The Agent, at its sole discretion, may unilaterally determine and periodically update both the list of Goods in the Catalog and the data regarding each Good, based on information collected by the Agent about Goods sold by Sellers, sale prices, etc. Descriptions, names, and trademarks of Goods in the Catalog are not a public offer to sell the Goods to Users.

- actions that are related to organizing delivery of the Goods specified in the Order to the User at a pickup point or via courier delivery to an address as specified in the Order confirmed by the Agent.

2.6. The Order becomes mandatory for performance only upon the Order’s confirmation by the Agent.
2.7. Upon placing the Order, the Customer instructs the Agent to unilaterally cease to perform the Order, at the Agent’s discretion, at any time (including after Order’s confirmation by the Agent) in case of:
(a) unavailability of the Good specified in the Order in stock with the relevant Seller (including unavailability at the price specified in the Order);
(b) pricing errors for the Good;
(c) refusal by the Seller with whom the Agent concludes the sales contract under Section 2.8.1 of these Terms, to deliver the Good specified in the Order for any reason, or violation by such Seller of conditions for delivering the Good specified in the Order, which prevents the Agent from fulfilling its obligations to the Customer within the amount paid by the Customer;
(d) existence of any legal restrictions (including imposition of sanctions);
(e) actions by third parties that hinder the Agent from performing the User’s instruction (including actions by government agencies, counterparties, and other persons affecting Order execution).
The User agrees that the occurrence of the above circumstances is beyond the Agent’s reasonable control and at no fault of the Agent and constitutes objective impossibility for the Agent to fulfill the Order. In case of such rejection or cancellation of the Order by the Agent, no liability measures may be applied against the Agent.
2.8. In accordance with Section 2.5 of these Terms, the User confirms their agreement that once the Order is confirmed by the Agent, the Agent is authorized to perform, among other things, the following legal and actual actions on behalf of the User and in the interest of and at the expense of the User:
2.8.1. to conclude a retail sales contract for the Goods specified in the Order with a Seller (including actions for searching for the Seller and conducting negotiations), as well as perform actions related to payment for the Goods and the Goods’ delivery from the Seller to the Agent within Türkiye for further transportation of the Goods to the Customer in Russia.
2.8.2. to conclude an agreement with a foreign and/or Russian entity (entities) (including the Customs Representative) for organizing delivery of Goods to the territory of Russia from Türkiye and performing accompanying actions required for delivery to the Customer (including, without limitation: transportation, forwarding of Goods using any type of transport, temporary storage, sorting, and actions related to customs clearance of Goods for import into the territory of Russia, etc.), as well as perform actions related to payment for such services.
2.8.3. to perform other actions necessary for Order execution, including concluding a contract with a Russian entity for organizing delivery of Goods within the territory of Russia via courier service or to a pickup point at the address specified in the Order confirmed by the Agent, after completion of customs procedures and release of Goods by customs authorities.
2.9. The Agent is granted with the right to unilaterally and promptly change the final pickup point to the nearest available alternative in case of impossibility to deliver the Goods to the pickup point initially specified in the Order (including closure, overcrowding, cessation of activity), provided that the User is notified of the new pickup location via available communication methods.
2.10. The User confirms and agrees that the retail sales contract for the Goods specified in Section 2.8.1 of these Terms is governed by the laws applicable to such contract. The purchase of Goods is carried out on the territory of Türkiye. Since the Seller is a non-resident and located outside the territory of the Russian Federation, provisions of Russian law on consumer protection may not apply to such contract and related relations between the User and the Seller.
2.11. The Agent is not the seller of the Goods and acts solely based on the User’s instructions in accordance with these Terms and the relevant Order. In no event shall the Agent become the owner of Goods being purchased from the Seller; the ownership to the Goods is transferred from the Seller to the User in accordance with the terms of the relevant sales contract concluded by the Agent according to Section 2.8.1 of the Terms.
Since the Agent does not become the owner of the Goods under the sales contract specified in Section 2.8.1 of these Terms and is not the seller of the Goods, the Agent is not authorized to accept claims or complaints from the User regarding return or replacement of Goods of proper quality or hidden defects, etc. The User may address such claims, complaints, and notifications directly to the respective Seller with whom the Agent concludes the sales contract in the interests of the User. The Agent does not bear obligations related to return of Goods or refund of the price of Goods, except in cases directly specified in these Terms.
2.12. By placing an Order, the User confirms, understands, declares, and agrees that the User is not acting as an individual entrepreneur and is not placing the Order in the course of entrepreneurial activity, but rather placing the Order with the intention of purchasing the relevant Goods exclusively for personal, family, household, and other non-entrepreneurial purposes. If the User does not comply with the conditions of Section 2.12 of these Terms (including if the Agent has reasonable grounds to believe that the conditions of this Section 2.12 are not met), the Agent reserves the right to unilaterally refuse to perform the relevant Order without liability to the Agent.
