Cancellation Policy
Right of cancellation
If you are in the European Union you are entitled to cancel this contract within 14 days without stating any reason. The cancellation deadline is 14 days from the day on which you, or a third party appointed by you who is not the carrier, take possession of the last goods, last part delivery or last item. In order to exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us (BestReeds e.U., Wollzeile 32/1, 1010 WIEN, AUSTRIA, contact(at)BestReeds.at) by means of an unambiguous declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post or an email), about your decision to cancel this contract. For this purpose you can use the attached specimen cancellation form, but this is not compulsory. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient to dispatch the notice of cancellation before the deadline has expired.
What cancellation entails
If you cancel this contract, we are obliged to refund you with all the payments we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs arising because you have chosen a method of delivery other than the lowest-cost standard delivery offered by us) without delay and within 14 days at most from the day we received the notice of cancellation. Unless specifically agreed otherwise with you, we shall use the same method of payment for this refund as you used for the original transaction. We shall not under any circumstances make a charge for this refund. We can refuse to pay the refund until we have received the goods back from you or until you provide evidence that they have been sent back, whichever of these happens first. You shall send or take the goods back to us without delay and in any event within 14 days at most from the day on which you notify us that you are cancelling the contract. The deadline is met if you dispatch the goods before the 14-day deadline has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only required to reimburse any loss in value of the goods if such loss in value is attributable to the goods having been handled in a way that is not necessary for the purpose of checking their quality, characteristics and method of operation.
Exceptions to the right of cancellation
There are legal exceptions to the right of cancellation. For example, you cannot cancel the distance-selling contract if the goods ordered were specially manufactured to your specifications or are clearly tailored to your personal requirements and cannot be sold to anyone else, or only at an unacceptable discount, on account of implementing your specifications. Furthermore, your initial right of cancellation expires prematurely in the case of: contracts for delivery of sealed goods which are not suitable to be returned for reasons of health protection or hygiene if the seal has been removed after delivery, contracts for delivery of goods if, by their nature, these have been inseparably mixed with other goods after delivery, contracts for delivery of audio or video recordings or computer software in a sealed pack if the seal has been removed after delivery.
