The form of this contract varies depending on the circumstances under which it consists. In the case when the Buyer joins the conditions of formulas or other standard forms proposed by the Seller, it should be recognized that the Agreement is in writing. In addition, it should be noted that such a contract acquires the features of the attachment agreement (in Art. 493 of the Civil Code, a direct reference is made to Art. 428 GK).

If the law or contract of retail sales has not established special rules regarding the form, the retail sales contract is considered to be concluded in the appropriate form from the moment the seller is issued by the buyer of a cash or commodity check or other document confirming the payment of goods (Art. 493 of the Civil Code). Consequently, as a general rule, such an agreement is orally. The most common way of retail trade - through the counter - is the oral form of this contract, since this is a typical deal in which the moment of its commitment and the moment of execution coincide (Art. 159 of the Civil Code). If the moment of the conclusion and execution of the retail sales contract does not coincide, it should be considered that a cash register or a commodity check or another document confirming the payment of goods and issued by the seller to the buyer, represent the written form of the contract (Article 161 of the Civil Code). But the lack of the buyer of these documents does not deprive it with the possibility of referring to testimony to confirm the conclusion of the contract and its conditions when entering into this agreement both in verbal and in writing (paragraph 1 of paragraph 5 of Article 18 of the Law on Consumer Rights Protection) .

Prerequisite obligations of the seller According to Art. 495 GK consists in granting the buyer of information about the product. The seller must provide the buyer with the necessary and reliable information about the product proposed for sale that meets the established law, other legal acts and usually imposed in retail trade requirements and methods for providing such information. The buyer has the right before the conclusion of the retail sales contract to inspect the goods, to require the presentation of the properties or demonstration of the use of the goods in its presence, if it is not excluded due to the nature of the goods and does not contradict the rules adopted in retail. In cases where the customer is a consumer, the action of Art is also applied to it. 8-12 Consumer Rights Protection Act.

From the point of view of the content, i.e. essential conditions, the buyer in accordance with paragraph 1 of Art. 500 GK is obliged to pay the goods at a price announced by the Seller at the time of the conclusion of a retail sales contract, unless otherwise provided by law, other legal acts or does not follow the obligations. Consequently, along with the subject of a significant condition of the contract of retail sale is the price.

Protection of consumer protection

Given the noted features of the contract of retail sale, the law establishes a number of additional protection of buyers' rights.

Protection of the rights of buyers, established by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation

In accordance with Article 502 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federationthe boiler has the right for 14 days from the moment of the transfer of a non-food product for 14 days, if a longer period is not declared by the seller, exchange purchased goods at the place of purchase and other places declared by the seller, to similar goods of other sizes, forms, dimensions, shapes, colors or configuration, By producing in the case of the difference in the price the necessary recalculation with the seller.

In the absence of goods required to exchange the seller, the buyer has the right to return the purchased goods to the seller and get the amount paid for him.

The requirement of the buyer about the exchange or about the return of goods is subject to satisfaction, if the goods were not used, its consumer properties were preserved and there are evidence of its acquisition from this seller.

The buyer has the right to exchange goods purchased to them ( art. 502.Civil Code ; art. 25 of the Law on Consumer Protection).

The implementation of this right is related to the need to comply with a number of conditions and requirements for both the goods exchanged and to the buyer (consumer). So, the goods should be: a) non-food (for food goods the right to exchange does not apply); b) high-quality (art. 503 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). The reason for the exchange should be various causes that are not related to product quality (size, shape, dimensions, style, color, equipment), not satisfying the buyer. The goods must save its consumer properties and should not be included in the list of goods not subject to exchange (return).

In turn, the buyer can implement this right: at the place of purchase of goods; On a 14-day term, from the moment of its transfer (or in other places and (or), at a longer period declared by the Seller), if he, firstly, did not use (did not use) the goods and, secondly, there is evidence of it Acquisition from this seller.

Article 25 of the Federal Law "On Consumer Protection" specifies the rules for returning the goods, fixing the following.

The exchange of non-food goods of proper quality is carried out if the specified product was not used, its freight look, consumer properties, seals, factory labels, and there is also a commodity check or cash receipt or other confirming the document of the specified product. At the same time, the absence of a consumer of a commodity or cash receipt or other confirming the payment of the product of the document does not deprive it with the opportunity to refer to testimony (paragraph 1 of Art. 25 of the Federal Law "On Consumer Rights Protection").

If the similar product is not available on the day of consumer's appeal to the seller, the consumer has the right to refuse to execute the contract of sale and demand the return of the amount paid for the specified goods. The consumer's demand for the return of the money paid paid for the specified goods is subject to satisfaction within three days from the date of return of the specified product (paragraph 2 of Art. 25 of the Federal Law "On Consumer Rights Protection").



However, not all goods of proper quality are subject to exchange according to the rules of Art. 502 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. The Government of the Russian Federation approved a list of goods not subject to exchange. According to the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of January 19, 1998 No. 55 as amended. dated October 4, 2012 "On approval of the rules for the sale of individual types of goods, a list of long-term goods, which does not apply to the buyer's requirement of gratuitous provision for the repair or replacement of similar goods, and the list of non-food goods not payable or exchanged On similar goods of other sizes, forms, dimensions, shapes, colors or configurations are not subject to exchange according to the rules of Art. 502 Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the following products: Sanitation and hygiene objects, rubber, textiles and other materials, medical instruments, instruments and equipment, oral hygiene products, lenses Points, Child care products, drugs; Personal Hygiene Items (Toothbrushes, Combs, Hairpins, Hair Curves, Wigs, Shignon and Other Similar Products; Perfume Cosmetic Products; Textile Products (Cotton, Linen, Silk, Woolen and Synthetic Fabrics, Products from nonwovens Tissue type - Ribbons , braid, lace and others); cable products (wires, cords, cables); construction and finishing materials (linoleum, film, carpet and other) and other goods released by a metro; sewing and knitwear (sewing and knitwear products, Circulatory products, etc.), etc.

The buyer has the right to protect his rights in the event of an acquisition goods of improper quality.

In the case of the sale of goods inadequate quality, the buyer has the right to demand:

- replacement of poor quality goods in good quality goods;

- proportionate to reducing the purchase price;

- immediate gratuitous elimination of the flaws of the goods;

- Reimbursement of expenditures to eliminate the shortcomings of goods.

Along with the above, the law enshrines the general rule, according to which, instead of preventing the requirements listed above, the buyer has the right to refuse to fulfill the contract of retail sale and demand the return of the amount paid for the goods (paragraph 4 of Art. 503 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).

With regard to a technically complex product, the buyer has the right to demand its replacement or refuse to fulfill the contract of retail sale and demand the return of the amount paid for the goods in the event of a significant violation of its requirements.

According to paragraph 6 of Art. 503 of the Civil Code These rules, if the laws of the protection of consumer rights are not established otherwise.

In turn, the Consumer Protection Act complements the rules of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Consumer rights when discovered in the product of the shortcomings are fixed in Art. 18 of the Law on the Protection of Consumer Rights. Let us dwell on them.

In accordance with paragraph 1 of Art. 18 of the Law on Consumer Protection Consumer In the event of detection in the product of shortcomings, the consumer (retail buyer) has the right to be the right:

require replacement for the goods of the same brand (the same models and (or) article);

require a commensurate decrease in the purchase price;

require immediate gratuitous elimination of the shortcomings of a product or reimbursement of consumer correction costs or a third party;

refuse to execute the contract of sale and demand the return of the amount paid for the goods.

At the request of the seller and at his expense, the consumer must return the goods with disadvantages. At the same time, the consumer has the right to demand also full compensation for damages caused to him due to the sale of goods inadequate quality. Losses are reimbursed within the deadlines established by the above law to meet the relevant requirements of the consumer.

A number of special rules are set to technically complex goods.

With regard to a technically complex product, the consumer in case of detection in it, the deficiencies have the right to refuse to execute the contract of sale and demand the return of the amount paid for such a product or to make the requirement to replace it with the goods of the same brand (model, article) or the same product. Marks (models, articles) with appropriate recalculation of the purchase price within fifteen days from the date of transfer to the consumer of such goods. After this period, the specified requirements are subject to satisfaction in one of the following cases:

detection of a significant drawback of goods;

violation of the deadlines for the deficiencies of goods established by this Law;

the impossibility of using the product during each year of the warranty period in the aggregate more than thirty days due to the repeated elimination of its various flaws.

The list of technically complex goods was approved by the Government of the Russian Federation of November 10, 2011 No. 924. Treatment of technically complex products: Cars passenger, motorcycles, scooters and vehicles with an internal combustion engine (with an electric motor) designed to move on public roads; tractors, motoblocks, motor-cultivators, machinery and equipment for agriculture with an internal combustion engine (with an electric motor); system units, stationary and portable computers, including laptops, and personal electronic computing machines; televisions, projectors with digital control unit; Digital photo and video cameras, lenses for them and optical photo and film equipment with a digital control unit; Refrigerators, freezers, washing and dishwashers, coffee machines, electrical and combined plates, electrical and combined winds, air conditioners, electric water heaters with an electric motor and (or) microprocessor automation, etc.

It should be paid to the fact that the Consumer Protection Act directly enshrines the rule that the absence of a cash register of a cash or commercial check or other document certifying the fact and the conditions for the purchase of goods is not a basis for refusing to satisfy its requirements (clause 5 Art. 18 FZ "On the protection of consumer rights").
