8.1 After the products are returned, the vendor will carry out the necessary checks regarding the conformity of the products to the terms and conditions indicated in paragraph 7. If the outcome of these checks is positive, customer service will send you an email confirmation that your returned products have been accepted. If the outcome of these checks is not positive, customer service will notify you, via email, of the diminished value of the returned products as a result of your failure to observe the conditions set out in paragraph 7.3.

8.2 Regardless of the payment method used, the refund, whether full or partial, is activated by the vendor as soon as possible once it has been verified that you have correctly exercised your right of withdrawal and once the returned products have been checked.
8.3 The vendor will complete the refund using the same payment method used by you for purchasing the returned items, unless you have expressly agreed upon a different payment method with the vendor and provided that you will not incur further charges as a consequence of the refund. Where the recipient of the products indicated on the order form and the person who carried out the payment of the necessary amount for their purchase differ, the refund, if the right of withdrawal is exercised, will be carried out by the vendor, in any case, to the person who made the payment.
8.4 The value date of the credit is the same of that of the debit; therefore you will not suffer any loss in terms of bank interest.
