Terms & Conditions
1.Quotation and acceptance
of orders
Our quotations are always without obligation. Agreement and
arrangement made orally or by telephone with our
representatives become legally valid only if approved in
writing by us. Deviations in the orders placed by the
purchaser from our terms of delivery and payment shall not
be binding for us if we have not expressed our consent in
writing. We shall be permitted expressly and in all cases to
correct eventual errors in offers and invoices at a later
point in time.
2. Delivery
All specifications stipulated by us regarding delivery
periods are only approximations and non-binding.
3. Acceptance of goods
Complaints regarding design, quality, quantity and weight
can be taken into account only if the claimed loss is more
than 5% of the delivered goods. Furthermore, we must be
informed of complaints through written notice within 8 days
after receipt of the shipment. For the complaints
acknowledged by us, either replacement shall be delivered
free of charge OR the paid purchase price refunded at our
discretion; on the other hand, any further claims, in
particular for paid freight wages, expenses and penalty for
delay, shall be rejected.
4. Packaging
If no specifications regarding packaging are made in the
order, we shall choose the standard packaging at our
discretion.
5. Shipment
The goods shall always, regardless of route and
transportation means, be shipped to the place of destination
at the risk of the purchaser. Traffic duties, if not
accruing to us in the case of freight paid FOB and CIF
deliveries, shall be borne by the purchaser unless, due to
statutory regulations, the seller must bear traffic duties
alone. We shall assume obligation neither for punctual
transport nor for full utilization of the capacity of the
means of transport.
6. Payment
If upon completion of a transaction no other conditions of
payment have been stipulated in writing, our invoices shall
be payable net after 30 days.
7. Reservation of title
The delivered goods shall remain our property until full
repayment of all obligations arising from the business
connection and from other and future transactions between
the purchaser and us. The purchaser shall oblige himself to
handle the goods properly and with care for the duration of
the reservation of the title by seller. The purchaser shall,
within the scope of his orderly and usual business
activities, be entitled to sell and process the goods. The
claims made by the purchaser from the resale of the reserved
goods shall, with all additional rights, at this point in
time be transferred to us until the full repayment of our
claims from physical deliveries to the full amount. The
transferred claims shall serve as our security, but only to
the value of the reserved goods sold in each case. Should
the reserved goods be sold by the purchaser after processing
or unprocessed in conjunction with our goods not belonging
to us, the transfer of the purchase-money claim shall be
valid only to the value of the received goods which, with
the other goods, are the subject of this contract of sale or
part of the object of sale. The purchaser shall be entitled
to resell the reserved goods only in accordance with the
above stipulations regarding transfer of the purchase-money
claim. The purchaser shall be obliged to inform us
immediately in case of seizure of the goods or, in lieu of
the goods, of a purchase-money claim from a third party in
case of resale. We shall, at our opinion, bind ourselves to
release and retransfer the securities transferred to us
according to the above conditions as far as their value
exceeds the claims to be secured by 20%. |
