VII. Rights from defective performance

1. The seller is liable to the buyer for the goods being free of defects upon receipt. In particular, the seller is liable to the buyer that at the time the buyer received the goods:

  • the goods have the characteristics agreed by the parties and, in the absence of an agreement, the characteristics described by the seller or the manufacturer or those expected by the buyer in view of the nature of the goods and on the basis of the advertising performed by them,
  • the goods are suitable for the purpose stated by the seller for their use or for the purpose for which goods of this type are normally used,
  • the goods conform in quality or design to the agreed sample or specimen, if the quality or design was determined according to the agreed sample or specimen,
  • the goods are in the appropriate quantity, measure, or weight and meet the requirements of the legal regulations.

2. The seller's obligations from defective performance are at least to the extent that the manufacturer's obligations from defective performance persist. Otherwise, the buyer is entitled to assert the right to a defect that occurs in consumer goods within twenty-four months of receipt.

3. If a period for which the goods may be used is indicated on the sold goods, their packaging, instructions attached to the goods, or in advertising in accordance with other legal regulations, the provisions on the quality guarantee shall apply. By the quality guarantee, the seller undertakes that the goods will be fit for normal use for a certain period of time or will retain their usual characteristics. If the buyer rightfully complained to the seller about a defect in the goods, the period for asserting rights from defective performance and the warranty period shall not run during the period in which the buyer cannot use the defective goods.

4. The provisions in the previous paragraph of the terms and conditions do not apply to goods sold at a lower price for a defect for which the lower price was agreed, to wear and tear of the goods caused by their normal use, in the case of used goods to a defect corresponding to the level of use or wear that the goods had upon receipt by the buyer, or if it follows from the nature of the goods. The buyer is not entitled to rights from defective performance if the buyer knew before receiving the goods that the goods had a defect, or if the buyer themselves caused the defect.

5. In the event of a defect, the buyer may submit a complaint to the seller and request:

  • replacement with new goods,
  • repair of the goods,
  • a reasonable discount from the purchase price,
  • withdrawal from the contract.

6. The buyer has the right to withdraw from the contract:

  • if the goods have a substantial defect,
  • if the buyer cannot properly use the item due to a recurring occurrence of the defect or defects after repair,
  • in the case of a larger number of defects in the goods.

7. Substantial is a breach of contract which the breaching party already knew or must have known at the conclusion of the contract that the other party would not have concluded the contract if it had foreseen this breach.

8. For a defect that constitutes a non-substantial breach of contract (regardless of whether it is a removable or irremovable defect), the buyer is entitled to the removal of the defect or to a reasonable discount from the purchase price.

9. If a removable defect occurs repeatedly after repair (usually a third complaint for the same fault or a fourth for different faults) or if the goods have a larger number of defects (usually at least three defects at the same time), the buyer has the right to claim a discount from the purchase price, exchange of the goods, or to withdraw from the contract.

10. When making a complaint, the buyer is obliged to inform the seller which right they have chosen. A change of choice without the seller's consent is possible only if the buyer requested the repair of a defect that turns out to be irremovable. If the buyer does not choose their right from a substantial breach of contract in time, they have the same rights as in the case of a non-substantial breach of contract.

11. If repair or replacement of the goods is not possible, on the basis of withdrawal from the contract the buyer may demand a refund of the purchase price in full.

12. If the seller proves that the buyer knew about the defect before receiving the goods or caused it themselves, the seller is not obliged to satisfy the buyer's claim.

13. The buyer cannot file a complaint about discounted goods on the grounds for which those goods are discounted.

14. The seller is obliged to accept the complaint at any premises where the acceptance of complaints is possible, or at the registered office or place of business. The seller is obliged to issue a written confirmation to the buyer of when the buyer asserted the right, what is the content of the complaint, and what method of handling the complaint the buyer requires, as well as confirmation of the date and method of settlement of the complaint, including confirmation of the repair carried out and its duration, or a written justification for the rejection of the complaint.

15. The seller or an employee authorised by them shall decide on the complaint immediately, in complex cases within three working days. This period does not include the time appropriate for the type of product or service required for expert assessment of the defect. The complaint, including the removal of the defect, must be handled without undue delay, no later than within 30 days from the date the complaint was made, unless the seller and the buyer agree on a longer period. Failure to comply with this deadline is considered a substantial breach of contract, and the buyer has the right to withdraw from the purchase contract. The moment the complaint is made is considered the moment when the buyer's expression of will (assertion of the right from defective performance) reaches the seller.

16. The seller will inform the buyer in writing of the result of the complaint.

17. The buyer is not entitled to rights from defective performance if the buyer knew before receiving the item that the item had a defect, or if the buyer caused the defect themselves.

18. In the case of a justified complaint, the buyer is entitled to compensation for reasonable costs incurred in connection with making the complaint. The buyer may exercise this right with the seller within one month after the expiration of the warranty period; otherwise, the court may not award it.

19. The choice of method of complaint rests with the buyer.

20. The rights and obligations of the contracting parties regarding rights from defective performance are governed by Sections 1914 to 1925, 2099 to 2117, and 2161 to 2174 of the Civil Code and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection.

21. Further rights and obligations of the parties related to the seller's liability for defects are regulated by the seller's complaint procedure.
