General

Our Upcycling } products consist of used textiles. If one of our products gets a defect, we provide the following warranty under certain conditions, in addition to the statutory warranty to which the consumer is entitled against the seller.

The company SecondPlus GmbH, Zur Wörthspitze 13, 76726 Germersheim, grants the consumer a limited warranty for the Upcycling products sold by it under the following conditions and to the extent described below. The warranty granted shall apply without prejudice to mandatory statutory liability provisions.

Consumer in the sense of this warranty statement is any natural person who is the owner of the product and has not purchased it for commercial purposes.

Scope of warranty

The warranty conditions apply exclusively within the Federal Republic of Germany and the European Union. The warranty applies to all Upcycling Products purchased on or after 07/29/2021 (proof of purchase). The company SecondPlus Ltd. guarantees that its Upcycling products have been sewn professionally and do not have any defects based on a sewing error. Claims arising from product liability exist only in accordance with the statutory provisions. Within the scope of this warranty, defects that are demonstrably due to a sewing error will be repaired.

All Upcycling Products have a warranty period of 6 months from the date of purchase of a product. If the product is already defective upon delivery in its unworn condition, this must be reported to our customer support immediately upon receipt of the product. This will then arrange for a replacement delivery to be sent.

Defects that occur after the product has been worn can be claimed via our complaint form. Upcycling Products older than 6 months are in principle excluded from the warranty. We provide this warranty by means of free repair of the defects that are due to a sewing defect within the warranty period. The repair of these defects is done by repairing the product or by a replacement product that differs from the product in the original order.

Double entries in our complaint form regarding the identical product of an order number cannot be processed, likewise if no meaningful picture was attached.

SecondPlus GmbH reserves the right to make an alternative refund or partial refund of the purchase price. The services described herein are in addition to and do not replace or limit the statutory warranties. This warranty is a voluntary and not legally binding service of SecondPlus GmbH, which can be denied at any time without giving reasons.

The guarantee shall apply without prejudice to mandatory statutory liability provisions.
