All content on the site (texts, visuals, logos, layouts, structure) is protected by copyright and, where applicable, trademark law. Any reproduction or distribution without authorization is prohibited.
3. Liability
The information provided on the site is for reference only. ALBORE reserves the right to modify it at any time. The use of spearguns requires compliance with safety rules, local regulations, and best practices in the marine environment. The user remains solely responsible for their equipment and its use.
4. Terms & Conditions of Sale (TCS)
4.1. Purpose
These TCS govern the sale of handcrafted spearguns made by ALBORE, as well as any associated accessories. As most products are made to order, specifications, finishes, and lead times are detailed in the quotation.
4.2. Order & Quotation
- A detailed quotation (model, dimensions, finishes, accessories, VAT-inclusive price, estimated lead times) is provided to the client.
- The order is confirmed once the quotation is accepted and a deposit is paid (indicative example: 50 % — to be specified on the quotation).
- The remaining balance is due before shipping or upon hand delivery.
4.3. Pricing & Payment
Prices are indicated in euros including VAT (or excluding VAT where applicable) and may vary depending on options and materials. Accepted payment methods are specified in the quotation (bank transfer, etc.). Any order implies acceptance of the TCS.
4.4. Manufacturing & Delivery Time
Delivery times are provided as estimates on the quotation. Shipment is carried out according to the selected delivery method. Transport-related risks are covered under the carrier’s terms and conditions; it is the customer’s responsibility to make any necessary reservations in the event of damage. Any order destined for a country where its importation is prohibited or regulated may be refused or cancelled without engaging our liability. Personal hand delivery is subject to prior agreement regarding the location; failing this, delivery by carrier will apply and will be invoiced. Any applicable customs duties and local taxes remain the responsibility of the customer and are not included in the order price. Delays caused by carriers, customs authorities, or circumstances beyond our control shall not engage our liability. Shipping costs are determined at the time of invoicing according to the destination and the weight of the order. Orders are shipped from Corsica via tracked carriers, with tracking information provided upon dispatch. Responsibility is transferred to the customer once the order is handed over to the carrier. The customer is responsible for the accuracy of the delivery information provided. The item is delivered only after completion of manufacturing and full payment of the outstanding balance.
4.5. Right of Withdrawal
In accordance with Article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized (custom-made). For standard products (if applicable), the right of withdrawal may be exercised within 14 days from receipt, under the legal conditions in force.
4.6. Legal Guarantees
- Legal guarantee of conformity (Articles L217-3 and following of the French Consumer Code) for consumer clients.
- Guarantee against hidden defects (Articles 1641 and following of the French Civil Code).
Excluded from guarantees: normal wear, impacts, lack of maintenance, unauthorized modifications, improper storage, prolonged exposure to salt without rinsing, corrosion due to abnormal use in the marine environment, incorrect band/shaft combinations, over-tension, etc.
4.7. Repairability & After-Sales Service
Wear parts (bands, dyneema, shafts…) are replaceable. The workshop provides adjustment, maintenance, and repair services. Conditions (quotation, lead times) are communicated on a case-by-case basis.
4.8. Performance
Performance (range, speed, accuracy, perceived recoil) depends on the chosen configuration (length, band diameter and stretch coefficient, shaft mass, balance, reel, line, sea conditions, shooting technique). ALBORE provides recommendations but does not guarantee identical results in all conditions.
4.9. Rubber Bands
Rubber bands sold by the meter are cut according to the quantity ordered. In accordance with Article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code, they are not subject to the right of withdrawal, except in the event of a defect. Pre-rigged rubber bands are prepared according to the configuration chosen by the customer. They are considered personalized products and are not subject to the right of withdrawal, except in the event of a defect or non-conformity. In the event of a defect or non-conformity, the customer must contact ALBORE and provide supporting photos. After verification, a replacement or refund may be offered. ALBORE shall not be held liable in the event of misuse, incorrect assembly, or non-compliant use of the product.
