2.1.2. By submitting your order in our online shop (by pressing a button such as “Order Now” or “Place Order”), you submit a binding request to conclude a contract with us for the purchase of the goods contained in the shopping cart.

We are entitled to refuse the acceptance of the order.

3. Delivery and product availability

3.1. The delivery period shall be extended appropriately if the delivery is impaired by force majeure. Force majeure shall be deemed equivalent to other obstacles which affect the delivery and for which we are not responsible (e.g. strike, order by authorities or courts, operational damage caused by fire or water). Irrespective of this, we and you shall be entitled to withdraw from the orders affected by this if the force majeure or other similar obstacles persist for more than 4 weeks after the agreed delivery date.

4.2. If delivery is made outside the EU, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases (e.g. costs for money transfer, customs duties, taxes or fees). We do not accept liability for such costs. The handling and payment of these amounts is your exclusive responsibility (unless expressly agreed otherwise).

4.3. When buying through our online shops, we offer various payment methods, including prepayment, Paypal or credit card.

In this case, the order is then void for both parties and without further consequences.

4.3.2. Unless otherwise specified, in the case of purchase on account, the purchase price shall be due on the day on which we or a third party commissioned by us (e.g. the parcel service) have handed over the goods to you or a third party engaged by you.
