4. PAYMENT OF THE PRICE OF GOODS AND PAYMENT TERMS

4.1. The Buyer may pay the price of the goods and any associated delivery costs under the purchase contract to the Seller using the following methods:
– In cash at the Seller’s premises (see the company address)
– In cash on delivery at the place specified by the Buyer in the order
– Cashless by bank transfer to the Seller’s account before delivery of the goods
Seller’s account: 636 505 514 / 0600, GE Money Bank, a.s. The payment constant symbol is 0008, and the variable symbol is the invoice number. The Buyer will also receive information for making the transfer when the order is confirmed (proforma invoice).

4.2. Together with the purchase price, the Buyer is obliged to pay the Seller the costs associated with packaging and delivering the goods at the agreed amount. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the purchase price also includes the costs associated with delivering the goods.

4.3. In the case of cash payment or payment on delivery, the purchase price is due upon receipt of the goods.

4.4. In the case of cashless payment, the Buyer shall pay the purchase price of the goods together with the specified variable symbol of the payment to the Seller’s account based on the proforma invoice issued by the Seller and sent to the Buyer before the delivery of the goods. The validity of the proforma invoice is 30 days from its issuance. If the full amount is not credited to the Seller’s account within this period, the Seller is entitled to withdraw from the purchase contract.

4.5. After the payment is made, the Seller shall issue the Buyer a tax document for the received payment and an accounting tax document – an invoice.

4.6. The Buyer becomes the owner of the goods only upon payment or crediting the full amount to the Seller’s account; until then, the goods remain the property of the Seller.

4.7. The Seller does not allow purchases on so-called consumer loans.

5. TRANSPORT AND DELIVERY OF GOODS

5.1. Goods that are in stock are usually dispatched by the Seller the next working day after the order confirmation in the case of personal pickup or cash on delivery. When paying by bank transfer, the Seller usually dispatches the in-stock goods the next working day after the corresponding amount is credited to their account.

5.2. Goods that are not in stock are dispatched by the Seller as soon as possible. The Buyer will be informed in advance about the approximate date.

5.3. Goods can be picked up in person at the Seller’s premises after notification to the Buyer’s email address or telephone contact. In the case of prepayment, the goods can only be picked up by the Buyer unless explicitly agreed otherwise (e.g., a comment in the order). This person must sufficiently identify themselves and provide a valid ID card or valid passport.

5.4. The second option is to use an external carrier, which is the PPL delivery service. The handover of the goods to the carrier is notified to the Buyer’s email address. The exact time and date of delivery of the shipment is exclusively the carrier’s responsibility from the moment it is handed over. The telephone contact provided in the order is automatically printed on the address label that each shipment is marked with. In case of problems, the driver or dispatcher can contact the Buyer to arrange delivery details. Shipping and packaging costs are included in the amount to be paid. Shipping and packaging costs are not charged for orders with a delivery address in the Czech Republic, whose financial volume exceeds 10,000 CZK without VAT. Shipping and packaging costs for delivery addresses outside the Czech Republic are governed by the carrier’s price list at the delivery location, and their amount will be communicated to you upon request. The Seller publishes the shipping and packaging costs on the website.

5.5. The third option is the delivery of goods to the Buyer’s email address. This is only possible for selected types of goods (software).

5.6. If the method of transport is agreed upon based on the Buyer’s special request, the Buyer bears the risk and any additional costs associated with this method of transport.

5.7. If the Seller is obliged to deliver the goods to a location specified by the Buyer in the order under the purchase contract, the Buyer is obliged to take delivery of the goods upon delivery.

5.8. If, for reasons on the Buyer’s side, it is necessary to deliver the goods repeatedly or in a different manner than was specified in the order, the Buyer is obliged to pay the costs associated with repeated delivery of the goods or the costs associated with a different method of delivery.

5.9. If the Buyer refuses to take delivery of the goods either from the carrier or in person at the Seller’s premises, a notice will be sent to the Buyer’s email address. If the Buyer does not collect the goods within 14 working days of the notice being sent, the Seller is entitled to withdraw from the purchase contract. The Seller will return any paid funds received from the Buyer within 14 days of the withdrawal from the purchase contract, using the same method the Seller received from the Buyer. The Seller is entitled to unilaterally offset the costs of futile delivery of the goods due to the Buyer’s lack of cooperation against the Buyer’s claim for a refund of the purchase price.

5.10. When taking delivery of the goods from the carrier, the Buyer is obliged to check the integrity of the goods’ packaging and to immediately report any defects to the carrier. If the packaging is found to be damaged, indicating unauthorized access to the shipment, the Buyer may refuse to accept the shipment from the carrier. In the event of damage to the shipment, the Seller recommends that the Buyer prepare a damage report with the carrier.

5.11. The Seller ensures the take-back of electrical equipment, batteries, and accumulators in accordance with the relevant legal regulations. When personally collecting goods at the Seller’s premises, the Buyer has the option to return old electrical equipment.

The form attached to these Terms and Conditions may be used.

If the Consumer withdraws from the purchase contract, the Consumer bears the costs associated with returning the goods to the Seller. The Consumer shall include the delivery note and invoice, if issued, or another document proving the purchase of the goods.

