3. General information on offers and orders
- The presentation of the products in the shop, on websites and in digitally printed brochures or catalogs or comparable product presentations by the seller does not constitute a legally binding offer, but rather an invitation to place an order and thus the customer's offer.
- Customers are responsible for ensuring that the information they provide is accurate and that any changes are communicated to Seller if necessary for Seller's performance of the contract. In particular, customers must ensure that the e-mail and delivery addresses provided are correct and that any prevention of receipt for which the customer is responsible is taken into account accordingly (e.g. by checking the spam folder of the e-mail software used).
- Customers are asked to carefully read and observe the instructions during the ordering process and, if necessary, to use the existing support functions of their software and hardware (e.g. enlargement or read-aloud functions). Required information is marked by the seller as such for the customer to be appropriately recognizable (e.g. by optical highlighting and/or asterisks). Until the order is sent, customers can change and view the product selection and their entries at any time and go back in the ordering process or cancel the ordering process altogether. To do this, customers can use the usual functions of their software and/or end device that are available to them (e.g. the forward and back buttons of the browser or keyboard, mouse and gesture functions on mobile devices). Furthermore, undesired entries can be corrected by canceling the ordering process.
4. Ordering process and conclusion of contract
- The customer can choose from the products offered to the customer in the seller's range and collect these in a so-called shopping cart. In the selection within the shopping cart, the product selection can be changed, eg deleted. Otherwise, the customer can initiate the completion of the ordering process.
- By clicking on the button that concludes the ordering process, the customer submits a binding offer to the seller to purchase the products in the shopping cart.
- The seller can accept the customer's offer within the acceptance period. The acceptance period is five days. The acceptance period begins with the completion of the order process by the customer (in the shop or, if used and named, on the platform used or by means of other communication channels) and ends with the end of your last day. The seller can accept the customer's offer by explicitly accepting the contract, also by e-mail. The acceptance can also take place through the dispatch of the goods and their receipt by the customer within the acceptance period, as well as through a payment request addressed to the customer by the seller and at the latest through the completion of the payment transaction. In the case of several acceptance processes, the earliest acceptance time is decisive. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the acceptance period, no contract is formed and the customer is no longer bound to his offer.
- A contract between the customer and the seller can also be concluded by e-mail. The customer can send a binding offer to the seller by e-mail or, if the seller has sent a binding offer, accept this by e-mail.
- A contract between the customer and the seller can also be concluded by means of information in a contact form. The customer can submit a binding offer to the seller via the contact form or, if the seller submits a binding offer, accept this via the contact form.
5. Ordering process and contract conclusion on the Amazon platform
- The terms of this section apply to orders placed through the Amazon platform. The sales contract is concluded with the seller and not with Amazon.
- The customer can choose from the products offered to the customer in the seller's range and collect these in a so-called shopping cart. In the selection within the shopping cart, the product selection can be changed, eg deleted. Otherwise, the customer can initiate the completion of the ordering process.
- In addition to the ordering process via Amazon's "shopping cart" system, the customer can complete the ordering process directly by pressing the "1-Click" or "Buy Now" button from Amazon. In this case, an order is automatically created and sent to the delivery address stored by the customer at Amazon. The order can then be changed or canceled in the overview of orders in the "My Account" area. The purchase price is paid using the payment method stored by the customer at Amazon for the "1-Click" or "Buy Now" method. The customer will be informed about the delivery and payment options in a separate notice and can also change the delivery and payment details in the "My Account" area. The use of the "1-Click" or "Buy Now" method may also require activation by the customer in their Amazon account.
- The seller can accept the customer's offer within the acceptance period. The acceptance period is five days. The acceptance period begins with the conclusion of the order process by the customer and ends with the end of their last day. The seller can accept the customer's offer through an explicit acceptance of the contract by the seller or by Amazon, also by e-mail. The acceptance can also take place through the dispatch of the goods and their receipt by the customer within the acceptance period, as well as through a payment request addressed to the customer by the seller or by Amazon and at the latest by the completion of the payment process.

6. Ordering process and conclusion of contract on the eBay platform

- By publishing an offer in auction format or as a purchase at a fixed price, the seller makes a binding offer to conclude a contract in accordance with the information and conditions specified for the product. By placing a bid, the eBay user accepts the offer under the condition precedent of being the highest bidder at the end of the period specified by the seller. If the eBay user's bid is outbid, his offer expires. The seller can set a minimum price that must be reached in order for the contract to come about. By pressing a buy it now button provided as part of the offer, the eBay user can buy the goods immediately. In the case of auction formats, immediate purchase is only possible as long as no bid has been placed on the offer or the minimum price has not been reached. For articles with the option "immediate payment", the conclusion of the contract only comes about with the conclusion of the subsequent payment process. It is possible to purchase several items at a fixed price if they are placed in the shopping cart using the shopping cart function and the payment process is then completed.
- If a price proposal is enabled, the eBay user's price proposal represents a purchase offer that the seller can accept or reject. The seller can also submit a counter-offer, which the eBay user can either accept or respond to with a counter-offer. If an offer is accepted by the eBay user or the seller, the purchase contract is concluded. Price proposals are valid until the end of the offer and at the latest for 48 hours. Immediate payment is not required when using the Best Offer option on a listing unless the eBay user has been prompted to confirm their payment method when entering their Best Offer.
- If the seller's offers contain a "Click & Collect" notice, buyers can pick up the purchased products at the seller's selected branch. Payment is possible with PayPal, direct debit or credit card. The purchase contract is already concluded on the eBay platform as soon as the product has been purchased and paid for. Seller may make collection conditional upon proof of Buyer's identity and, if authorized, the authorized person and a proper power of attorney signed by Buyer, stating the date and name of Buyer.
- Customers who are subscribed to the eBay Plus option have the option of receiving a Hermes return label from eBay for return purposes. To do this, customers must meet the following requirements and conditions: https://www.ebay.de/help/buying/returns-refunds/rckgabe-eines-artikels-gegen-eine-refunds?id=4775https://www.ebay. en/help/buying/returns-refunds/returning-an-item-for-a-refund?id=4775.

In this case, however, the seller is only liable for the foreseeable, contract-typical and expected damage. The seller is not liable for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those mentioned above. The above limitations of liability do not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health, for a defect after the assumption of a guarantee for the quality of the product and for fraudulently concealed defects. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected. Insofar as the seller's liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of employees, representatives and vicarious agents. Otherwise, claims for damages by the customer are excluded. The above liability regulations also apply to claims for damages by the customer within the framework of the seller's statutory warranty.
- The limitations of warranty and liability obligations and shortening of the relevant periods do not apply to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by customers, goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness, as well as for existing updating obligations in the case of contracts for digital products .
