4.1. The product will be delivered to the delivery address specified by the Buyer in the “Delivery” section on the billing screen.
4.2. Delivery costs are borne by the Buyer unless otherwise specified by the Seller. If the Seller declares on its website or mobile application that it will cover the delivery fee for purchases above a certain amount, then the delivery cost is borne by the Seller. Additionally, the Seller reserves the right to run campaigns regarding delivery fees, change campaign conditions, and/or terminate campaigns. In cases where the delivery fee is not paid by the Buyer for any reason, the Seller has the right to deduct the delivery fee from the total sales amount if the order subject to the campaign is canceled.
4.3. Delivery is made as soon as possible after the stock is available and the payment for the goods is transferred to the Seller's account. The Seller will deliver the goods/services to the cargo within an estimated 2 (Two) business days from the order date, except in the cases specified below. However, if there are Products to be procured from stores or external warehouses within the same order, it is planned to deliver all the products in the order to the cargo within 14 (fourteen) days. Furthermore, if required by the Seller's workflow, the Seller reserves the right to extend the delivery period, not exceeding thirty days from the moment the order reaches the Seller. If, for any reason, the payment for the goods/services is not made or is canceled in the bank records, the Seller is deemed to be released from the obligation to deliver the goods/services.
4.4. The Seller accepts no responsibility if the Buyer is not present at the delivery address specified above, does not accept the Product, or provides an incorrect address; in this case, the Seller is considered to have fulfilled its obligation completely and accurately. Therefore, any damages arising from the late receipt of the Product by the Buyer, as well as any costs incurred due to the Product waiting because of the Buyer's fault and/or the Product being returned because it could not be delivered, are also borne by the Buyer.
4.5. The Seller sends and delivers the products through the contracted cargo company for its shipments. If the cargo company does not have a branch at the Buyer's location, the Buyer must collect the Product from a nearby branch of the cargo company as notified by the Seller.

If, for any reason after the delivery of the Product, the Bank/financial institution of the credit card used for the transaction requests a refund of the amount paid, the Product must be returned to the Seller by the Consumer within 7 days at the latest. If the Product price is not paid due to an unjust instruction or objection by the Consumer to the bank or due to any fault or negligence of the Consumer, the shipping costs will be borne by the Consumer. All other contractual and legal rights of the Seller, including pursuing the claim for the Product price without accepting the return, are reserved in any case.
4.8. Delivery of the Product to the Consumer within the legal maximum period of 30 (thirty) days in accordance with the relevant legislation is considered timely delivery.

In this case, the Consumer may cancel the order, order a similar product, or wait until the extraordinary situation ends.

5.2. After delivery, the obligation to carefully protect the goods/services belongs to the Buyer.

In this case, the Consumer may choose to cancel the order, replace the product subject to the Agreement with its equivalent if available, and/or defer the delivery period until the obstructive condition is eliminated.
