2.) Clear mistakes or errors regarding paragraph 1 of this article and the provision in article 3 paragraph 1 do not bind Bubbles Creation.
Article 5 – Delivery
1.) Bubbles Creation will exercise the utmost care in receiving and executing orders. The delivery times mentioned here and on the website are indicative. The buyer cannot derive any rights from these indications, and they are not binding.
2.) The address provided by the buyer to Bubbles Creation applies as the place of delivery. If not otherwise agreed in writing, Bubbles Creation only delivers to specified physical addresses within the Netherlands or as indicated on our website. An order for delivery to an address outside the Netherlands will not be executed.

4.) Bubbles Creation will execute accepted orders with due speed after the conclusion of the contract, but no later than within 30 days thereafter. If delivery is delayed beyond these 30 days, the buyer will receive notification as soon as Bubbles Creation becomes aware of it. Bubbles Creation is then in default when the buyer has put Bubbles Creation in default through a reminder, giving Bubbles Creation a reasonable period to deliver, and when even then performance remains absent. In that case, the buyer has the right to terminate the contract (in part) without costs. Another delivery period can also be agreed upon or it can be agreed to deliver another product.

Article 6 – Cooling-off period or right of withdrawal
1.) After the buyer or a third party designated by him (not the carrier) has received the product, the buyer has 14 days to dissolve the contract without giving any reason. This period starts on the day after the product, or in the case of partial delivery, after all products/components of the order, have been received by or on behalf of the buyer.
2.) To exercise the right of withdrawal, the buyer must inform Bubbles Creation of his decision through an unequivocal statement (e.g., in writing by post or email). The buyer can send the clearly formulated statement to sales@bubblescreation.nl.
3.) The buyer must then return the products as soon as possible – but no later than 14 days after the statement mentioned in paragraph 2 has been issued – in the manner indicated by Bubbles Creation.
4.) The return of the products must be done by registered mail in the original packaging (including accessories and accompanying documentation), with the original or similar protective material and in the condition in which the buyer received them, i.e., undamaged and unused. Direct costs of returning the products are for the account of the buyer.
5.) During the cooling-off period, the buyer will handle the products and packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the products to the extent necessary to assess whether he wishes to keep the product. The buyer is only liable for the depreciation of the products resulting from the use thereof that goes beyond what is necessary to determine the nature, characteristics, and operation of the products. After a successful withdrawal,
6.) Bubbles Creation will refund the amounts paid by the buyer (including initial delivery costs) within 14 days after the day of receipt of the statement mentioned in paragraph 2. Bubbles Creation may wait with the refund until it has received all products, or until the buyer has proven that he has returned the products, whichever occurs first.
7.) If the buyer has opted for a more expensive method of initial delivery than the cheapest standard delivery, Bubbles Creation does not have to refund the additional costs for the more expensive method.
Article 7 – Retention of title

Any defects or incorrectly delivered products must be reported to Bubbles Creation in writing, in the case of a consumer purchase within 2 weeks (possibly in certain cases no later than 2 months) after discovery and in all other cases within a reasonable time after discovery or after it should reasonably have been discovered. Any return of the products must be done by registered mail in the original packaging (including accessories and accompanying documentation), in the condition in which the buyer received them, and in the manner indicated by Bubbles Creation.
3.) If it appears that the delivered product(s) do(es) not comply with the agreement, Bubbles Creation will replace or repair the delivered product(s) free of charge or reach a written agreement with the buyer on compensation.
4.)The buyer cannot invoke the warranty referred to in paragraph 1 if the delivered product(s) have been exposed to abnormal circumstances, if the buyer has not taken care of them as a careful debtor for their preservation, or if these products have been handled contrary to the instructions of Bubbles Creation and/or the instructions for use or if the buyer has repaired and/or processed the delivered products himself or has had them repaired and/or processed by third parties.
