In the event of lack of conformity, the BUYER shall choose between repair and replacement of the product. The SELLER may nevertheless elect not to proceed in accordance with the BUYER’s choice if that choice gives rise to a manifestly disproportionate cost compared with the other option given the value of the product or the seriousness of the defect. The SELLER will in this case be able to proceed with a reimbursement without proceeding with the BUYER’s choice.

If neither repair nor replacement of the product is possible, the SELLER must return the full PRODUCT price and shipping costs (with the exception, however, of additional costs resulting, when applicable, from the BUYER's choice of a delivery method other than the standard delivery method offered by the SELLER) within 30 days after retrieval of the product in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the BUYER to the following address: COKIN KT s.a.s.u. 32 rue du Jura - CS10326 - 94633 Rungis Cedex, France

The SELLER will proceed with the reimbursement using the same payment method the BUYER completed the order with.

The BUYER will not be required to prove the existence of a lack of conformity of the PRODUCT during the six (6) months following the delivery of the goods. The action resulting from the lack of conformity shall be barred after two (2) years from the delivery of the PRODUCT.

This legal conformity guarantee applies independently of the commercial guarantee granted, if any, on the PRODUCTS.

Article 12.2. Latent defects guarantee

The SELLER is bound to a warranty on account of the latent defects of the PRODUCT which render it unfit for the use for which it was intended, or which so impair that use that the BUYER would not have acquired it, or would only have given a lesser price for it, had he known of them.

This guarantee let the BUYER chose between a refund of a PRODUCT, in full if the PRODUCT is returned or partially if the PRODUCT is not returned, provided he can prove there is a latent defect.

If neither repair nor replacement of the product is possible, the SELLER must return the full PRODUCT price within thirty (30) days after the retrieval of the PRODUCT in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the BUYER to the following address: COKIN KT s.a.s.u. 32 rue du Jura - CS10326 - 94633 Rungis Cedex, France.
