General Terms and Conditions

Introduction

Thank you for your interest in our product. These terms and conditions apply to all purchases in our store.

1. Prices

The applicable price is indicated on the price tag. You will find this on or near the product or on our website. If the indicated price is incorrect, BonDiGro may decide to charge you the correct price, especially if the price is disproportionately low and is not part of a promotion.

Our prices exclude any possible shipping and/or delivery costs. Separate agreements will be made regarding these costs.

3. Promotions and Offers

4. Lowest Price Guarantee on “Inventum” and “Tomado” Products

At BonDiGro, you can purchase “Inventum” and “Tomado” products at a price 5% lower than that of our competitors on Bonaire. We commit to closely monitoring our competitors to ensure we offer the best prices. If these products are offered at a lower price by our competitor, we will adjust our prices accordingly.

5. Pick-up / Delivery (Falki Express) Products

Pick-up of products ordered via Falki Express

If a product has been ordered via Falki Express and we notify you that it is ready for pick-up, you must collect it within one week. If not, we will charge a minimum fee of US$50 per cubic meter of storage starting from the second week.

Delivery of large volume products

For the delivery of large volume products, a separate agreement must be made. The following conditions apply:

  • Once the goods are delivered to us, parties must make a written agreement within one week stating the delivery address and preferred delivery time.
  • A storage fee of US$50 will be charged if the goods remain in our warehouse for more than one week.
  • Deliveries will not be made off-road.

  • Goods will only be released once the delivery costs are paid.
  • We will deliver products to the first ground-floor door, after which an inspection will take place, and you must sign for receipt. From that point, the goods are no longer under our warranty, and you are responsible for moving them further at your own risk.

6. Returns / Damage

A product can be returned to our customer service desk. Our staff will check the product, and if it meets our return conditions, we will refund you the purchase amount. The return period is 1 week after purchase with the receipt. The product should be returned, as much as possible, in its original packaging.

Products will not be accepted for return unless there is damage to the product. The following items cannot be returned:

  • Falki Express products that have already been inspected
  • “Sealed” products that are not suitable for return due to health protection reasons, such as toothbrushes, razors, etc.

  • Used electronics.

If a product does not fully meet our return conditions, we will see what we can do for you.

  • Warranty period upon presentation of the BonDiGro receipt.
  • For new white goods (220 volts), a 1-year warranty applies.
