Statutory
information
for the right of cancellation in distance selling
for consumers:
Right
of cancellation
If
you are ordering for private purposes, as a consumer, you are no longer bound to
your declaration of intend directed towards contract
conclusion, if you have cancelled it in due time
Exercise
of cancellation
The cancellation need not contain any reason and is to be declared to the
entrepreneur in the written form (e.g. letter, fax, email) or by returning the
merchandise within 1 month; the punctual dispatch of the cancellation or the
merchandise suffices for ensuring the time limit.
The notification of cancellation is to be sent to:
Erwin Rastetter
Dörfle 5
77790 Steinach
Fax: +49(0) 7832 976920
E-Mail:
info@emartec.com
Course of the revocation period,
commencement of the time limit
The
course of the revocation period only commences in compliance with various legal
requirements. For electronic orders on the Internet for example, provisions for
the support of recognising input errors and information on this as well as,
among other things, essential information regarding contract conclusion and
contents, contract language and storage of the contract wording must be made
available to the consumer on the part of the entrepreneur. Furthermore the
consumer must also be additionally informed of essential information regarding
the offer and the contract in the written form.
In no case does the course of the revocation period commence until the consumer
has received the notification of the cancellation instructions in the written
form (e.g. letter, fax, email) as separately given, clearly formed instructions;
the time limit for shipments does not commence until the day the addressee has
received the merchandise.
Commencement of the time limit is the first day after
day ends on which the last requirement has been met.
Cancellation
Consequences
Return
In the event of an effective cancellation both parties are obligated to warrant
return of services rendered and if applicable to release profits which were made
(e.g. interest).
Package transportable merchandise is to be returned at our costs and risk.
Non-package
transportable merchandise will be picked up at our costs and risk.
However, you must bear the costs for the return shipment if the delivered
merchandise corresponds to the merchandise ordered and if the price of the
merchandise which is to be returned, does not exceed the amount of 40 Euros or
in the case of higher
priced merchandise, you have not yet rendered the return service or a
contractually stipulated partial payment at the time of cancellation. Otherwise
the return shipment is free of charge for you.You
must fulfil obligations for the reimbursement of payments within 30 days after
dispatching the notice of cancellation.
Obligation
for value replacement and information regarding avoidance
Should
you not be able be to return the rendered service completely or partially or
only in a declined condition, we are, under certain conditions, entitled to
demand value replacement.
A
condition for an obligation for value replacement for a decline of the
merchandise resulting from the intended commencement of use of the merchandise,
is the notification of the instructions regarding a possible obligation for
value replacement and a possibility of avoiding it, in the written form (e.g.
letter, fax, email) at contract conclusion. An obligation for value
replacement does not exist, among other things, if the decline of the
merchandise can be solely attributed to its examination - as it would have been
possible for you in a store.
Furthermore
you can avoid the obligation of value replacement by not using the merchandise
as an owner would and by refraining from anything that affects the market value
of the merchandise.
For
our contracts concluded with consumers at eBay, you are only faced with claims
for value replacement for an intended commencement of use due to the requirement
of the written form, if you have, as an exception, received the instructions
regarding the value replacement in the written form, for Buy It Now offers,
before placing your order; the condition for auctions is that you have received
the instructions in the written form before the end of the auction or rather as
second bidder, before contract conclusion.
Non-existence
of the right of cancellation
Legal exceptions of the right of cancellation apply (§ 312d clause 4 German
Civil Code), in which we reserve the right to refer to the following regulations
in reference to you, should the requirements exist:
A right of cancellation does not exist for distance selling contracts for the
delivery of merchandise which was manufactured according to customer
specifications or which is distinctively custom-designed.
