9.1 Pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree No. 206/2005, the right of withdrawal applies exclusively to customers acting as consumers, namely natural persons acting for purposes unrelated to their professional or business activities.

  • orders placed by non-consumer customers and/or customers requesting an invoice;
  • orders for goods made to measure or clearly personalised;
  • orders for products liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
  • orders for sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to hygiene or health protection reasons and which have been opened after delivery.

Therefore, for hygiene and customer protection reasons, the right of withdrawal applies only to products purchased through the website that can be returned to Reverse and subsequently resold without posing any risk to consumers’ health, such as books, gadgets, kitchen utensils and similar items.
