Article 5 - Delivery

5.1. Orders are prepared by STABLEGEAR and shipped by an independent carrier to the delivery address indicated by the Customer when ordering.

5.2. STABLEGEAR will do its best to ensure the delivery of the ordered Products to the Customer within ten (10) working days from the date of the confirmation of the order or, failing that, within a reasonable time. If the Product is an ANTARES brand product: (i) either the product is in stock with STABLEGEAR, in which case the indicative delivery time of ten (10) working days, indicated in the preceding paragraph, applies (ii) or the product is not in stock with STABLEGEAR but is in stock with its supplier ANTARES, in which case the indicative delivery time is fifteen (15) working days (iii) or the product is not in stock with the ANTARES supplier, in which case the indicative delivery time is six (6) to eight (8) weeks.
The delivery times announced are purely indicative so that a delay in delivery can neither give rise to cancellation of the order, nor to the payment of compensation on any grounds whatsoever, unless the Customer demonstrates that the delay is the consequence of a serious breach of duty by STABLEGEAR.

5.3. If the Customer is a Consumer and the ordered products have not been delivered within a period of three (3) weeks after the indicative delivery date, for any other reason than force majeure or the fact of the Customer, the sale can be cancelled at the written request of the Customer under the conditions provided for in article VI.43 of the Code of Economic Law.
Thus, in the event of failure by STABLEGEAR to deliver the goods at the time agreed with the Consumer Customer or within the time limits referred to in the previous paragraph, the Consumer Customer shall request STABLEGEAR to make the delivery within an additional time limit appropriate to the circumstances. If STABLEGEAR has not made the delivery within the said additional period, the Consumer Customer has the right to terminate the contract.

The sums paid by the Customer will then be returned to him at the latest within fourteen (14) days following the date of termination of the contract, to the exclusion of any other compensation or retention.

5.4. The Customer is required to check the condition of the delivered products. He has a period of eight (8) days from delivery to formulate by registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt, all reservations or claims for non-conformity or apparent defect of the products delivered, with all the related documents.
