🇨🇭 Digitec Galaxus AG

Warranty information provided by the supplier

Digitec Galaxus AG receives the warranty details of the respective suppliers initially through the details in the Configuration Agreement, a contract form which each supplier fills out during the integration. By signing the Configuration Agreement, the information becomes binding.

The provisions in the Configuration Agreement apply in addition to the provisions in the FAQ. If a provision in the concluded Configuration Agreement contradicts the FAQs, the provisions of the Configuration Agreement shall apply.

Processes

Unless otherwise agreed in the Configuration Agreement, defective products follow the processes described below as a standard.

Standard process

Unless otherwise agreed, Digitec Galaxus AG will send warranty claims to the supplier's service centre without registration. An RMA delivery note (see appendix at the end of the article) and a proof of purchase will be delivered with the defective product.

If the warranty is rejected, the supplier will send a cost estimate to aftersales@digitecgalaxus.ch. Cost estimates are to be sent as PDF. The following information must be provided on the cost estimate:

  • Reason for refusing the guarantee

  • Work to be carried out

  • Cost estimate

  • Images in case of physical/mechanical damage

The Digitec Galaxus AG After Sales Team checks the decision makes the necessary clarifications and informs the Service Centre whether the product should be repaired at a charge, returned unrepaired or scrapped.

DOA process

After the visual inspection, Digitec Galaxus AG will exchange the product for the end customer. Within the period defined by the manufacturer, Digitec Galaxus AG sends the DOA case to the Service Centre with the note "DOA" on the delivery note.

Digitec Galaxus AG will receive a credit note from the supplier within 14 calendar days after receipt of the return to the amount of the original purchase price of the defective product.

Low cost process

Defective products with a purchase price below the low cost price threshold defined in the Configuration Agreement will be disposed of after a visual inspection by Digitec Galaxus AG. The supplier receives a monthly collective invoice for the purchase value of the disposed products. An Excel list with the disposed products (see example Excel at the end of the article) is also supplied. The defect descriptions are a copy of the defect descriptions that end customers enter in their customer accountaccounts. If not available, the defect description is recorded by the Digitec Galaxus AG store employees. After receiving the invoice, the supplier transfers the money by bank transfer.
