7. damage in transit

For consumers:
If goods are delivered with obvious transport damage, please complain about such errors to the deliverer as soon as possible and contact us immediately. Failure to make a complaint or contact us has no consequences for your statutory claims and their enforcement, in particular your warranty rights. However, they help us to assert our own claims against the carrier or transport insurance.

For entrepreneurs:
The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration shall pass to you as soon as we have delivered the goods to the forwarder, the carrier or any other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. Among merchants, the duty to examine and give notice of defects regulated in § 377 HGB (German Commercial Code) applies. If you fail to make the notification stipulated there, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, unless the defect was not identifiable during the inspection. This does not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect.

8. warranties and guarantees

Unless expressly agreed otherwise below, statutory liability for defects shall apply. For consumers, the limitation period for warranty claims for used goods is one year from delivery of the goods.
For entrepreneurs, the limitation period for warranty claims is one year from the passing of risk; the statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse according to § 478 BGB remain unaffected.
Only our own information and the manufacturer's product descriptions, which have been included in the contract, shall be deemed to be an agreement with entrepreneurs regarding the quality of the goods; we accept no liability for public statements made by the manufacturer or other advertising statements.
If the delivered item is defective, we shall initially provide a warranty to entrepreneurs at our discretion by remedying the defect (rectification) or by delivering a defect-free item (replacement delivery).
