The “spedizionecomoda.com” site allows documents, parcels, pallets, and garments with special characteristics (“non-standard shipping”) to be sent within the national territory, or to be shipped from Italy to abroad, via an efficient interface and without the need to register with the site in advance.
Placing an order
The placing of the order consists of four steps.
1) Order. The user enters in the online form the starting location in Italy, the shipping location (including country, if abroad), the type of shipment (parcel, pallet, or “non-standard”) the weight and the dimensions (height, width, depth).
2) Summary. This step asks for a) the sender's first name, b) the surname, c) the email address, d) the collection date. You are also given the opportunity to add an arbitrary number of items. You are asked to enter the pick-up address (sender's first and last name, location, pick-up address, sender's telephone, additional notes). You are asked to enter the shipping address (recipient's full name, email, location, shipping address, recipient's phone, additional notes), and finally to accept these terms and conditions.
A preview of all entered details is displayed below.
3) Payment. Payment information is requested: credit card number, expiry month and year, control code. First and last name of the card holder (may be different from the sender).
4) Order confirmation. Once payment has been made, the order is considered finalised and is taken delivery of. This is the moment when the contract is formally concluded.
5) The user receives the shipping documents at the indicated e-mail box. They must be printed in three copies, one to be attached to the goods to be shipped, one to be signed by the courier and retained as a receipt, and one to be given to the courier if requested. These documents may include the customs invoice where applicable. In the same communication, the user receives the order number with which they can track the shipment via the contact form on the website (indicating the order number) or by sending an email to info@spedizionecomoda.com.
Correctness of information provided and penalties
When signing the order, the user is fully responsible for the data entered. In particular, he/she agrees to bear the additional costs if the weight of the shipment or its dimensions exceed the declared values, to the extent that these are charged by the carrier to the forwarding agent, and for all additional storage, handling, warehousing costs related to the actual weight and dimensions in excess of those declared.
We therefore advise our users to enter the weight and size values on the site always considering them in excess, especially in the case of decimal values. The volumetric weight of the shipment is calculated automatically by the spedizionecomoda.com website, while the weight and dimensions of the packaging must always be included in the calculation of the weight and dimensions reported.
The user also bears the additional transport and logistical-administrative costs in connection with the entry of incorrect shipment data, e.g. in connection with destination and consignee data, and insofar as these additional costs are charged by the carrier to the forwarding agent.
Order revocation by the forwarder
In order to fulfil the dispatch mandate granted by the user as efficiently and quickly as possible, the order shall be deemed to have been accepted at the time of purchase and at the same time as the dispatch documents (containing in particular the order number) are sent by the forwarding agent to the sender, and the contract shall be deemed to have been concluded at the same time.
However, the forwarder is entitled to unilaterally revoke the mandate “for good cause”, i.e. in particular if, due to any intervening circumstances, he finds that he is unable to fulfil the mandate for the benefit of the agent in relation to the purpose of the mandate.
In this case he shall inform the forwarder without delay and, if possible, produce documentation regarding the impediment. In the event of revocation of the order for good cause, the forwarder shall not be obliged to pay any damages for the benefit of the user, except for full reimbursement of the cost of the order already paid by the user.
Delivery deadline and delay
The user explicitly releases the contractor from liability for delay, including liability of an extra-contractual nature, except for full reimbursement of the order placed.
If, in accordance with Article 1457 of the Civil Code, the delivery period constitutes an essential part of the shipment, the user is obliged to explicitly notify the forwarding agent of this, in this case by means of the “Additional Notes” box in step 2) of the order dispatch.
The forwarder in this case may send the user notice of revocation of the mandate, which shall be deemed revoked for cause pursuant to Article 1727 of the Civil Code, if the agent finds that he is unable to fulfil the mandate by promptly notifying the user.
At the same time, the forwarder transfers the total amount already paid for the order to the user.
Order cancellation or modification
The user may cancel or modify the order before the goods have been delivered to the recipient (and thus before the shipping service has been fulfilled).
In all cases of cancellation or modification of the order the user is obliged to pay the associated costs: if the user wishes to cancel the order and the cancellation takes place before the goods have been taken over by the carrier, the user is obliged to reimburse the agent for the administrative costs; if the cancellation of the order takes place after the goods have been taken over by the carrier it will be understood as a modification of the order, with return of the goods to the sender, for which the user will be obliged to pay administrative costs, original shipment costs, and additional costs of returning the shipment.
The administrative costs of cancellation or modification of the order are similar to those that are normally charged to the user for a shipping order: the shipper undertakes not to impose administrative costs related to the cancellation or modification of the order that are more than twice as high as those normally charged to the user when purchasing a shipping order (included in the total price of the shipment).
