You may normally examine the item in the same way as you would in a shop, but you may not use it.

If the item no longer has a commercial value, we will not refund the purchase price.

You must return the goods in the original packaging. The packaging may be opened, but not destroyed. If the packaging is missing or damaged, this may constitute a reduction in value for which you are liable.
You should also ensure that the item is properly wrapped when you return it. You bear the risk of the package/goods until we receive them. Therefore, save the shipping receipt.


Complaints - if there is something wrong with the product

The rules of the Danish Sale of Goods Act apply to the purchase of goods. You have a 2-year warranty if the product has a defect. A defect is, for example, a manufacturing or material defect or incorrect information about the product. On the other hand, ordinary wear and tear or damage you have caused yourself is not a defect.

If the goods are defective and you complain in due time, you have the right to have the goods repaired or replaced in the first instance. If this cannot be done or not within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to a refund or a reduction in price, depending on the circumstances.

If you discover a defect, you must notify us within a reasonable time. We recommend that you make a complaint as soon as possible, especially in the case of transportation damage. However, if you complain within 2 months after the defect is discovered, it is always within a reasonable time, but freight damage is within 5 business days. If the complaint is justified, we will reimburse your reasonable and necessary shipping costs. Therefore, save your receipt.

If you want to complain to us about a defect, we ask you to provide as much detail as possible about the problem. This is not a requirement, but it makes it easier for us to find the defect and minimizes the processing time for the complaint. We recommend that you send an email to bm@bernstorffsminde.dk with your order number and pictures of the defect.
Send the item securely packaged.
