The general terms and conditions of sale (“GTC”) detailed below outline the rights and obligations of the company GOLFERS WORLD, headquartered at 2 rue Charles Christofle, 93200 Saint-Denis, France, and any customer in the context of the sale of golf structure equipment and golf player equipment.
They always apply unless otherwise agreed in writing. The customer’s validation of the order implies that they have read these GTC and accept them without reservation or exemption.
1) PRICES:
Our prices are exclusive of taxes (excl. VAT), ex-warehouse. Our goods are invoiced based on the price list in effect on the day of delivery. Our prices may vary depending on economic conditions, particularly fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and supply costs (customs duties, air or sea transport, etc.).
2) TRANSPORT AND CLAIMS:
Free shipping: For any order exceeding €300 excl. VAT net and €1,000 excl. VAT net for practice balls and mats, deliverable in mainland France, except for bulky items (e.g., ball dispensers). Free shipping applies to a single delivery location per order.
Our goods travel at the recipient’s risk. It is their responsibility to safeguard their rights with respect to the carrier in accordance with Articles 105 and subsequent of the French Commercial Code. The recipient must notify the carrier by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within 48 hours.
Any complaint not related to transport must be submitted by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within 8 days following receipt of the goods.
Return of goods: Items that conform to the order will not be accepted for return. Any return is subject to prior written agreement. Any credit note issued for returned goods will be reduced by 20% to cover depreciation, losses, and repackaging. Return shipments with postage due will not be accepted.
3) RETENTION OF OWNERSHIP CLAUSE:
Delivered goods remain the full property of the seller until full payment of their price. In this regard, the mere delivery of a check or a bill of exchange does not constitute payment. Only the actual settlement of the amount is considered payment. However, from the time of delivery, the buyer assumes responsibility for the goods, with possession entailing the transfer of risks.
Failure to pay any installment will result in the immediate payment of the total outstanding amount.
4) PAYMENT TERMS:
Until an account is opened, full upfront payment is required. After acceptance of the account opening request, our invoices are payable by check or bank transfer within 30 days from the invoice date or by direct debit at 45 days end of month, limited to 60 net days.
A 1% discount will be granted for any payment made within 8 days from the invoice date. Any amount unpaid by the due date indicated on the invoice will incur a penalty equal to the refinancing rate of the European Central Bank plus 10%, along with a fixed compensation of €40 per invoice. In accordance with Article L441-6 of the French Commercial Code, the penalty is due without the need for a reminder.
Failure to pay any due installment will result in either the payment of penalties, the immediate collection of all outstanding amounts, the suspension of all deliveries, the cancellation of any sale, or the refusal of any new order. Any unpaid fees, regardless of the reason, will be systematically invoiced.
Two instances of payment default will result in a change of payment method, which will be automatically modified to “payment before delivery.”
If regulatory changes affect the amount of this fixed compensation, the new amount will automatically replace the one stated in these general terms and conditions of sale or payment conditions.
5) DISPUTES:
Any dispute shall fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Seine-Saint-Denis, France.
