PRODUCT INFORMATION AND PRICE
RVAB has the right to change prices, charge extra costs, and change product information at any time without prior notice. Product images and other information aim to reflect the product as accurately as possible. However, we reserve the right for any errors and deficiencies that may occur on the websites and cannot guarantee that all images and videos fully and accurately reflect the product's appearance.
All prices on our websites are stated including VAT in accordance with applicable legislation. The prices for ordered goods are those stated on the day the order is placed. If an order is to be sent to a delivery address outside the EU, the current VAT rate will be deducted on the payment page. Please note that any import duties and taxes may apply, which are charged when the shipment reaches the delivery address. You are solely responsible for paying such import duties and taxes. These fees and costs vary for different countries, which is why RVAB can neither control them nor foresee their size.
OFFERS
RVAB sometimes offers various types of campaigns and benefits on the websites, such as lower product prices, reduced delivery costs, changed payment terms, or extended right of withdrawal. These more favorable terms apply as long as the current campaign is active and only for goods and services specified by us. We reserve the right to revoke campaigns at any time. Upon termination or revocation of a campaign, these terms apply without changes. Offers may apply for a limited time and while stocks last or with other similar reservations.
GIFT CARDS
RVAB sometimes offers gift cards in various denominations. If the full value is not used at the time of purchase, the remaining amount is forfeited. Digital gift cards, however, are valid on our websites for one or more purchases until the full amount is used. When you buy, receive, or use a gift card, the same terms apply as when purchasing a product, which means that other ordering procedures are also the same. Physical gift cards are not personal and can be transferred. If you transfer the card, you must inform the recipient that they are bound by our terms and that the card with any codes is a valuable document that should be stored securely.
A gift card cannot be redeemed for cash, and refunds can only be made in accordance with your legal rights and then only to the purchaser of the card.
The gift card is normally valid for 12 months from the date of purchase (or as stated on the digital gift card), and once the balance is used up, the card or its code cannot be used or reloaded.
DELIVERY
DELIVERIES AND CANCELLATIONS
RVAB primarily delivers its products within the Nordic countries, and geographical differences may occur. Deliveries are made in cooperation with our partner Shipit and their distributor partners in each region and country. Depending on the value of your order, your desired delivery address, and your desired delivery method, shipping costs may apply. These are usually indicated in connection with your order. Depending on previous choices, you will also receive different types of notifications for the status of your delivery, including when and where it will be available for collection.
You have the right to cancel an order and return goods by contacting our customer and consumer service, or by using the contact form on our websites. This must be done within 14 days of you or your agent receiving the ordered goods. The cost and risk of transporting returned goods are incumbent upon you. If you experience an unusually delayed delivery and therefore no longer wish to complete the purchase, it is your responsibility to cancel the order. However, if the shipment has already been dispatched, you must accept the order. A cancellation is not valid until confirmation has been received from RVAB via email. If a product is no longer sold, we have the right to cancel the purchase and issue a refund.

COMPLAINTS
RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL AND RETURN
When purchasing goods on any of our websites, a 14-day right of withdrawal always applies in accordance with current consumer protection legislation. This means you have the right to cancel your purchase by notifying RVAB within 14 days from the date you or your representative received the ordered item. The right of withdrawal does not apply if the product's seal has been broken, for products that can quickly deteriorate or have passed their best-before date, products purchased from our outlet, products manufactured specifically according to your instructions, or if all product labels are not intact.
When exercising the right of withdrawal, you pay the return shipping and an administration fee, totaling SEK 195, and are responsible for the condition of the goods after receipt and during return shipping. A canceled purchase must be notified to RVAB and is not valid until confirmation has been received from RVAB via email. This must be done within 14 days from the date you received the goods. The goods must be well packaged, in good condition, and in their original packaging. We will then promptly refund the amount via the chosen payment method, provided there are no obstacles to such a refund. However, no later than 14 days after you notified us of the canceled purchase.
COMPLAINTS
It is important that you carefully examine the product when you receive it. If your item was damaged during transport, you must report this as soon as possible to us or according to the carrier information you received. This applies regardless of whether it is a visible damage or not. If, after receiving the item, you discover that it is damaged or does not correspond to the item you ordered, you must contact us within 14 days. Any complaints should be made to RVAB's customer and consumer service via our contact form. Provide us with your order number and the reason for your complaint, and we will get back to you with further instructions on returning the item and possible compensation. Defective products returned to RVAB should be handled with care and as if they were flawless. Write "Complaint about purchase" as the subject line and on the shipment itself for any return. Regardless of the reason for return, it is of great importance that the product is packaged so that it cannot be damaged during transport. If a returned product has no defects, we will, by agreement, return the product to you. If an item needs to be exchanged, this will be done for an item of equivalent type or by agreement between us. If a certain product is no longer available, you are entitled to a refund.
WARRANTY
For those of our products that are not food items, such as kitchen utensils, warranty conditions generally apply for 1 year from the date of purchase (as a private person, you are also covered by the Consumer Sales Act). The warranty covers manufacturing defects in the product itself, provided they have not arisen as a result of improper handling. If you want a replacement product covered by the warranty, please use our contact form. Here you need to provide your name, address, order number, and a detailed description of the defect. Write "Warranty claim" as the subject heading and on the shipment itself for any return. Defects must be reported within a reasonable time after you receive the item. The return shipment is paid by RVAB. If we do not find any of the defects you specified, the product will be returned to you, or otherwise as specifically agreed between us. This warranty entitles you to a free replacement item in accordance with the terms stated here and within the specified time period, and must not limit your legal rights.
