In case of damages, theft, or loss of the product(s) during transportation, TMOV will immediately communicate it to the Client, in order to allow him/her to promptly report the fact to the relevant Courier and subsequently request the relevant reimbursement.

The product(s) purchased on the Website is covered by the legal guarantee of conformity for goods in accordance with the Art. 128 – 135 of the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree No 206/2005). In accordance with this guarantee, the supplier is responsible to the consumer regarding any lack of conformity that is existing at the moment of the delivery of the goods, and that is not due to the inappropriate use of the goods.
The seller shall be held liable where the lack of conformity becomes apparent within 2 years as from delivery of the goods. The consumer must inform the supplier regarding the lack of conformity by no later than 2 months after the date on which he/she discovered it. In the case of defective goods, the Client shall immediately communicate the anomaly to TMOV by email at: customercare@themerchantofvenice.it. In the email must be specified the product code (available in the Order), the type of defect, and a photograph (where possible)showing the anomaly.
In the case of a lack of conformity, the supplier shall (without any extra charge to the Client, and where it is not possible or is too expensive to perform the remedies of reparation or replacement) replace, repair or handle the consumer goods, reimburse the price paid, or dissolve the contract of sale. Repair shall mean, in the event of lack of conformity, bringing the consumer goods into conformity with the contract of sale. A small defect, for which it is not possible or is too expensive to perform the remedies of reparation or replacement, does not entitle the Client the right to dismiss the contract of sale.
Actions intended to enforce the lack of conformity shall in any event lapse after 26 months from delivery of the goods.
