Users are therefore encouraged to regularly consult the dedicated section.
2.4 The offer and sale of Products through the Site constitute a distance contract governed by Articles 45 et seq. of Legislative Decree No. 206 of 6 September 2005, as amended (Consumer Code), and by Legislative Decree No. 70 of 9 April 2003, containing provisions on electronic commerce.

Purchase via the Website
3.1 Purchase of Products through the Site is permitted for Users who are consumers pursuant to Article 3, paragraph 1, letter a) of the Consumer Code, as well as Users who are not consumers, provided they are at least 18 years old. To verify the minimum age required by law, Archivio Crepax S.r.l. reserves the right to request the tax code or other identification document. If the User is under 18, they will be prevented from completing the purchase process and submitting the order. In any case, if for any reason, including technical reasons, the purchase order is sent, it will be immediately canceled pursuant to Article 1456 of the Civil Code, given its contradiction with the General Terms of Sale and/or applicable law. The User will be promptly informed via email of the order cancellation, and if payment has already been made, Archivio Crepax S.r.l. will refund the Total Amount Due, including the product price, shipping costs (if applied), and any other additional fees indicated in the order form, according to the payment method used.

Products
4.1 Products offered include, by way of example, books, lithographs, prints, design objects, fashion and beauty items, jewelry, stationery, gift ideas, handcrafted items, and other original editorial products related to the work of Guido Crepax.
4.2 All descriptions, images, and prices are carefully updated, but errors or changes may occur without notice.
4.3 Each Product is accompanied by a Product Sheet. Images and descriptions on the Site aim to faithfully reproduce the Products. However, colors, dimensions, and other product features may differ from reality due to user device settings. Images are therefore indicative, with standard tolerances. For contractual purposes, the Product description in the order confirmation prevails.
4.4 Some products offered on the shop are vintage items, which may show signs of wear, minor imperfections, or defects due to age and previous use. These features are part of the product’s unique value and character and are not considered defects under applicable law. By purchasing, the Customer expressly accepts this condition.
Product Availability
5.1 Products offered on the Site are those displayed on the homepage and/or within the various pages of the Site at the time of the User’s order.
5.2 Product availability is shown on each Product Sheet and is continuously monitored and updated. Because multiple Users may visit the Site simultaneously, more than one User may attempt to purchase the same Product at the same time. In such cases, the Product may appear available briefly, even if it is actually out of stock or not immediately available.
Prices and Payments
6.1 Product prices are expressed in Euros and include Value Added Tax (VAT).
6.2 Archivio Crepax S.r.l. reserves the right to change Product prices at any time without notice. However, the price charged to the User is the one indicated at the time of the order and does not reflect subsequent price changes, except in cases where listed prices are clearly inconsistent with the normal market price due to obvious material errors.
6.3 If a Product is offered at a discounted price, the Product Sheet will indicate (i) the original reference price, (ii) the discount percentage applied, and (iii) the resulting discounted price. The original reference price is the price at which the Product was previously offered on the Site.
6.4 Payment for Products purchased on the Site can be made via credit card or PayPal.
6.5 Payment must be completed at the time of the order.

Risk of loss or damage not attributable to Archivio Crepax S.r.l. transfers to the User when they (or a designated third party other than the carrier) take possession of the Products, except where loss or damage is caused by gross negligence or intentional misconduct of the carrier. Partial loss or damage not recognizable at delivery must be reported within 8 days. If the package shows signs of tampering, the User is advised to accept delivery with reservation and notify Archivio Crepax S.r.l. promptly.
