The delivery of products available in our stocks is made (except imponderable due to sub-contracted transport):
- within two to four working days for mainland France.

In the case of delivery to a collection point, the Products will be available within 48 to 72 hours. For the collection of the order of the Products, a valid identity document will be required, as well as, if necessary, the bank card used for payment. Failing this, the Products ordered cannot be delivered to the Customer. The Products ordered will be kept for a period of eight (8) working days at the collection point and for a period of fourteen (14) working days at the post office and Chronopost relay station. Beyond this period, the order will be returned.
The Products are delivered to the collection point indicated by the Customer on the electronic order form.
Deliveries are made in metropolitan France, Monaco and Corsica only.
c. Delivery problems
In order for POGGIO to bear the responsibility of the products in case of damage, the customer will have to carry out the usual reserves with the carrier and will inform POGGIO's customer service within 3 days by :
- email : contact@poggio-solution.com
These reservations do not release the seller from his responsibility to the consumer. In application of article L.121-20-3 of the Consumer Code, the distance seller is automatically liable. He is therefore responsible for the proper execution of the contract. The consumer may take legal action against the seller without having to show the fault of other parties (carrier). The text establishes an obligation of result except in cases of force majeure or fault of the consumer.
Then, depending on the cases defined in article 11.c below, you can benefit from the conditions of exchange and reimbursement provided for this purpose.
For unclaimed parcels returned, for the reason "storage time exceeded", an amount of 10.00 € including tax corresponding to the return costs will be deducted from the amount of the refund.
d. Conformity of the products during the 14-day period upon receipt
POGGIO undertakes to refund or exchange a defective product or not corresponding to the order (shipping error, ...) when the customer has expressed the problem encountered on his order and his decision in relation to this within 14 days of receipt of the product.
In the case of a shipping error by POGGIO, we thank you for contacting our customer service, in writing, and detailing the problems encountered.
In case of POGGIO's error, POGGIO will take care of the return of the product to our premises upon request.
Outside metropolitan France, please contact our customer service. After agreement and if necessary (POGGIO's delivery error), the shipping costs will be refunded on the basis of the basic rate for simple shipping. The provisions of this article do not prevent you from benefiting from the right of retraction (satisfied or reimbursed) provided for in article 13.
Any cancellation made outside this 14-day period following receipt will not be accepted if it does not concern a problem related to a manufacturing defect. In the case of a product return, the product must be returned in new condition (without any marks or scratches), in the original packaging with all the elements delivered (accessories, packaging, instructions, etc.).
In the event of non-conformity of the material ordered, you now have the possibility of returning the goods ordered without having to move.
e. Delivery delay
The customer will be informed as soon as possible by email of a delivery postponement.
In the event of a delay in delivery compared to the date initially set, the customer will have to notify POGGIO in writing (email), in order to improve the quality of service and to allow POGGIO to make an enquiry with the carrier. In the case of delivery by the Post Office, an investigation may take up to 21 days. If during this time the product is found, it will be immediately re-routed to the customer's home or to the addressee designated in the order form. On the other hand, if the product ordered is not found at the end of this 21-day investigation period, POGGIO will proceed at its own expense with a new shipment of the customer's order.
We remind you that, in accordance with article L. 216-2 of the French Consumer Code, you have the option of cancelling the sales contract by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt if the delay exceeds 14 days and is not due to a case of force majeure.
12. Professional VAD: delivery order
a. Delivery - Transport
Delivery shall be deemed to have been made as soon as the carrier has taken delivery of the material from our warehouse or our suppliers' factories. The risks and responsibility for the equipment sold therefore take place as soon as the said takeover takes place, even in the case of carriage paid delivery. The equipment is only insured on express instruction and at the expense of the buyer. In all cases, it is of course the responsibility of the buyer to carry out all checks, to make all reservations on arrival of the equipment and to exercise, if necessary and within the statutory time limits, any recourse against the carrier. Claims must be made by registered letter to the carrier and to POGGIO within 3 days of receipt of the goods. Failing this, the right to claim will cease to be acquired. Any request for a cancelled voucher, as proof of delivery, will be invoiced at a flat rate of 20 € HT.
In accordance with article L. 133-3 of the French Commercial Code, you have a period of three days to inform the carrier of your complaints. In order to ensure maximum reactivity in dealing with the problem you encounter, we advise you to notify all problems directly on the delivery note (for example: damaged package, already opened, ...) and to send it to POGGIO within 3 days of receiving the product.
b. Delivery time
Delivery times start to run from the moment the order is taken. Taking into account the possibility of personalisation of certain products, these delivery times are given as an indication without commitment. Consequently, a delay cannot justify the cancellation of the order, nor give rise to compensation or penalties. The fact that the customer postpones the delivery dates initially planned is not likely to modify the invoicing under the conditions and dates initially planned.
c. Return
POGGIO accepts the return of goods under certain conditions and the customer will have to comply with the procedure put in place.
The request for return must be made within fifteen working days of receipt of the material at the latest. The customer must contact POGGIO's quality department by email at contact@poggio-solutions.com. The customer will receive by e-mail a number and a non-conformity form on the return procedure, which must be attached to the package.
All parcels must be sent exclusively to the following address: POGGIO SOLUTIONS - 854, Avenue du Campon, 06110 Le Cannet, France, together with the non-conformity form provided by POGGIO's quality department.
Returned material must be in a strictly new condition in its original packaging, the packaging and transport costs for both outward and return journeys are the responsibility of the customer. Products not included in the catalogue cannot be taken back by POGGIO under any circumstances. Any return of merchandise following an error or responsibility of the customer will result in the return of the said merchandise at 75% of the price invoiced for restocking costs. In the event of non-conformity of the material ordered, you now have the possibility of returning the goods ordered without having to go to the store.

