4.2 Mantovani undertakes to ensure that the description and/or photographic representation of the Goods on the Site is as faithful as possible to the Goods themselves.

However, taking into account the fact that the quality of the images may depend on the computer tools used by the Buyer, it is possible that the Buyer's perception of the description or photographic representation of the Goods may not correspond exactly to the Goods themselves, so that the images and videos accompanying the presentation of the Goods must be considered to be published on the Site for descriptive purposes only.

4.3 In the event that the Goods delivered are ascertained to be faulty or different from those ordered, Mantovani undertakes to provide the Customer with a legal guarantee of conformity, to be exercised under the conditions and terms set out in articles 128 et seq. of Legislative Decree No. 206/2005.

4.5 Expenses relating to the return and/or replacement of Goods as a result of the exercise of the guarantee shall be borne by Mantovani.