Shipment not collected
The carrier normally makes up to three delivery attempts. After each unsuccessful delivery attempt, the forwarding agent will ask the user for instructions (i.e. he will make a form available to the user to send his own instructions in the reserved area of the site) in order to facilitate the delivery of the goods by the carrier.
If all attempts to deliver the goods are unsuccessful, the goods shall be stored for 5 working days at the nearest carrier's agreed centre, at the end of which time, if the goods are not collected by the addressee or by another person appointed by the user, the spedizionecomoda.com website reserves the right to return the goods to the sender at the user's expense, with the charge of the costs relating to an equivalent order placed on the same spedizionecomoda.com website, plus any associated administrative costs (for the amount of these costs, the same provisions as in the section “Cancellation or modification of the order” shall apply) or to place the goods in storage at a centre at its own discretion for a maximum period of three months until this debt (including the costs of storage) is paid by the user.
Where the carrier commissioned by the contractor provides for even partial reimbursement of transport costs in the event of non-collection or delayed delivery, such reimbursement shall be notified to the user and subtracted from the cost of returning the goods, if any, incurred by the latter.
International Shipments
The site spedizionecomoda.com allows the sending of international shipments. If the type of goods sent requires customs clearance, it is the user's responsibility to deliver all documentation for customs clearance of the goods to the spedizionecomoda.com website, and to the carrier upon collection.
You warrant that the documentation provided is complete, authentic, free of irregularities, accurately and truthfully reflects the contents of the shipment, is sufficient for customs clearance, and complies with applicable regulations.
The user accepts the payment of any customs fee, customs amount, duty, warehouse amount, penalty, connected with the customs clearance of the goods as a result of the requests of the competent Authority. He also agrees to provide, at his own cost and expense, additional documentation that may be requested by the competent authority in the course of the customs clearance process.
The user also assumes full civil and criminal liability if the information provided is incomplete, not accurate to the content of the shipment, false, if the customs clearance documentation has any irregularities, or if it does not comply with applicable regulations.
The user expressly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the spedizionecomoda.com website in each of these circumstances and to assume all civil and criminal penalties associated therewith.
For the reference legislation on the regulation of international shipments, see section “Reference Legislation”.
Packaging of goods
The goods must be packaged according to
I) the guidelines of the spedizionecomoda.com website
II) any indications sent by the site at the time or at the same time as the order is placed
III) in a manner consistent with the following criteria:
1) Packaging must be carried out in such a way as to adequately protect the goods in relation to their nature and material characteristics.
2) the packaging must permit handling by the carrier without hindrance, i.e. the goods must be entirely contained in the relevant packaging and must not include moving parts or parts that are separated, even partially, from the packaging.
3) Packaging must prevent any damage to persons or property during all stages of transport.
4) If the goods consist of several items, all items must be packaged accordingly.
5) If the user chooses the “pallet” type of shipment, all items of which the shipment consists must be stacked solidly on the pallet platform and packed together as a unit.
If the goods are not properly packaged, even if accepted by the carrier at the time of collection, you may not claim reimbursement. The determination of the correctness of the packaging is made by the carrier and the insurer, and the principal and agent abide by their decision.
Prohibited goods and goods not covered by insurance
There are certain types of goods that spedizionecomoda.com does not accept for shipment under any circumstances (prohibited items) and others that, although they may be shipped via our service, are not covered by insurance.
The complete list of prohibited articles can be found at this page.
The full list of items that can be shipped but are not covered by the insurance policy can be found on the prohibited articles.
Prohibited articles fall into two categories: those whose dispatch is prohibited by law or which require special precautions in order to be carried out (e.g. weapons, animals, foodstuffs) or those which are prohibited in connection with our service.
In both cases, the user who makes use of our dispatch service acknowledges that he/she may incur criminal and civil penalties for false declarations.
If spedizionecomoda.com encounters a shipment of a prohibited good of the second type, it will act as follows: if the carrier is licensed to transport the goods and the goods can be transported and delivered without prejudice, it will not interrupt the implementation of the service, but reserves the right to retaliate against the user for misrepresentation, will prohibit the user from the subsequent use of the website and the service offered by it, and will ask the user to pay the additional administrative costs.
With respect to the shipment of articles of the first type, in addition to the claim for misrepresentation, the user shall indemnify spedizionecomoda.com for any penalties, criminal and civil damages (including moral damages) arising out of and in connection with the shipment of prohibited articles (e.g. with respect to damages suffered by other physical or legal entities involved in the shipment).
Also in this case, the goods will not be sent to their destination or returned to the sender, but placed in storage at the user's expense pending instructions from the judicial authority.
