Shipping and returns
PRICES AND PAYMENT
Claudia Güdel prices are calculated with low margins so that we can offer products of the highest quality at reasonable prices. Claudia Güdel GmbH retains ownership of delivered goods until the purchase price and any related costs have been paid in full.
Purchase prices are listed in Swiss francs (CHF) and include Swiss value added tax (VAT). Payment is required via one of the specified payment options prior to delivery. If your delivery address is outside of Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein, Swiss VAT is not applicable and will be deducted.
Your order will be checked, carefully packed and shipped with DHL within 3 working days, provided that the items are in stock at our main warehouse. For items that need to be transferred from one of our stores to fulfil your order, there may be slight delays. Delivery with DHL generally takes 1–2 working days.
Claudia Güdel GmbH accepts no liability for delivery delays caused by the shipping company. Any further claims by the customer – in particular claims for delivery – are excluded.All offers are non-binding; there is no obligation to deliver.
RETURNS
Clothing needs to be tried on. You have the right to return goods you have ordered without specifying a reason. If you are unsure which size to order, you may order an article in two sizes and return the article that does not fit. Please send returns to Claudia Güdel GmbH, Bäckerstrasse 56, 8004 Zurich, Switzerland.
RETURN PERIOD
You may return articles within 10 days of the date on the delivery confirmation receipt. If you misplace the delivery confirmation receipt, the 10-day return period begins on the date of shipment.
CONDITION OF RETURNED GOODS
The returned product must be undamaged, clean, without any signs of use, and free of odours; all original tags must be attached.
RETURN COSTS AND CONDITIONS
The product must always be returned with its proof of purchase and, if included in the shipment, a completed return form. You bear the return costs.
Please retain your mailing receipt for the returned product until we have received the product. If we do not receive the returned product, proof that it was sent is required. Claudia Güdel GmbH assumes no liability for the loss of a returned product.
REFUNDS
Refunds will be processed once the returned goods have been received by Claudia Güdel GmbH in perfect condition. The refund will be made using the same payment method used for the original purchase. Only the purchase price of the returned goods will be refunded. Shipping costs paid by the customer will not be refunded.
EXCHANGES
The same conditions set out above in the SHIPPING CONDITIONS and RETURNS sections apply to exchanges.
LIABILITY
Our employees carefully inspect all articles before packing them well with the appropriate delivery documents for shipment. In the event that, despite our inspection and care, you receive an article that is damaged or defective, please inform us within 24 hours of receiving the article by sending us an email at [email protected]. We will do our best to replace the defective article. After this notification deadline expires, it is no longer possible to assert claims for defects.
If a shipment is damaged (breakage, packaging has been torn open, or goods have been partially or completely lost), its recipient must show the delivery company both the packaging and its contents within 24 hours of receipt. A damage report is required for each damage claim.
COMPENSATION FOR LOSS IN VALUE
If a delivered article is returned after the allowed return period, or if the returned article is damaged or shows signs of use, we reserve the right to determine at our sole discretion a reasonable level of compensation – up to and including 100% of the purchase price – for the corresponding loss in value.
