LEGAL GUARANTEE AND CONFORMING DELIVERY
In accordance with Article L217-4 of the French Consumer Code, the seller delivers goods that conform to the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery. The seller is also liable for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly instructions or installation when the latter was made their responsibility under the contract or carried out under their responsibility.
Pursuant to Article L217-5 of the French Consumer Code, the goods conform to the contract:
-
If it is fit for the purpose usually expected of a similar good and, where applicable:
- if it matches the description given by the seller and possesses the qualities presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;
- if it possesses the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect given the public statements made by the seller, by the producer or by their representative, particularly in advertising or labelling
- Or if it has the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or is suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and accepted by the latter.
LEGAL GUARANTEE AGAINST LATENT DEFECTS
In accordance with Article 1641 of the French Civil Code, the seller is bound by the guarantee against latent defects in the item sold which render it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which diminish this use to such an extent that the buyer would not have acquired it, or would only have paid a lower price for it, had they known of them.
In the event of an action under the legal guarantee of conformity:
- Any action resulting from a lack of conformity is barred after (2) two years from delivery of the goods (Article L217-12 of the French Consumer Code).
- In the event of a lack of conformity, the buyer may choose between the repair and the replacement of the goods. However, the seller may choose not to proceed according to the buyer's choice if this choice involves a cost that is manifestly disproportionate with regard to the other method, taking into account the value of the goods or the significance of the defect. The seller is then required to proceed, unless impossible, according to the method not chosen by the buyer. (Article L217-9 of the French Consumer Code)
- Lacks of conformity that appear within (24) twenty-four months of delivery of the goods are presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise. (Article L217-7 of the French Consumer Code).
The legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of any commercial guarantee granted by BARNIE under the terms of Article 8 of these general terms and conditions of sale.

- The buyer has the choice to return the item and have the price refunded, or to keep the item and have part of the price returned, as determined by experts (Article 1644 of the French Civil Code).
- The action resulting from redhibitory defects must be brought by the purchaser within (2) two years of the discovery of the defect (Article 1648 paragraph 1 of the French Civil Code).
