YOU ARE BUYING FROM STIMA PRO – ITALIA

Expertise, transparency and attention to authenticity are at the heart of our work. Our aim is to offer an informed buying experience, accurate descriptions and assistance before and after the sale.

Items undergo checks appropriate to their nature, with the support of Dr Erika Barbero, a professional registered on the expert registers of the Court of Cuneo and with the Collegio Periti Italiani. These registrations relate to the professional’s qualifications and do not constitute approval of any individual item by the Court or by the brands represented.

AUTHENTICITY, CONDITION AND DOCUMENTATION

Verification of condition and authenticity is central to our business. Gold and silver jewellery, silverware, watches, branded clothing and accessories are examined according to the characteristics of each individual item and the documentation available.

Any certificates or expert reports are provided when expressly stated in the description, or may be requested before bidding, subject to agreement on availability, content and any costs. Catawiki’s expert review is separate from our appraisal work and does not replace an individual certificate.

The description and photographs document the item offered, its accessories and the stated condition. For used or vintage items, signs of age and use are assessed in relation to the nature, age and condition of the item. The photographs supplement the description and do not limit liability for inaccurate details or undisclosed defects.

Only the accessories and documents expressly stated are included. The brands mentioned belong to their respective owners; they are named to identify the items and this does not imply affiliation with or authorisation by the relevant fashion house.

PREPARATION, SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Each item is inspected, cleaned or sanitised in a manner compatible with its materials and preservation, then carefully packaged.

Shipping is tracked and insured in accordance with the terms of the service used. Items may be held in different warehouses: please allow approximately 7–10 days for delivery, unless otherwise stated in the order, for special destinations or due to customs processing times. The item will be shipped within the time limits established by Catawiki and communicated for the order; the estimated delivery time does not extend the shipping deadline.

Upon receipt, please inspect the packaging. If there are dents, cuts, openings or breaks, ask the carrier to record a specific reservation, where possible. We recommend photographing the parcel before and after opening it and keeping the packaging, protective materials and label to facilitate any insurance checks.

The absence of a reservation, photographs or packaging does not automatically result in the loss of consumers’ mandatory rights. In sales to consumers, transport risk is governed by Article 63 of the Consumer Code.

ASSISTANCE AND REPORTING ISSUES

If you have any questions or encounter a problem, contact us through the Catawiki order messaging system, stating the lot number and describing the issue.

In the event of damage, an item that does not match the description or missing contents, report the issue promptly to Catawiki support as well, preferably immediately and in any case within the 3 days provided by the platform’s procedure, so that the complaint can be handled and payment may be suspended if necessary.

This operational deadline does not result in the forfeiture of the right of withdrawal or the legal guarantee within the applicable time limits.

CONSUMER’S RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

Where the buyer is acting as a consumer and the legal requirements are met, they may withdraw without giving a reason within 14 days of receiving the item, pursuant to Articles 52 et seq. of Legislative Decree No. 206/2005, subject to the exceptions provided by law.

The decision must be communicated to the seller by means of an explicit statement, including through the Catawiki procedure. The item must be sent back within 14 days of communicating the withdrawal.

In the case of a change of mind, the direct cost of return is borne by the buyer, unless otherwise agreed. Amounts due under the law will be refunded, including the cost of the standard initial delivery; any additional cost for a more expensive delivery option chosen by the buyer is not refundable.

The refund will be made without undue delay and within the statutory time limits. It may be withheld until the item or proof of return has been received, in accordance with the conditions set out in the applicable legislation. Amounts collected directly by Catawiki are handled through the platform within its respective responsibilities, without prejudice to mandatory rights.

The buyer is liable for any diminished value resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish the item’s nature, characteristics and functioning, within the limits set by law.

LEGAL GUARANTEE AND LACK OF CONFORMITY

Sales to consumers are covered by the legal guarantee of conformity provided for in Articles 128 et seq. of the Consumer Code, including for used goods, taking into account their prior use and the characteristics declared in the contract.

The standard period of liability is two years from delivery. For used goods, any reduction—which may not be less than one year—applies only if validly agreed and permitted under the applicable rules.

In the event of a lack of conformity, consumers are entitled to the remedies provided by law: repair or replacement, where practicable, or a price reduction or termination of the contract where the relevant requirements are met.

Our commercial preference is to resolve substantiated complaints through return of the item and a full refund where appropriate, rather than negotiating informal discounts. This preference does not exclude mandatory remedies, including a price reduction.

Where a return is due to a defect attributable to the seller, the necessary costs are borne by us as required by law. Costs in other cases of cancellation are determined by the reason for cancellation and the applicable provisions.

RETURNS, REPAIRS AND ITEM INTEGRITY

Before arranging repairs, restoration, adjustments or work by third parties, please contact us so that we can verify the issue and agree on a solution. Unauthorised work may alter the item’s original condition, hinder inspections and affect liability for any damage or defects caused by that work.

There is no automatic reimbursement for work independently commissioned from third parties. The buyer’s mandatory rights remain unaffected: unauthorised work does not, by itself, result in the loss of all protection against defects unrelated to that work.

The returned item must include the accessories and documents received and be protected with suitable packaging. Please include the order reference and, if available, a copy of the sales document. The original receipt is not the only acceptable proof of purchase.

SHIPMENTS OUTSIDE THE EU AND CUSTOMS REQUIREMENTS

For destinations outside the European Union, including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, China, Taiwan, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates, customs duties, taxes and clearance charges may apply, depending on the destination and the terms of the order. Amounts already collected by the platform should not automatically be assumed to be payable a second time.

Where necessary, tax or identification details may be requested for customs clearance. A passport number will be requested only if it is genuinely necessary under the applicable rules or the documented instructions of the carrier or competent authority.

Buyers are advised to check any import restrictions in advance. For goods subject to special rules, including CITES or cultural property regulations, shipping remains subject to the legal possibility of export and import and to the required documents.

CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION AND DATA PROTECTION

For distance sales of precious items subject to identification requirements, a valid identity document will be requested and remote identification will be carried out in accordance with the procedures laid down by the applicable legislation.

If information essential to meeting a legal obligation is missing, the transaction cannot be completed until the matter has been rectified. Any cancellation and refund will be handled with Catawiki in accordance with the applicable legislation and terms, without any automatic exclusion of liability.

Personal data will be processed for contractual, tax and customs purposes and to meet applicable legal obligations, in compliance with EU Regulation 2016/679 and Legislative Decree 196/2003. Only necessary data will be requested, and information will be provided on the purposes, methods and retention periods.

OUR COMMITMENT

Customer trust is built through accurate descriptions, careful checks and a willingness to resolve problems. We therefore invite you to contact us before bidding if you have any questions, and after delivery if you need assistance.

This information supplements the lot description and Catawiki’s terms and conditions, without limiting the buyer’s mandatory rights.
