Gucci - Sunglasses

SELLER'S INDICATIVE ESTIMATE: €250

GUCCI GG 2712/S PU2 – SHIELD SUNGLASSES

Gucci sunglasses with a wide, wraparound front, dark green-gray tinted lenses, black temples and gold-colored metal details. The side decorations evoke the horsebit and bear the Gucci brand name. The model features transparent nose pads.

IDENTIFICATION AND MEASUREMENTS
The inscriptions photographed on the inside of the temple read: GUCCI, GG 2712/S, PU2, 115, MADE IN ITALY and CE marking.
The number 115 indicates the nominal temple length in millimeters; it is not equivalent to an international S/M/L size. The front width and lens height have not been documented through measurements and are not estimated from the photographs.
Metal and plastic construction with a gold-colored finish: this is not a declaration that the item is made of precious metal.

CONDITION
Vintage frame dating from before 2000, never worn, from a business clearance at an optician's shop that has ceased trading. It is fitted with new sunglasses lenses bearing the CE marking. However, the photographs show surface marks, particularly on the inside of the temples; its condition is therefore cautiously described as good. Please examine all images to assess the lenses, frame and details before bidding. No undocumented UV performance, polarization or optical properties are claimed.

INCLUDED
The black Gucci case shown in the photographs is included. Any additional accessories not pictured or mentioned are not included. The display stand is not included.

Inventory reference visible on the case: 4452.
Tracked shipping with protective packaging.

YOU ARE BUYING FROM STIMA PRO – ITALY

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

Items are subject to checks appropriate to their nature, with the support of Dr. Erika Barbero, a professional registered with the expert registers of the Court of Cuneo and the Italian College of Experts. 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 work. Gold and silver jewelry, silverware, watches, designer 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 own appraisal work and does not replace an individual certificate.

The description and photographs document the item offered, its accessories and its stated condition. For used or vintage items, signs of age and use are assessed in relation to the item's nature, period and condition. The photographs supplement the description without limiting liability for inaccurate characteristics or undisclosed defects.

Only the accessories and documents expressly mentioned are included. The trademarks cited belong to their respective owners; they are mentioned to identify the items and do not imply affiliation with or authorization by the fashion house.

PREPARATION, SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Each item is inspected, cleaned or sanitized using methods compatible with its materials and preservation, then carefully packaged.

Shipping is tracked and insured according to the terms of the service used. Items may be held in different warehouses: please allow approximately 7–10 days for delivery, except where other details are specified in the order, for certain destinations or due to customs processing times. The item will be shipped within the timeframe set by Catawiki and communicated for the order; the estimated delivery time does not extend the shipping deadline.

On receipt, check the packaging. If it is dented, cut, open or broken, ask the carrier to note a specific reservation, where possible. We recommend photographing the parcel before and after opening and keeping the packaging, protective materials and label to facilitate any insurance checks.

Failure to make a reservation, take photographs or retain the packaging does not automatically result in the loss of the consumer's non-waivable 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 Catawiki order messaging, providing the lot number and describing what you have observed.

In the event of damage, an item that does not match the description or missing contents, report the problem promptly to Catawiki support as well, preferably immediately and in any case within the 3 days provided for by the platform procedure, so the claim can be handled and payment potentially suspended.

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

CONSUMER'S RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

Where the buyer acts 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, also using 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 shipping is borne by the buyer, unless otherwise agreed. Amounts due by law will be refunded, including the cost of 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, and may be withheld until the item or proof of its return has been received, in accordance with the conditions set out by law. Amounts collected directly by Catawiki are handled through the platform within the respective areas of responsibility, without prejudice to non-waivable rights.

The buyer is liable for any loss in 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 subject to the legal guarantee of conformity provided for in Articles 128 et seq. of the Consumer Code, including for used goods, taking into account prior use and the characteristics declared in the contract.

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

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

Our commercial preference is to resolve substantiated disputes by having the item returned and issuing 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 investigate the problem and agree on a solution. Unauthorized work may alter the original condition, compromise the investigation 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 non-waivable rights remain unaffected: unauthorized work does not, by itself, result in the loss of all protection for 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 means of proving the purchase.

SHIPPING 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 order terms. Amounts already collected by the platform should not automatically be considered payable a second time.

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

We encourage buyers to check for any import restrictions in advance. For goods subject to specific regulations, 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 is requested and remote identification is carried out in accordance with the procedures set out in the applicable legislation.

If information essential to meeting a legal obligation is missing, the transaction cannot be completed until the issue is resolved. 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 comply with applicable legal obligations, in accordance with EU Regulation 2016/679 and Legislative Decree No. 196/2003. Only necessary data will be requested, and information will be provided about the purposes, methods and retention periods.

OUR COMMITMENT

Customer trust is built through accurate descriptions, thorough checks and a willingness to resolve problems. We therefore encourage 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 non-waivable rights.
