When does the legal warranty of conformity apply?
The legal guarantee of conformity applies to all products sold by basket4ballers. It is free of charge.
According to French legislation, a lack of conformity occurs when :
- ✔️ the Good is unfit for the use usually expected of a similar good (for example, for a basketball shoe, the impossibility of playing with it).
- ✔️ the Good does not correspond to the description given by the seller, even if it functions perfectly (for example, the color of the item shipped does not correspond to the model presented),
- ✔️ the Good does not possess the qualities advertised by the seller (for example, the cushioning technology of a basketball shoe is not as advertised and does not have the same characteristics),
- ✔️ the Good presents a manufacturing defect, an imperfection, a bad assembly present at the origin.
basket4ballers cannot be held responsible for normal wear and tear of the products, as basketball is a contact sport, nor for misuse and/or intensive use of the items by the Customer.
Thus, cases of normal wear and tear and purely cosmetic damage are not covered by the legal warranty of conformity.
Examples:
❌ A snag on the collar of the shoe, with no impact on the fit of the pair.
❌ A tear in the shoe's mesh, with no impact on the pair's fit.
❌ Progressive wear of the outsole
❌ A fading of the color of a material as a result of rubbing
❌ A loss of material with no impact on the pair's technical properties as a result of friction.
