Med dette spørgsmål ønsker den forelæggende ret nærmere bestemt oplyst, om direktivets artikel 3 skal fortolkes således, at den er til hinder for national lovgivning, hvorefter sælgeren, såfremt han har solgt en mangelfuld forbrugsvare, kan kræve erstatning fra forbrugeren for brugen af den mangelfulde vare, indtil denne erstattes med en ny vare.
By its question, the national court essentially asks whether Article 3 of the Directive is to be interpreted as precluding national legislation under which a seller who has sold consumer goods which are not in conformity may require the consumer to pay compensation for the use of those defective goods until their replacement with new goods.
