Terms and Conditions
ARTICLE 1 – Scope and modification of the general conditions of sale
These general terms and conditions of sale apply to all orders placed on the website https://repsare.fr by professionals for the purchase of spare parts. These conditions apply to the exclusion of all other conditions, and in particular those applicable to sales in stores or through other distribution and marketing channels. Repsare.fr, owned by TEKNES, reserves the right to adapt or modify these general terms and conditions of sale at any time. In the event of modification, the general terms and conditions of sale in effect on the day of the order will be applied to each order. These General Terms and Conditions of Sale are accessible at any time on this website and will prevail, where applicable, over any other version or any other contradictory document. Unless proven otherwise, the data recorded by Repsare.fr constitutes proof of all transactions. The products presented on the Repsare.fr website are offered for sale only for mainland France. Deliveries outside mainland France (Corsica, French overseas departments and territories, Belgium, etc.) are subject to prior validation by our services and may incur additional costs.
ARTICLE 2 – Validation of orders
These general conditions of sale, as well as the prices of spare parts sold on the site https://repsare.fr , are approved and accepted by the professional customer irrevocably upon validation of the order form. The customer acknowledges having read them by the order he places. He therefore waives the right to rely on any contradictory document and, in particular, his own general conditions of purchase. The order associated with the authentication and non-repudiation procedure and the protection of the integrity of messages constitutes an electronic signature. This signature has the same value between the parties as a handwritten signature.
ARTICLE 3 – Products and availability
Our spare parts offers and prices are valid as long as they are visible on the site https://repsare.fr , within the limit of their availability. When an order is placed on the site https://repsare.fr , we check the availability of the part(s) ordered. In the event of unavailability after ordering, we undertake to inform you of the time within which it will be made available or to offer you a similar spare part that can be delivered within 30 days around the initially planned delivery date or to offer you cancellation and the issue of a purchase voucher. In the case of the issue of a purchase voucher, you can, upon simple request to our Customer Service, request the cancellation of the latter and its reimbursement by check, by telephone or by simple mail (however, for greater security, we advise you to send a letter with Acknowledgment of Receipt) to the following address:
Repair – Customer Service – 144 rue du point du jour – 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt
In order to process your request correctly, please be sure to remind us of your order number and your full contact details.
The order validation date is defined as:
- The date of the order in the case of payment by credit card online
- The date of receipt of the check in case of payment by check
- The date of receipt of the transfer in the case of payment by transfer
If one of the items in your order is unavailable, we will ship the rest of your order.
Some products are available for pre-order. This means that the order is placed immediately and the product will be delivered at a later date. Delivery times for pre-ordered products are approximate and may vary. In the event of a change, the customer will be informed of the new delivery time. Once the order has been placed, cancellations are not possible before delivery and the right of withdrawal is exercised.