2.13. The execution period of the Order is approximately 14-21 working days from the date of confirmation of the Order by the Agent, unless longer approximate terms are specified during Order placement. These Terms do not impose any obligations on the Agent regarding the timing of legal and other factual actions specified in Section 2.8 of these Terms.
The User is notified and agrees that the delivery terms indicated during Order placement are approximate, represent the minimum possible time, and cannot be precisely determined due to objective factors and peculiarities of international logistics.
2.14. Delivery, storage, and disposal times for Goods are established by the carriers’ rules. The User undertakes to independently review these rules. Information about the carrier providing services to the User under the Order is provided by the Agent via the Account or in email messages.
2.15. By placing an Order and paying the Order cost, the User confirms acceptance of the condition regarding the approximate delivery time of Goods under the Agent’s terms. The delivery time may be extended or shortened due to various circumstances beyond the Agent’s control (customs clearance, transport-logistics conditions, sanctions, banking restrictions on transfers and payments, unavailability of Goods with specified characteristics from Sellers, etc.).
2.16. In cases where the Agent requires additional information or documents to perform the Order, the Agent may request such information and documents and set a deadline for their provision by the User. The execution period of the relevant Order is extended by the period of provision of such information and documents by the User.
2.17. Once the Agent receives the Goods from the Seller, the Agent checks the Goods for compliance with the description (brand, model, color) and size specified in the Order, as well as for absence of shortages and visible defects (such as dirt stains, damage to clothing fabric etc.). The Agent does not possess the necessary knowledge or qualifications to assess the quality of Goods or detect hidden or any other non-visible defects; such actions are not part of the Agent’s mandate under the Order and are not its obligation.
2.18. The Order is deemed fully fulfilled after the Goods are delivered by a Russian entity engaged by the Agent according to Section 2.8 of these Terms for organizing delivery of Goods within the territory of Russia via courier delivery to the address or to a pickup point specified by the User in the Order.
2.19. If the User fails to provide all necessary data for customs clearance of Goods or if such data contains errors during Order placement, the Agent reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse the Order at any time before fulfillment or suspend Order execution until the User provides the required data or information/documents. In such cases, the User remains obligated to reimburse the Agent for expenses incurred in performing the Order (including additional storage costs and return shipment to the Seller, if applicable), which the Agent may retain from all funds received from the User. In case of refusal by the Agent to fulfill the Order under this Section 2.19 of these Terms, the Order is deemed canceled at the time of sending the corresponding notification to the User via the Account interface or email address provided during Order placement. Upon cancellation, the Agent must pay (refund) the User within 30 working days the funds received from the User, minus the above-mentioned expenses. No liability measures may apply against the Agent in case of cancellation of the Order under this Section 2.19 of these Terms.
2.20. The User is obligated to accept all Goods delivered under the Order and is not entitled to unreasonably refuse their acceptance.
Refusal to accept the Goods by the Customer and their return is allowed only upon discovery of non-conformity or shortage or damage to the Goods, confirmed by a non-conformity report signed by the pickup point or courier service employee in the presence of the User, along with supporting photo or video materials. The User must carefully inspect the Order for non-conformity or shortage or damage at the time of receipt and exclusively in the presence of the pickup point or courier service employee. Otherwise, the Agent will be unable to reliably determine the existence of non-conformity or damage and their causes. The non-conformity report must be completed at the time of receipt of Goods by the Customer; otherwise, the Agent may refuse to accept such report as evidence. The non-conformity report, together with the claim, must be sent by the User to the Agent’s email within time limits specified in the Refund & Return Policy, with attached supporting photo or video materials.
2.21. If the Agent concludes a transaction with a third party on more favorable terms, the additional benefit belongs to the Agent.
2.22. The User may unreasonably cancel the Order only until the moment the Agent organizes the conclusion of the retail sales contract for the Goods under Section 2.8.1 of the Terms or in cases prescribed by mandatory provisions of applicable law, provided that the User compensates the Agent with any and all expenses incurred by the Agent.]
2.23. The scope of the Agent’s obligations towards the Customer under these Terms and the Order is limited only to those as directly prescribed in the Terms and does not include any Agent’s actions in relation to any defects in the Goods (except for cases prescribed in Section 2.20 of the Terms) or any communication with the Seller after the Goods’ delivery to the Agent by the Seller, including any services related to return of the Goods to the Seller.

The selection of the remedy shall take into account the nature of the issue, feasibility, and proportionality.
