Consumer or Entrepreneur-Consumer using the right indicated in paragraph 1 above, may withdraw from the Sales Agreement by submitting an appropriate statement to the Seller.

The statement may be sent by traditional mail or by e-mail by sending the statement to the Seller’s e-mail address or by submitting the statement on the Seller’s website – the Seller’s contact details are specified in point III of the Regulations. The declaration may also be submitted on the form, the specimen of which is Annex 1 to these Regulations and an annex to the Act of May 30, 2014 on consumer rights, but its use is not obligatory.
In the event of sending the statement by the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer by e-mail, the Seller shall immediately send the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer to the e-mail address provided confirmation of receipt of the declaration of withdrawal from the Agreement.
Consequences of withdrawal from the Agreement:
In the event of withdrawal from a Distance Agreement, this Agreement is considered void.
What the parties have provided is returned if it is unchanged, with all restrictions imposed by pharmaceutical law or other applicable laws or regulations.
Subject to point b, the Seller is obliged to immediately, no later than within 14 days from the date of receipt of the Consumer’s or Entrepreneur-Consumer’s declaration of withdrawal from the Sales Agreement, return to the Consumer or Entrepreneur-Consumer all payments made by him, including the costs of delivery of the Product (except for additional costs resulting from the method of delivery chosen by the Customer other than the cheapest standard delivery method available in the Online Store). Additionally, if the Customer returns the Product in a manner other than the cheapest standard delivery method offered by the Online Store, the Seller is not obliged to reimburse the additional costs incurred by the Customer. The seller is not responsible for return shipments.
If the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer exercises the statutory right to withdraw from the Sales Agreement, the Seller shall refund the payment using the same method of payment as used by the Consumer or Entrepreneur-Consumer, unless the Consumer or Entrepreneur-Consumer expressly agreed to a different method of return which does not involve any costs for him.

The responsibility of the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer may include, in particular, the inability to introduce the Product for sale as a full-value Product, the costs of re-placing tags and security elements on the Product, as well as the costs of restoring the Product to a state that allows it to be re-introduced for sale in the Online Store, including costs of Product examination by a specialist and costs of removing defects found as a result of such examination (to the extent to which these defects result from the use by the Consumer or Entrepreneur-Consumer of the Product in a way that goes beyond what is necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and functioning). The Seller has the right to charge the Customer with the amount of compensation on this account. After calling the Customer to pay compensation, the Seller may submit a statement on the deduction of his claim for compensation for the reduction of the value of the item with the claim of the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer for reimbursement of costs incurred in connection with the concluded contract.
The right to withdraw from a distance contract is not available to the Consumer or the Entrepreneur-Consumer in relation to the Agreement:

Products presented in the Online Store may be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. The detailed conditions of the guarantee and its duration are then specified in the guarantee card issued by the guarantor and attached to the Product.

If the sold Product has a defect, the Customer may:
submit a declaration of price reduction or withdrawal from the Sales Agreement, unless the Seller immediately and without undue inconvenience to the Customer replaces the defective Product with a Product free from defects or removes the defect. The reduced price should remain in such proportion to the price resulting from the contract in which the value of the Product with the defect remains to the value of the Product without a defect;
demand the replacement of the Product with a Product free from defects or the removal of the defect. The Seller is obliged to replace the defective Product with one free from defects or remove the defect within a reasonable time without undue inconvenience to the Customer; with reservations and on the terms specified in the relevant provisions of the Civil Code.
The Customer may, instead of the removal of the defect proposed by the Seller, request the replacement of the Product with a product free from defects, or instead of replacing the Product, demand that the defect be removed, unless it is impossible to bring the Product into compliance with the contract in a manner chosen by the Customer or would require excessive costs compared to by the method proposed by the Seller. When assessing the excess of costs, the value of the Product free from defects is taken into account, as well as the type and significance of the defect found, and the inconvenience to which the Customer would otherwise be exposed.
The customer cannot withdraw from the contract if the defect is irrelevant.
If a guarantee has been granted for the Product, information about it, as well as its content, will be included in the description of the Product in the Store.

a detailed description of the defect and the date of its finding, the Customer’s request, as well as the Customer’s preferred method of informing about the method of considering the complaint.

The customer who exercises the rights under the warranty is obliged to deliver the defective Product to the following address: Grójecka 27/11, 02-030 Warsaw.

The Seller, within 14 days from the date of receipt of the complaint from the Consumer, will inform him of his position regarding the legitimacy of the claim.
The customer should collect the advertised Product immediately after informing him about the examination of his application and delivering it to the address indicated by the customer. If the Product is not collected, the Seller will call the Customer in writing or otherwise personally agreed with him to collect the Product within 14 days from the date of receipt of such request.
Returns are allowed only in the case of an unused Product (without any signs of use) and originally packed, if the Product was in the packaging.
If it turns out that the returned Product shows signs of use, the return will not be accepted and the Product will be sent back to the Customer at his expense.
Any damage caused during delivery should be immediately reported to an employee of the courier company and immediately notified about this fact online store wikilim.com
The condition for considering the complaint is drawing up a complaint protocol in the presence of an employee of the company delivering the parcel, which is the basis for the complaint procedure – this procedure will be carried out by the Seller on behalf of the Buyer. After a positive consideration of the submitted complaint, the product covered by it will be replaced with another, free from defects. If it is impossible (for example due to the fact that stocks of this Product are exhausted), the Store will refund the Buyer the equivalent of the Product price or will offer other available Products to choose from. The damage report should be provided by the courier. Failure to report the damage may result in the complaint not being examined, and thus the possible failure to pay the compensation.
