This reflection period starts on the day after the consumer receives the product or a representative designated by the consumer and announced to Commaxx BV in advance.

8.2

During the reflection period, the consumer will handle the product and packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to determine the nature, characteristics, and operation of the product. The starting point here is that the consumer may only handle and inspect the product as he would be allowed to do in a store.

The consumer is only liable for any depreciation of the product resulting from a way of handling the product that goes beyond what is permitted in article 8.2.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us, Commaxx BV, of your decision to withdraw from the agreement by means of an unequivocal statement. You can use the attached withdrawal form for this purpose. To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient to send your communication regarding your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired. When the consumer wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to do so within 30 days, after receipt of the product, to notify Commaxx BV. The consumer can notify this by using our return program. After the consumer has made known that he wishes to make use of his right of withdrawal, the consumer must return the product within 30 days. The consumer must prove that the goods have been returned on time, for example by means of proof of dispatch. Returns can also be reported via the model withdrawal form. Download the model form.

If the customer has not indicated within the periods mentioned in the preceding paragraphs of this article that he wishes to make use of his right of withdrawal, the purchase is a fact.

In the event of damage to the product due to careless handling by the consumer himself, the consumer is liable for any depreciation of the product.
