Article 2 – DELIVERY

2.1 Delivery Times

Delivery times are provided for informational and indicative purposes only. However, ATEL endeavors to comply with the times indicated on the order acceptance. Any delay in relation to the scheduled delivery times shall not justify cancellation of the accepted order, nor give rise to payment to the customer concerned of penalties, damages or compensation.

2.2 Risks

Delivery is made either by direct handover of the items to the purchaser, or by delivery of the items to a carrier. Direct handover of the items to the purchaser or delivery thereof to a carrier immediately results in transfer of risks to the purchaser.

In the event of damaged goods or missing items, it is the customer's responsibility to make all necessary reservations with the carrier. These reservations must be confirmed by extrajudicial act or by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to the carrier within three days following the date of receipt of the goods.

2.4 Receipt

Without prejudice to the steps to be taken by the customer with respect to the carrier as described in Article 2.3 in the event of apparent defects or missing items, any claim of any nature whatsoever concerning the delivered items will only be accepted by ATEL if it is received in writing by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within eight days following receipt of the goods. It is the buyer's responsibility to provide all supporting evidence regarding the reality of the defects or missing items noted.

2.5 Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with the provisions of Article L.121-16 of the Consumer Code, the consumer has a period of 7 working days (from the day of receipt of the items) to return, at their own expense, the product(s) that do not suit them. Any return must be reported in advance to ATEL, by telephone at 03 22 41 33 00, or by email at info@atel-attelage.com or dutilloy.francois@wanadoo.fr indicating your contact details, the subject of your claim and the reference of your order.
