Returns and right of withdrawal

Returns

  • The product is defective or has been damaged during transport:
    If the product is defective, the Buyer can return it with all its accessories, with Cervezas Althaia covering the shipping costs generated by the delivery of the product and its return. Cervezas Althaia will proceed to resend the repaired or replaced product, completely free of charge. If the product has been damaged during transport, the Buyer must notify me within a maximum period of 24 hours from receiving the product and note the incident on the carrier's delivery note. When receiving the order, before opening the package, the Buyer must verify that the packaging is in good condition. If the Buyer observes any anomaly before opening the product, I ask that they do not open the seal or packaging of the product. Cervezas Althaia provides the Buyer with my transport company for the collection of the goods, free of charge. If the Buyer wishes to return the goods with a transport company other than that proposed by Cervezas Althaia, and the transport company selected by the buyer offers higher rates, the buyer will assume the difference in transport cost.
  • The product does not reach its destination or does not match the description I publish:
    If the purchased product does not reach its destination, Cervezas Althaia will fully refund the money to the Buyer. If upon receiving the product the Buyer observes that it does not match the description I publish in my online store, Cervezas Althaia will proceed with a full or partial refund. To do this, the Buyer must contact Cervezas Althaia by phone at 605591288 or by email at info@althaiaartesana.com to process the return of the order.

If the customer has returned a product based on an alleged defect or error in the merchandise, and it is finally determined that no such defect or error exists, the return costs will be borne by the customer.

Withdrawal

The Buyer may also exercise their right of withdrawal within a maximum period of fourteen (14) calendar days from receipt. The refund of the purchase amount will be made once the condition of the merchandise has been verified and will be processed through the same payment method used for the order and, in any case, within a maximum of 14 calendar days from the reliable receipt of the request for withdrawal, provided that Cervezas Althaia manages the collection of the item. If the buyer returns the item through a transport company of their choice, the 14-day period will begin to run from the moment Cervezas Althaia has effective knowledge of the shipment of the merchandise or, failing that, from the receipt of the item.

The Buyer will assume the decrease in value of the goods resulting from handling them in a manner different from that necessary to establish their nature, characteristics or functioning. In this regard, Cervezas Althaia will analyze the condition of the product for which the right of withdrawal has been exercised, and in the appropriate cases, will reliably communicate to the Buyer the existence and amount of this depreciation in the price of the product, justifying it in all cases on objective and verifiable criteria.

As indicated in article 103, paragraphs d) and g) of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 of November 16, the right of withdrawal may not be exercised with respect to goods that may deteriorate or expire rapidly, nor with respect to the supply of alcoholic beverages whose price has been agreed at the time of entering into the sales contract and which cannot be delivered within 30 days, and whose real value depends on market fluctuations that the entrepreneur cannot control. In addition, in the case of Cervezas Althaia, the following cases are taken into account for which withdrawal is not viable:

  • g) The supply of alcoholic beverages whose price has been agreed at the time of entering into the sales contract and which cannot be delivered within 30 days, and whose real value depends on market fluctuations that the entrepreneur cannot control.

The return costs derived from exercising the right of withdrawal will be borne by the buyer. The Buyer may exercise their right of withdrawal by sending the following form by email to info@althaiaartesana.com:
