  1. Quand un colis a été expédié dans les temps, mais n’a atteint le point relais que 12 jours après la date annoncée, l’acheteur peut avoir dû s’absenter dans l’intervalle -pour raisons professionnelles, par exemple. Dans ce cas, l’achat “non récupéré” par l’acheteur en raison de son absence lui est-il remboursé?