14. Warranties and spare parts
- Manufacturer's warranty
This guarantee is applicable to all professionals for all products present on this site. This guarantee will not be opposable to consumers (individuals) but it may constitute an element of information on the minimum durability expected of the product in application of the 3rd paragraph of article L 217-7. The manufacturer's guarantee period displayed on the product sheet starts on the delivery date of the initial order without renewal of this period in the event of an exchange within the framework of this one.
Duration of the guarantee: POGGIO-SOLUTIONS guarantees the product for 24 months from the date of purchase. This warranty is an additional document and can in no way replace your legal rights. This warranty does not cover products intended for rental. Any part found to be defective due to a defect or manufacturing defect will be replaced. Under no circumstances will the warranty give rise to any reimbursement or compensation whatsoever, whether direct or indirect. Furthermore, this guarantee does not cover: accessories and consumables, misuse of the product, damage caused by a fall, use for professional purposes and postage and packing costs for the return of the appliance; the latter remain the responsibility of the customer. Any item sent for repair with postage due will be refused. The guarantee will be automatically cancelled if the product has been modified without the manufacturer's consent or in the event of the use of accessories not authorised by the manufacturer. The latter declines all civil liability deriving from improper use of the machine or use that does not comply with the instructions, adjustment and maintenance. Warranty assistance will only be granted if the request is addressed to the authorised after-sales service with proof of purchase. Immediately after purchasing the product, we advise you to check that the product is undamaged and to read the instructions carefully before use.

Article L 217-4 of the Consumer Code
The seller is obliged to deliver goods in conformity with the contract and is liable for any defects in conformity existing at the time of delivery. It is also liable for defects of conformity resulting from packaging, assembly instructions or installation when this was made at its expense by the contract or was carried out under its responsibility.
Only consumers - i.e. any natural person who has purchased a product for a use which is not within the scope of his commercial, industrial, craft or liberal activity - can benefit from this legal guarantee. Thus, products purchased which are referred to in an invoice indicating the VAT registration number of a company or professional are not covered by this legal guarantee.
POGGIO takes care of...
The consumer shall be entitled to obtain from POGGIO the repair or replacement free of charge of the defective product, unless the choice requested is objectively impossible or constitutes a manifestly disproportionate cost in relation to other modalities, taking into account the value of the product, the nature of the lack of conformity and the possibility of implementing alternative solutions without major inconvenience to the consumer.
Where the replacement of the product is impossible or constitutes a manifestly disproportionate cost or involves an unreasonable delay or causes major inconvenience to the consumer, the consumer shall have the right to obtain a full or partial refund in exchange for the product.
Where the consumer is acting as a legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer shall :
- has a period of 2 years from the delivery of the good to act;
- can choose between repair or replacement of the good, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L 217-9 of the Consumer Code ;
- is exempted from having to provide proof of the existence of the lack of conformity of the goods during the 24 months following delivery of the goods, except for second-hand goods.
The legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of any commercial guarantee that may have been granted.
The consumer may decide to implement the guarantee against hidden defects of the thing sold within the meaning of Article 1641 of the Civil Code and in this case, he may choose between cancellation of the sale or a reduction of the sale price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.
- Warranty against hidden defects
Consumers and non-specialist professionals who have purchased a product are concerned by this guarantee. POGGIO may be held liable when a defect that is not visible (i.e. is not likely to be discovered by reasonable inspection by the buyer) renders the product unfit for its intended use or so diminishes its usefulness that the buyer, if he had known about the defect, would not have acquired the product or would not have acquired it at the purchase price (Article 1641 of the Civil Code).
The costs of returning the product are borne by POGGIO. If the expertise carried out by POGGIO confirms that there is indeed a hidden defect, you will be reimbursed in full. The action resulting from redhibitory defects must be brought by the purchaser within two years of the discovery of the defect (Article 1648 paragraph 1 of the Civil Code).

In case of dispute with a professional customer, the Commercial Court of Cannes is the only competent court. Our conditions of sale cease to apply if, at the time of a previous order, the professional customer has evaded his obligations. A refusal to sell will then be validly opposed, unless the professional provides satisfactory guarantees or payment with the order. In the latter case, it is specified that no discount will be granted.
In the event of disputes with a private individual
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a dispute with an individual, the French courts shall have sole jurisdiction:
The competent court shall be that of the place of residence of the defendant or that of the place of actual delivery of the item if it is located in France.
