Terms and Conditions of Sale

1. SCOPE OF APPLICATION

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale exclusively govern the contractual relationship between the customer, as a user of the online platform, and PPT Peças.

Browsing the platform, as well as purchasing any product through it, implies acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

PPT Peças reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions without prior notice and undertakes to publish any changes on www.pptpecas.com.

2. CONTENT AND PRICES

The prices displayed on our platform are shown in euros and include applicable taxes and charges. Depending on the purchase and shipping options selected, transport costs shall be borne by the customer and added to the final order amount.

Despite our efforts when entering and maintaining website content, PPT shall not be held responsible for errors in prices, technical information or product descriptions displayed on the online platform.

When an order is prepared, PPT Peças checks the prices of all products ordered. If the price of a product does not correspond to the stated price, the customer will be notified and may choose either to pay the difference or cancel the order without any penalty.

3. SHIPPING COSTS

Depending on the purchase and shipping options selected, transport costs shall be borne by the customer and added to the final order amount.

This service requires someone to be present to receive the delivery. If delivery cannot be completed for this reason, an additional cost will be charged to the customer for scheduling a new delivery attempt. This amount will be equal to the original shipping cost.

This delivery service is available on business days only.

Upon receipt, all goods must be checked at the time of delivery. If there is visible damage to the outside of the packaging, the order should be refused without being opened, and the relevant reservations or observations must be recorded accurately.

If damage or shortages are not recorded by means of precise, complete, dated and signed reservations on the delivery document, neither PPT nor the carrier shall be held responsible for damage to or loss of unchecked goods.

The recipient’s signature, as well as any reproduction thereof, constitutes proof of delivery of the order, and both parties acknowledge that such signature has the same evidential value as a traditional handwritten signature on paper.

Any proof of delivery must be requested by the customer from our carrier.

For further information on shipping costs, please refer to: Shipping Costs.

4. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

Peças Lda. undertakes to comply with the estimated delivery times for an order, provided that the relevant products are available in stock.

The average delivery time for an order, after registration and receipt of the corresponding payment, is 5 (five) business days. However, depending on the availability of certain products, PPT Peças may not be able to guarantee delivery within the intended timeframe.

Any delay in relation to the estimated delivery time shall not give rise to any right to compensation.

All shipments will be made on business days only, excluding weekends and public holidays.

5. CANCELLATIONS AND RETURNS

Failure to pay for an order within 3 (three) days following the date on which it was placed will result in its cancellation.

The customer may cancel an order while it is still being processed without any penalty. To do so, the customer must send an email to exemplo@email.com stating their intention to cancel and indicating the relevant order number.

From the date of receipt of the order, the customer may exercise the statutory right of withdrawal in accordance with the applicable legal provisions set out below, in particular Decree-Law No. 24/2014 of 14 February.

The customer is entitled to exercise the right of withdrawal within a maximum period of 14 days from:

a) The day on which the consumer, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by the consumer, acquires physical possession of the goods, in the case of sales contracts; or:

I. The day on which the consumer, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by the consumer, acquires physical possession of the last item, where several goods are ordered by the consumer in a single order and delivered separately;

II. The day on which the consumer, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by the consumer, acquires physical possession of the last lot or item, where the goods consist of several lots or items;

III. The day on which the consumer, or a third party indicated by the consumer other than the carrier, acquires physical possession of the first item, in the case of contracts for the regular delivery of goods over a specified period.

In order to exercise the right of withdrawal, the customer must inform PPT Peças of the decision to withdraw from the contract by means of an unequivocal statement, for example by letter sent by post, email or fax.

The customer may also complete the withdrawal form (RMA) or submit any other unequivocal statement of withdrawal through our website at www.pptpecas.com.

To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient for the communication concerning the exercise of the right of withdrawal to be sent to PPT Peças before the withdrawal period expires.

In the event that the customer exercises the right of withdrawal, all payments received will be refunded, including delivery costs, except for any additional costs resulting from the customer’s choice of a delivery method other than the least expensive standard delivery option offered by us.

The refund will be made without undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the date on which PPT Peças is informed of the decision to withdraw from the contract.

PPT Peças will issue the refund using the same means of payment used by the customer for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise by the customer. In any event, the customer will not incur any fees as a result of such refund.

PPT Peças may withhold the refund until the returned goods have been received or until the customer provides proof that the goods have been sent back, whichever occurs first.

The refund will only be processed after the condition of the product has been checked.

All costs associated with returning the goods as a result of exercising the right of withdrawal must be borne entirely by the customer, as well as handling charges corresponding to 15% of the value of the goods.

The customer shall be liable for any depreciation in the value of the goods resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.

There is no right of withdrawal in the following cases:

Supply of goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalised;

Supply of goods which, after delivery and by their nature, become inseparably mixed with other items.

For returns, products will only be accepted under the following conditions:

All items will be inspected upon arrival at our premises, and only items that comply with the return conditions will be accepted for exchange or return.

The customer must return the goods without undue delay and no later than 14 days from the date on which PPT was informed of the decision to withdraw from the contract.

The deadline shall be deemed to have been met if the customer returns the goods before the 14-day period has expired.

If the return is rejected due to failure to comply with the return conditions, collection of the goods will be the customer’s responsibility. The customer will have a maximum period of 15 business days to collect the goods.
