Sales are approaching: tips to avoid scams

Summer sales also begin on Saturday in Lombardy. According to Confcommercio estimates, each family will spend on average for the purchase of clothing items and shoes on sale just under 230 euros for a total value of 39, about 3.5 billion euros.

The president of Federazione Moda Italia and vice-president of Confcommercio, Renato Borghi, comments: "After a spring-summer season not really exciting from the point of view of the consumption of clothing, shoes, leather goods, accessories and sporting goods , summer sales represent a test bench for multi-brand fashion retail . Balances continue to be attractive to consumers despite a global competitive environment, or a better "digital dictatorship," capable of conditioning everything from the production chain to the way people consume and build relationships "[19659003] Confcommercio remembers some basic rules and rights to keep in mind when shopping: the ability to change the garment after the purchase is usually left to the discretion of the retailer, to unless the product is not damaged or non-compliant, in this case the obligation of the dealer to repair, replace or refund the price paid. The evidence of the clothes is left to the merchant's discretion. For payments, credit cards must be accepted by the merchant.

The clothes on sale must be seasonal or fashionable and likely to suffer considerable depreciation if they are not sold within a certain period of time. However, nothing forbids to sell items belonging to the current season. Price indication: obligation to indicate the normal selling price, the discount and the final price.