Damage to goods and reimbursement
Damage to the goods must be reported to the carrier upon receipt of the goods, as well as at the same time to the forwarding agent, or, if the goods were initially received without reservation, damage to the goods must be reported to the forwarding agent within 8 days from the date of receipt if the shipment was made domestically, in accordance with Art. 1698 of the Civil Code, within 7 days from the date of receipt if the shipment was made internationally by land (in accordance with the “Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road”, CMR) and within 21 days from the date of receipt if the shipment was made internationally by air (in accordance with the “Warsaw Convention” or the “Montreal Convention”).
For the user to be able to claim reimbursement, the damage must be directly attributable to carriage, and the goods and packaging must be made available to the carrier, freight forwarder or insurer for inspection and appraisal. The user may not claim reimbursement if the goods have not been properly packed (see section “Packing of goods”) even if the carrier has taken charge of the goods at the time of collection.
The refund also includes lost or stolen goods.
The user is only entitled to reimbursement in the event of delay if, at the time of the order, the essentiality of the deadline has been communicated (i.e., the user has informed the spedizionecomoda.com website that he intends to ship the goods only if there is a guarantee that they will arrive by a certain date) and if the contractor has not renounced the mandate, with consequent revocation of the contract, because of this clause and before the shipment has been taken over.
In the event of late delivery, the liability of spedizionecomoda.com is limited to the reimbursement of the cost of the delivery service purchased on our site.
Reimbursement for shipments not covered by insurance
The amount of reimbursement for goods not covered by insurance varies depending on whether the shipment is national or international, and whether it is by land or by air (since the relevant regulations vary).
For domestic shipments, whether by land or air, reference is made to Article 10 of Legislative Decree No. 286 of 21 November 2005, which provides for the reimbursement of 1 euro per kg of transported goods if damaged, lost or damaged.
If the shipment is international and by air, the reimbursement for loss, damage or damage is set, in accordance with the Warsaw Convention, at a maximum of approximately 20 euros per kg.
If the shipment is international and by land, the reimbursement for loss or damage is instead set, in accordance with the “Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road” (CMR) at a maximum of approximately 10 euros per kg.
In all cases, the maximum amount reimbursable is EUR 100.
We recommend taking out insurance cover to protect goods shipped via our site that exceed these values.
Insurance coverage
Since reimbursement without insurance cover is low for most shipments, it is recommended to take out insurance cover when placing your order.
Insurance cover is not provided by default when the order is signed, nor is it automatically assigned when the order is taken, and it must be explicitly selected or requested by the user.
In order for you to be eligible for compensation, the damage must be directly attributable to the transport, and for this reason both the sender and the receiver agree to make goods and packaging available for inspection or appraisal.
The criteria adopted for the regulation of insurance cover are as follows:
1) The maximum amount of insurance cover is set at € 5,000.00
2) The user is obliged to insure the goods in relation to the actual market value, taking into account the fact that any damage compensation made by the insurer shall not exceed the actual value of the goods at the time of dispatch.
3) If the estimate is lower than the actual value, the loss is covered in proportion to the insured value of the goods (see Art. 1907 of the Civil Code).
4) The policy, even if it has been taken out by the user, is not valid if the goods are a) on the list of “prohibited articles”, b) on the list of uninsurable articles (if provided by the site) c) on the list of “articles prohibited in international shipments” if the shipment involves customs clearance of the goods, and d) on the list of “articles prohibited in air transport shipments” if the shipment involves only one air transport leg, whether international or domestic.
5) Damage coverage is limited to the value of the goods or part thereof, but does not include indirect or consequential damage resulting from damage, delay or loss of the goods shipped, or damage resulting from non-performance of obligations and warranties owed by the user in accordance with this contract.
Compensation shall be made on the basis of the purchase invoice of the goods (if the goods were purchased at the same time as shipment or if the goods were collected by the forwarding agent within 30 days of the date of purchase) or on the basis of an appraisal of the value of the goods to be carried out by you or the insurer. If the goods are not new, the compensation shall be equivalent to the lesser amount between replacement and repair of the goods.€
Disclaimers and other contractual provisions
1) ShippingComoda.co.uk does not accept goods on delivery.
2) Given the lists of “prohibited articles” (articles the shipment of which is prohibited in all cases) “articles prohibited in international shipments” (articles that can only be shipped to and from Italy), “articles prohibited in airfreight shipments” (articles that cannot be shipped on an air carrier due to the provisions relating to that carrier) and “uninsurable articles”, if provided by the site (articles for which an insurance policy cannot be taken out) the user/sender who contravenes these provisions does so at his/her own risk and assumes the associated civil and criminal liability: in each of the cases listed, the user shall indemnify the shipper for any liability, loss and damage (including any legal costs) incurred by the latter.
