2.1. How do we conclude the purchase contract?

To conclude a contract, you must send a purchase order in compliance with these Terms and Conditions and we must confirm such order. Please note that the presentation of goods on the Web Interface is illustrative and it is not our offer to conclude a contract pursuant to Section 1732 (2) of the Civil Code.

2.2. How can you place a purchase order?

Purchase orders may be placed through the Web Interface (by completing a form) or using another method which we allow according to the information available on the Web Interface. Purchase orders must contain all the information required in the form. Prior to the purchase order being concluded in an order form, you will be provided with the purchase order summary, incl. the final price. The purchase order summary is the last opportunity to change the details you entered. Binding purchase orders are placed by clicking on the “SEND ORDER” button. The details contained in the binding purchase order shall be considered accurate and complete by us. We kindly ask you to inform us about any changes of such details by telephone or email without delay.

2.3. Can you cancel or change a purchase order that has already been sent?

Purchase orders not yet confirmed by us can be cancelled or changed by email. All purchase orders confirmed by us are binding. Any subsequent cancellation or change of the purchase order is subject to our agreement. If you cancel a purchase order for goods regarding which you cannot withdraw from the contract (for more details go to clause 6), we are entitled to the reimbursement of the costs incurred by us with regard to the contract.

2.4. How are you informed about the order confirmation and when is the contract concluded?

We will inform you that we have received the order. Such information is sent automatically and it is not our confirmation of your purchase order. The purchase contract is concluded when you receive the confirmation of your purchase order from us at your email address indicated by you in the purchase order. If no order confirmation takes place, the contract is concluded when you accept ordered goods.

2.5. Can you get a contract in text form?

The documents which constitute the contract will be sent to you by email, or, at your request, in paper format. If the contract is sent by post, we may request payment of the applicable costs from you. The documents which constitute the contract are archived in electronic format. The contract is not accessible to third parties.

4.4. Price rounding

There may be a small difference between the price displayed on the website and the amount shown on the invoice (within two decimal places).

However, you will always see and pay the exact unrounded amount at the checkout.

The methods of shipment, incl. the costs of shipment, are listed on the Web. You can select the method of shipment in the purchase order. The purchase order shall always indicate the final price, which includes the cost of the shipment.

If you have any issues regarding the time of delivery, do not hesitate to contact us and we will resolve the issue with the carrier. We usually dispatch goods that are in stock within 2 business days from the order confirmation, or from the date on which the payment is credited to our bank account. Ordered goods usually arrive within 1 week, or 2-4 business days if express delivery has been selected. Goods that are not in stock are usually delivered within 2 weeks. Delivery times may be longer in the case of special orders or with respect to custom made goods. For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, delivery refers to the moment the goods are delivered to you. Your refusal to accept the goods for any reason shall not be deemed as our failure to comply with the obligation to deliver goods or your withdrawal from the contract.

Check the packaging for tampering before you accept the goods. If you detect
any defects, inform the carrier, and also us, without delay.

5.4. What happens if you do not accept the goods?

If the goods must be delivered repeatedly or in a manner other than agreed for reasons attributable to you, you will be obliged to reimburse the costs of such delivery. If you fail to accept the goods for no reason, we are entitled to the reimbursement of the costs relating to the delivery and storing of the goods, as well as any other costs incurred by us as a result of your failure to accept the goods.
