Original Turkish text

MADDE 225 · 5. Satıcının ağır kusurunun sonuçları

Ağır kusurlu olan satıcı, satılandaki ayıbın kendisine süresinde bildirilmemiş olduğunu ileri sürerek sorumluluktan kısmen de olsa kurtulamaz.

Satıcılığı meslek edinmiş kişilerin bilmesi gereken ayıplar bakımından da aynı hüküm geçerlidir.