3) Pursuant to arts. 2755, 2761 and 2769 of the Civil Code, the forwarder shall have a lien on the goods for the collection of any debts contracted by the user against him. The forwarder shall make use of this right in cases where the goods cannot be delivered to the addressee (due to the addressee's unavailability, or due to the occurrence of additional shipping costs required by the competent authority for the legal transport of the goods that the user does not intend to bear) and if the user has not paid the costs for the return of the goods (including storage costs) within three months of the notification of storage. After the expiry of the three-month period, the forwarder shall assert a lien on the goods only to the extent of the debt incurred by the user towards the user, with transfer of the remaining amount to the user if the value of the goods exceeds the debt owed to the user (including storage costs), or he reserves the right to initiate ordinary legal proceedings to protect his claim if it exceeds the value of the goods.
4) Given that the agent (the site spedizionecomoda.com) is obliged to carry out the shipping assignment conferred by the principal (the user of the site who purchases a shipping service offered by it) with diligence, following the indications of the principal and keeping the latter informed of the shipping status, the agent is not directly responsible for the carrier's service, even if it has been chosen unilaterally by the agent. Nonetheless, spedizionecomoda.com, in accordance with art. 1718 of the Civil Code, undertakes to protect the rights of the principal with respect to the carrier, including the right that the principal retains to act directly against the carrier (as the agent's substitute) in the event of damage, loss or damage attributable to the carrier.
5) The website spedizionecomoda.com is not responsible for delays, loss (including non-delivery) or damage to the goods caused by fortuitous and unforeseeable events, such as (the list is by way of example and is not exhaustive) natural events (fires, snow, storms, earthquakes, etc.), force majeure (accidents, strikes, airspace alerts, terrorist attacks, etc.), disruptions in the national or international transport network; criminal acts of third parties such as theft, robbery, arson; and any other unforeseeable or fortuitous cause outside the responsibility of the shipper or a third party.), upheavals in the national or international transport network; criminal acts of third parties such as theft, robbery, arson; and any other unforeseeable or fortuitous cause outside the responsibility of the forwarder or his substitute, which may delay or prevent the performance of the service.
6) The site spedizionecomoda.com shall not be liable for acts or omissions of either the sender (user of the site spedizionecomoda.com or who in his stead is responsible for the delivery of the goods to the carrier by the user) or the consignee, which are the cause of delay, loss or damage to the goods being shipped. Such acts shall include failure to comply with the obligations of the user as outlined in this contract and as indicated by spedizionecomoda.com.
In particular, the user is obliged to
(a) provide the shipper with complete and correct shipping information (including the existence of the consignee at the given address and verification that the consignee is able to receive the goods).
The user must also ensure that:
(b) the documents accompanying the shipment (also referred to as “consignment note”) where required, are complete, authentic and formally and legally correct
c) the shipment has been packed in accordance with the provisions of this contract, and as indicated on the spedizionecomoda.com website, and that both the packaging and the contents do not have any inherent defects that would affect its carriage;
d) the goods being shipped are not on the list of prohibited articles on our site (with reference to the scope of each) and do not contravene the provisions of the ADR (European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) Regulations RID (International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail), ADN (Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways), IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) and IATA (International Air Transport Association) where applicable.
(e) where the shipment involves the transport of personal data, all measures have been taken to ensure its security and confidentiality during transport.
7) With reference to Art. 1419 of the Civil Code, the partial nullity of this contract (i.e. if one of its provisions proves not to be in conformity with the law in force) does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this contract.
8) By subscribing to any of our shipping services, the user agrees to indemnify and hold spedizionecomoda.com, the carrier(s) in charge of the shipment, or other substitute agent, harmless from any claim that a third party interested in the shipment or the subject merchandise may make against spedizionecomoda.com, the carrier, or other party involved in the provision of the service. In the event that a third party interested in any way in the shipment, or in the goods that are the subject of the shipment, files a complaint with the competent authorities, the user shall bear the costs for the protection of the shipper, the carrier, and other parties involved in the provision of the service.
9) By subscribing to one of our shipping services, you agree to indemnify spedizionecomoda.com against all civil and criminal liability, including legal fees and costs, which spedizionecomoda.com may incur against third parties or against you arising out of your breach (or that of a user delegate involved by you in one or more stages of shipping) of the provisions or warranties which you are obliged to comply with under the terms of this contract.
10) The spedizionecomoda.com website shall not be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages (by way of example but not limited to: damages in the personal or professional sphere, such as loss of profit, reputation, investment, opportunity) arising from the performance of the shipping service and any other service provided through the website.
