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly instructions, or installation when this has been charged to it by the contract or was carried out under its responsibility. This guarantee will only apply on the condition that you make the request within two years from the delivery of the good. Lack of conformity that appears within a period of twenty-four (24) months from delivery is presumed to exist at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise. You can choose between the repair and replacement of the Product unless one of these choices is impossible or entails a manifestly disproportionate cost for ANTIFER, in which case ANTIFER may choose the other solution. Furthermore, in the event of a serious lack of conformity, you may have the price paid returned and return the Product or keep the Product and have a part of the price returned. The repair, replacement, or refund of the Product will take place at no cost to you and does not prevent the possible allocation of damages should you be entitled to them.
Legal guarantee against hidden defects (Art. 1641 to 1648 of the Civil Code): ANTIFER will provide you with a Product exempt from hidden defects that would make it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or that so diminish this use that you would not have acquired it, or would have given only a lesser price for it, had you known of them. This guarantee will only apply on the condition that you make the request within two (2) years from the discovery of the defect and in any case within five (5) years from the date of purchase. In the event of a hidden defect, you will have the choice to return the Product and have the price and costs occasioned by the sale returned or to keep the Product and have a part of the price returned. In all cases, it will be up to you to prove that you fulfill the conditions of the guarantee. In the event of a lack of conformity and hidden defects, you must return the Products to ANTIFER by contacting our Customer Service.
ANTIFER undertakes to guarantee the conformity of its products within the meaning of Articles L211-4 and following of the Consumer Code and to replace or refund any item presenting a hidden defect (Articles 1641 and following of the Civil Code). To be in conformity with your order, the good must correspond to the description given on the Site and possess the qualities presented or present the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect regarding the public statements made by the seller, by the producer, or by their representative, particularly in advertising or labeling. In accordance with Article L211-11 of the Consumer Code, return costs will be refunded, upon proof, after the return of the product if the lack of conformity is confirmed. The Customer is therefore invited to keep the proof of their return. Failing this, if the Customer does not attach their proof, they will be refunded at the basic postal rate for sending a package. The provisions of this article do not prevent the Customer from benefiting from the right of withdrawal mentioned above.
Generally, and subject to the warranty provisions appearing above, our furniture is guaranteed for 2 years. The Commercial Warranty applies only to the benefit of the initial purchaser of the product acting as a consumer, to the exclusion of successive purchasers of the Product.
The Commercial Warranty applies only upon presentation of the invoice or the delivery note or any document attesting to the proof of purchase of the Product.

In case of doubt regarding the coverage of the claim by the Commercial Warranty, ANTIFER may be led to proceed with a physical examination of the Product. An appointment will then be agreed upon with customer service to proceed with the collection of the Product, and the examination of the Product will be carried out within thirty (30) days following its receipt by ANTIFER.
An email justifying ANTIFER's decision will be sent to the customer, whether it is a rejection or an acceptance.
