Return Policy
Right of withdrawal
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the goods.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Edition Lidiarte GmbH, Knesebeckstraße 13/14, 10623 Berlin, Deutschland, Tel: +49 30 313 74 20, eMail: shop@lidiarte.de) of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit the model withdrawal form or any other unequivocal statement on our website (https://www.edition-lidiarte.com/catalog/widerruf.php?language=en). If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

End of return policy


§ 8.2 Please avoid any damaging or dirtying. Please make sure that the items will sufficiently be protected against transport damages by using the appropriate packaging, to avoid any claims for damages on the grounds of inadequate packaging.

§ 8.3 Please return the goods to us as stamped parcel and keep the postal receipt. If requested, we will be pleased also to refund to you the postage fees in advance, unless they are to be paid by yourself.

§ 8.4 Please give us a call before returning the goods, using the telephone number +49 30 313 74 20, to announce the returning. This will enable us to make the quickest possible allocation of the products.

§ 8.6 Outside the European Union, the cancellation periods valid in the respective countries will be applicable.

§ 9.2 If the goods delivered show any evident transport damages, please immediately complain about such faults to the supplier, and please get into touch with us as soon as possible.

§ 9.3 A failure of complaining or getting in touch with us will in no way affect your statutory claims and their enforcement, or particularly your warranty rights. But you will thereby enable us to assert our own claims towards the carrier, respectively the transport insurance.


§ 10 Warranty

§ 10.1 Warranty is effected according to the respective statutory provisions. For all deficiencies occurring within the statutory warranty period of two years from delivery, you have the statutory right to a correction of the faults or a replacement, resp. a reduction of the purchase price or a rescission.

In printing products, minor deviations from the reproductions in the catalogue and online-shop in terms of shade of colour or format and paper quality cannot completely be avoided, due to the special fabrication and printing techniques involved. Such deviations are no entitlement to complaint by the customer.


§ 11 Appeal Proceedings / Dispute Arbitration

The European Commission provides a platform for extrajudical dispute resolution. This provides the possibility to the consumer to clarify conflicts in connection with their online ordering without the involving of a court.
