§ 1 Prices
The prices of our quotes and acceptances of order are subject to confirmation. We charge the prices available at the time of delivery. Freight and packing see page 6.6. valid only within the United States. Unless agreed upon differently all export prices are ex works.
§ 2 Orders
We will confirm the acceptance of orders in writing. Orders are only valid by our written confirmation. Changes, supplementary agreements and amendments of the contract have to be agreed on in written form in order to be valid.
§ 3 Transportation risk and delivery
All deliveries are at the risk of the customer. The risk passes over to the customer from the (outgoing) place of delivery. This is valid even if free delivery is agreed on. If the delivery is delayed by fault of the customer the risk passes over to the customer on the day the merchandise is ready for delivery. Insurance against transport damage will only be arranged for if the customer explicitly demands it and at his expense. Shipping instructions have to be given with the placement of the order, otherwise the merchandise will be shipped at our own discretion for the cheapest freight,
without obligation.
§ 4 Catalogues, drawings and samples
We reserve the right of property and the copy rights of all provided catalogues, digital or print, drawings and samples. These documents may not be used for copying, imitation, or circulation.
§ 5 Delivery and acts of nature
Quoted times of delivery are always without obligation. We always try to complete an order promptly and in time. The time of delivery starts with the day of the sending of the confirmation of order and is deemed to be kept, if the merchandise has left our factory by the end of the delivery period. Acts of nature which happen after conclusion of a contract and complicate our services or make them impossible, entitle us to defer the fulfilment of our obligations for the time of the interference and an adequate start-up time. Acts of nature include especially strikes, lockouts, breakdown of transportation, lack of production material or energy or similar occurrences which we are not accountable for. If acts of nature lead to a final, lasting, irreparable hindrance of performance we are entitled to withdraw from the contract.
