After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering your personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, all order data is finally displayed again on the order overview page.

§ 4 Right of retention, retention of title

§ 5 Warranty

(1) The statutory rights to liability for defects exist

(2) In the case of used goods, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods, in deviation from the legal regulation. The shortening of the period shall not apply:

- for culpably caused damages attributable to us from injury to life, body or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item.

(3) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to notify us and the forwarding agent of any complaints as soon as possible. If you fail to do so, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.

(4) If you are an entrepreneur, the above warranty regulations shall apply in deviation from the above:

a) Only our own specifications and the manufacturer's product description are deemed to be agreed as the quality of the item, but not other advertising, public promotions and statements by the manufacturer.

b) In the event of defects, we shall provide warranty at our discretion either by rectification of the defect or by subsequent delivery. If the rectification of the defect fails, you may, at your option, demand a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. After a second unsuccessful attempt, the rectification of the defect shall be deemed to have failed, unless something else results from the type of item or defect or other circumstances. In the event of rectification of defects, we do not have to bear the increased costs incurred by the transfer of the goods to a place other than the place of performance, unless the transfer corresponds to the intended use of the goods.

c) The warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. The shortening of this period shall not apply:

- culpably caused damages attributable to us arising from injury to life, body or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item;
- in the case of items which have been used for a building in accordance with their usual use and have caused its defectiveness;
- in the case of statutory rights of recourse which you have against us in connection with rights of defect.

§ 6 Choice of law

(2) The provisions of the UN Sales Convention shall expressly not apply.

§ 7 Protection of minors

(1) When selling goods that are subject to the regulations of the German Protection of Young Persons Act, we only enter into contractual relationships with customers who have reached the minimum age prescribed by law.
Existing age restrictions are referred to in the respective article description.

You are obliged to ensure that only you yourself or those persons authorised by you to receive the delivery who have reached the legally prescribed minimum age take delivery of the goods.

(3) Insofar as we are obliged to carry out an age check on the basis of the statutory provisions, we shall instruct the logistics service provider commissioned with the delivery to hand over the delivery only to persons who have reached the legally prescribed minimum age and, in case of doubt, to have the identity card of the person receiving the goods presented to them for an age check.

(4) Insofar as we indicate in the respective article description that you must be 18 years of age or older to purchase the goods, the above paragraphs 1-3 shall apply with the proviso that you must be of legal age instead of the minimum age prescribed by law.
