The Customer undertakes, if necessary, to point out to third parties the retention of title of Sportscards Belgium, e.g., to anyone who would seize the items not yet fully paid for.
Article 7: Right of withdrawal
The provisions of this article only apply to Customers who purchase items online from Sportscards Belgium in their capacity as consumers.
The Customer has the right to withdraw from the agreement within a period of 14 calendar days without stating reasons.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer must inform Sportscards Belgium, Steenweg Op Gelrode 28, 3110 Rotselaar, Belgium, info@sportscards.be, via an unambiguous statement (e.g., in writing by post, fax or e-mail) of his decision to revoke the agreement.

If the returned product is in any way diminished in value, Sportscards Belgium reserves the right to hold the Customer liable and claim compensation for any loss in value of the goods resulting from the use of the goods by the Customer that goes beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods.

In the case of sales contracts, Sportscards Belgium may withhold reimbursement until it has received all the goods back, or until the Customer has demonstrated that he has returned the goods, whichever comes first.
Any additional costs resulting from the Customer’s choice of a method of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by Sportscards Belgium will not be refunded.
Sportscards Belgium will refund the Customer with the same payment method with which the Customer made the original transaction, unless the Customer has expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, the Customer will not be charged for such reimbursement.
