(2) The sale of our products is governed exclusively by the following General Terms and Conditions, even if we have not objected to the consumer’s deviating terms and conditions of purchase in individual cases. Upon acceptance of our products, these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to have been accepted by the consumer without reservation—even in the event of a prior objection by the consumer. Any deviations require our express written consent to be valid. Our Terms and Conditions also apply to all future transactions with the purchaser.
(3) A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor related to their independent professional activity (Section 13 of the German Civil Code (BGB)).

2. Formation of a Contract

(2) The prices listed include the statutory value-added tax and other price components. Any shipping costs are added to this.
(3) Our offers are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to increase our prices reasonably if cost increases occur after the contract is concluded. We will provide evidence of these to the customer upon request. Price and delivery information provided verbally by employees is always non-binding.

The delivery period begins on the day after the payment order is sent to the bank handling the transfer for payments made in advance, and on the day after the contract is concluded for all other payment methods. If the end of the delivery period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday at the delivery location, the period ends on the next business day.

(1) Insofar as this constitutes a commercial sale within the meaning of the German Commercial Code (HGB), the buyer is obligated to inspect the delivered goods immediately for quantity and quality and to raise any complaints without delay (Section 377 HGB). If the purchased goods are defective due to causes for which we are responsible, we are entitled, at our discretion, to repair the goods or provide a replacement. If we are unwilling or unable to repair or replace the goods, or if the repair or replacement fails, the buyer is entitled, at their discretion, to rescind the contract or demand a corresponding reduction in the purchase price (price reduction).
(2) The right to subsequent performance is not granted for minor defects. Unless otherwise specified below, any further claims by the customer—regardless of their legal basis—are excluded
(3) For our standard goods, a warranty period of 24 months applies from the date of handover to the carrier. Warranty claims are handled as a “bring-in” service, whereby the customer ships the goods to us at their own expense. Once the repair or replacement has been completed, the goods will be returned to the customer.
