If this lasts for more than a month, the contract may be terminated by either party without compensation.
In case of delay in delivery beyond the time agreed, the user must request the Company to deliver within a time span appropriate to the circumstances and only if the goods are not delivered within this additional period, the user is entitled to terminate the contract. The above does not apply when the delivery within the agreed time is important, taking into account all the circumstances attending the conclusion of the contract, or if the user has informed the Company, before the conclusion of the contract, that delivery by a certain date is requested. In these cases, if the Company fails to deliver the goods at the time agreed, the consumer is entitled to terminate the contract immediately. Upon termination of the contract, the Company must return without undue delay, all funds paid under the contract.
The ownership of property is transferred after full payment of the purchase price. The risk of loss or damage to the goods passes on to the user when they or a third party indicated by them and other than the carrier, has acquired the physical possession of the goods. However, the risk passes to the user upon delivery to the carrier, if the user has requested the goods to be transferred by a carrier of their choice and not the carrier service offered by the Company.

The user must, in this case, return with a medium of his choice at his own expense, the goods to the Company without undue delay and in any event within 14 calendar days from the day the above notification has been sent. The user is only responsible for any loss of value of property resulting from the handling which was not necessary to determine the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Returned goods should be in excellent condition, in their original packaging (box, nylon, foam, which should not have cracks or damage / lesions) and with all the original package contents (printed leaflet features and guarantees, cable connections, software installation etc). The Company may withhold reimbursement until it receives the goods or until the user provides the Company with evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever occurs first. The user may return the goods in person by visiting any physical store.

Goods not suitable for return for reasons of hygiene (eg cosmetics), cannot be returned without their original seal, as well as audiovisual and software material (CD, DVD etc) without their original seal. Otherwise, the existing provisions of Law 2251/1994 on cancellation are in effect.
Alternatively, if the user does not wish to terminate the contract, they are entitled within the same aforementioned withdrawal period (14 days of delivery, etc.), to replace any goods ordered with a different item in the same condition as above, without, in this case, being charged (the user) with new shipping costs.
The rights of cancellation, withdrawal or replacement should not be confused with the case of defective goods, as they are covered by their respective warranties.

How can I pay?
We accept most major credit/debit cards
What is a card security code (CSC)?
The CSC (or CVV/CCV/CV2 number) on your credit/debit card is a security measure banks require for all transactions where the cardholder is not present and a PIN cannot be used. Since the security code is listed on your card and not stored anywhere else, the only way to know the correct number is to physically have possession of the card itself.
Most credit/debit cards display the three digit code on the back of the card, after the card number in the signature strip. Apart from AMEX cards which have a four digit security code which is located on the front side of the card.
