ZOO en ABSTRACT: The seller's liability for material defects in goods is an important institute in contract law. We witness the daily execution of legal transactions. Although the sale contract of sale is a named contract, it remains in the process of development, especially with the increasing prevalence of online sales. Due to frequent disputes between sellers and buyers, the questions of defining the seller's liability - in what scope, in what manner, and within what deadlines - are of exceptional importance for legal practice, as well as for every individual. Therefore, the main subject of this paper is a detailed legal analysis of the seller's liability for material defects in goods based on Article 479 of the Law on Obligations, 1978. The liabilities of the seller arising from the contractual relationship regarding defects in goods are examined critically, with a comparative analysis of this institute and solutions in other legal systems, particularly in countries of the region, i.e. neighboring countries. APSTRAKT: Odgovornost prodavca za materijalne nedostatke stvari predstavlja važan institut za ugovorno pravo. Svedoci smo svakodnevne realizacije pravnih poslova. Iako je ugovor o prodaji imenovan ugovor, on je i dalje u fazi uobličavanja, naročito kada su u pitanju sve zastupljenije onlajn prodaje. Usled čestih sporova između prodavaca i kupaca, pitanja definisanja odgovornosti prodavca - u kom obimu, na koji način i u kojim rokovima - su od izuzetnog značaja za pravnu praksu, ali i za svakog pojedinca. Stoga je u radu osnovni predmet istraživanja zasnovan na detaljnoj zakonskoj analizi odgovornosti prodavca za materijalne nedostatke stvari na osnovu člana 479. Zakona o obligacionim odnosima iz 1978 godine. Razmatrane su odgovornosti prodavca iz ugovornog odnosa u pogledu nedostataka stvari sa kritičkim aspektom i uporednom analizom predmetnog instituta i rešenja u drugim pravnim sistemima, odnosno državama u regionu.
