8.2 Damaged or Defective Goods
8.2.1 Products - If you receive a product that is defective, you can return it within 14 days and either get a replacement or a refund. Please make sure you give us your order number and return the item in its original packaging. If the product is covered by a manufacturer's warranty, please contact the manufacturer directly.
8.2.2 Plants - If you receive a plant that is in bad condition when you receive it, contact us immediately. We may then ask you to send us a photograph so that there is no doubt as to its condition on arrival with you, as opposed to what it looks like by the time you return it to us. It is obvious that plants look different depending on the time of year you receive it. If you order a deciduous shrub in the winter, it will not appear the same as in spring or summer. It does not mean there is anything wrong with it, just that you need to wait for the weather to pick up and the vegetation will reappear. However, provided that you have contacted us within 24 hours of receiving the damaged plant we will be happy to arrange for a refund or replacement.
8.2.3 One year Guarantee on Plants, shrubs and trees - Our plants, shrubs and trees are all guaranteed for one year after you have bought them. If the plant fails in the first 12 months, we will replace it or refund you. This guarantee does not include any plants damaged due to lack of watering or lack of proper horticultural care. In particular, you are advised to strictly follow the plant care guidelines sent out with the order otherwise we will not replace the plant affected. All you have to do is take a picture of the plant, send it in with your order number to dgl@dgl-group.eu, and tell us what the problem is. We will then do our best to sort you out a replacement or refund your money. You will be charged for delivery on replacement items.
8.2.4 Incorrect Goods – In the event that we sent you something you had not ordered please contact as within 24 hours of receiving the good and return it within 28 days unused and in its original packaging and you will not be charged.
8.2.5 Damaged in transit - If your purchase is damaged in transit you can return it within 28 days and either get a replacement or a refund. Please make sure you give us your order number and return the item in its original packaging.
8.2.6 Right to withdrawal - You shall have a period of 14 days after the date on which you have received the Goods to withdraw from the Contract and to return the Goods to us. You shall be responsible for payment of the direct costs in returning the Goods to us and we shall be entitled to deduct from any refund of the price for the Goods an amount equal to such delivery costs as are paid by us on your behalf. Until we receive the goods you are returning, they are your responsibility. We recommend you use a recorded delivery service to return the Goods.
8.2.7 If the item has been damaged, used or is not returned in its original packaging, we reserve the right to withhold a percentage of the refund value if the item needs to be reduced in price for resale.
8.2.8 The right to withdraw from the Contract does not affect any of your statutory rights.