6.4. In the event of withdrawal from the contract under the preceding sections of these Terms and Conditions, the Seller shall return the funds received from the Consumer within fourteen days of the withdrawal from the purchase contract by the Consumer and after the return of the goods, using the same method by which the Seller received the funds from the Consumer.

7. RIGHTS ARISING FROM DEFECTIVE PERFORMANCE AND COMPLAINTS

7.1. The rights and obligations of the contracting parties regarding rights arising from defective performance are governed by the relevant generally binding legal regulations (especially the provisions of Sections 1914 to 1925, Sections 2099 to 2117, and Sections 2161 to 2174 of the Civil Code).

7.2. The Seller is liable to the Buyer that the goods have no defects upon receipt and have the properties agreed upon by the parties, or, in the absence of an agreement, the properties described by the Seller or the manufacturer, the goods are in the appropriate quantity, measure, or weight, and the goods comply with legal requirements.

7.3. The Seller is liable to the Buyer that no defects will appear on the goods within twenty-four months of receipt by the Buyer. For goods with a limited lifespan, the warranty period may be shorter (e.g., rechargeable batteries, used goods sold at a discount). If a use-by period is indicated on the goods, its packaging, or in the accompanying instructions in accordance with special legal regulations, the warranty period ends upon the expiration of this period. If a defect appears within six months of receipt, the goods are presumed to have been defective at the time of receipt.

7.4. If a defect appears during the period according to the previous section that prevents the purchased product from being used properly, and this defect can be remedied, the Buyer has the right to have it repaired free of charge. If the defect cannot be remedied and prevents the goods from being used properly as defect-free goods, the Buyer has the right to exchange the goods, receive an appropriate discount on the purchase price, or withdraw from the purchase contract.

7.5. The Buyer is not entitled to rights arising from defective performance if the Buyer knew about the defect before receiving the goods or if the Buyer caused the defect. The Buyer has no right to withdraw from the purchase contract or demand the delivery of new goods if the Buyer cannot return the goods in the condition in which they were received, except as provided by law.

7.6. If the Buyer does not withdraw from the purchase contract or does not exercise the right to have new goods delivered free of defects, to have a part of the goods replaced, or to have the goods repaired, the Buyer may demand a reasonable discount on the purchase price. The Buyer is also entitled to a reasonable discount if the Seller cannot deliver new goods free of defects, replace a part of the goods, or repair the goods, as well as in cases where the Seller fails to remedy the situation within a reasonable time. If remedying the situation would cause the Buyer significant inconvenience, an individual solution to the complaint will be agreed upon between the Seller and the Buyer.

7.7. The Buyer is obliged to file a complaint with the Seller without undue delay after discovering the defect. Received complaints are handled without undue delay, but no later than 30 days from the date the complaint is filed, unless the Seller and the Buyer agree otherwise. The Seller shall issue a confirmation of the complaint and its resolution, and the warranty period is suspended during the complaint process. The Buyer will be informed of the progress and resolution of the complaint via the Buyer’s email address or phone contact.

7.8. The day on which the goods are delivered to the Seller’s address is considered the day the complaint is filed. In the case of a disputed complaint, the Seller will decide on its acceptance within three working days from the date the complaint is filed.

7.9. The warranty and claims for liability for defects do not apply to goods for which the complaint was filed after the expiration of the specified warranty period, as well as to wear and tear of the goods caused by use. The warranty and claims for liability for defects do not apply to defects caused by improper use, failure to follow instructions, improper maintenance, unauthorized intervention, or improper storage. For items sold at a discounted price, the Seller is not liable for the defect for which the discount was agreed upon; in this case, the Buyer has the right to a reasonable discount instead of the right to exchange. The warranty and claims for liability for defects do not apply to defects caused by external events beyond the Seller’s control.

7.10. Complaints can be filed by phone, in writing to the Seller’s premises address, or to the Seller’s email address at illko@illko.cz. The complaint must also include the Buyer’s contact address, phone number, and email address.

7.11. When resolving a complaint, the Buyer is obliged to provide the Seller with the necessary cooperation. The Buyer shall ensure the delivery of the claimed goods to the Seller’s address (not cash on delivery, which the Seller does not accept). The Buyer is obliged to pack the goods in the original or other suitable packaging to prevent damage. The Buyer shall include proof of purchase or an invoice, if issued, or another document proving the purchase of the goods (or copies thereof) along with a description of the defect and a proposal for resolving the complaint. The warranty card, if issued, must also be included.

7.12. In the case of a justified complaint, the Buyer is entitled to reasonable compensation for the cost of shipping the claimed goods.

7.13. The Seller is not liable for any damages caused by the inability to use the claimed goods.

7.14. The Buyer is obliged to collect the claimed goods within 30 days of the complaint resolution. After this period, the Seller is entitled to charge reasonable storage fees or to sell the goods on behalf of the Buyer. The Buyer will be informed of this procedure in advance via the Buyer’s email address.

7.15. Any disputes between the Seller and the Buyer shall be resolved by the general courts. The Seller prefers to resolve any disputes out of court, unless the Buyer declines.
