RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL – RETURN OF PRODUCTS
Right of Withdrawal
We always try to offer our customers the finest products available. If, although, you feel that the products you received from us do not meet your expectations or if you just changed your mind, you have the right as a consumer to withdraw from the contract. More specifically, if you made a contract with us as a consumer online to buy our product(s), by placing an order through our online shop, you have the right to withdraw from the contract you made with us within fourteen (14) days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period will expire after fourteen (14) days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the goods (or last good, lot or piece if the order relates to goods or multiple lots or pieces delivered separately).

After receiving your package and checking that the products are in good condition and in accordance with the guidance provided herein, we will reimburse you the full amount paid for your order including the price of the products and the shipping cost within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date we were informed that you wish to withdraw from the contract. It may take a little more time for the reimbursement, in case we have not received on hand the returning Products yet. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
In cases of purchase of products with cash on delivery, the refund will be made through a deposit to the customer's bank account.

The amount we will refund you will not include the return costs (2,50€ for order deliveries within Greece, 12€ for EU and 15€ for UK), unless the return of the product is due to our fault (in case of defective products or non-compliance of delivered products with the ordered ones).
Please note that only Standard Shipping Cost is refunded. Moreover, if you have chosen Express Delivery when placing your order, you have to carry the shipping cost, as it is non-refundable.

Handling of the Products
You are liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods. Following receipt of the goods we retain the right to examine them. Should we come to the conclusion, by examining them in good faith, that the returned goods, despite dispatched as such, are no longer in a normal sellable condition due to your assumed use, we may detract from your reimbursement any costs related to bringing the goods back in a normal sellable condition.
Please note that we may refuse to reimburse you if, following inspection already mentioned above, we understand that the returned products are no longer fit for sale or the cost of reinstating them in a sellable condition exceeds the original price of the product.
Exceptions from the right of withdrawal
You cannot cancel a contract you made with us for the supply of sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons and were unsealed after delivery (for example, cosmetic products such as lipsticks). Please note that there are other exceptions from the right of withdrawal.
