1. Scope

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of RSR-Handel GbR (hereinafter "Seller") apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods concluded between a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") and the Seller regarding the goods presented by the Seller in its online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby excluded, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 A consumer within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor independent professional. An entrepreneur within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is a natural or legal person, or a partnership with legal capacity, who, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the Seller's online shop do not constitute binding offers on the part of the Seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the Customer.

2.2 The customer can submit an offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and completing the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer for the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that completes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit an offer to the seller by telephone, email, or via the online contact form.

2.3 The Seller may accept the Customer’s offer within five days,

- by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive, or

- by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or

- by requesting payment from the customer after placing his order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends on the expiry of the fifth day following the dispatch of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer, with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by their declaration of intent.

2.4 If the payment method "PayPal Express" is selected, payment processing will be carried out via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à rl et Cie, SCA, 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer selects "PayPal Express" as the payment method during the online ordering process, they also issue a payment order to PayPal by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. In this case, the seller hereby declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer initiates the payment process by clicking the button that concludes the order process.

2.5 If the payment method "Amazon Payments" is selected, payment processing will be carried out via the payment service provider Amazon Payments Europe sca, 38 avenue John F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "Amazon"), subject to the Amazon Payments Europe User Agreement, available at https://payments.amazon.de/help/201751590. If the customer selects "Amazon Payments" as the payment method during the online ordering process, they simultaneously issue a payment order to Amazon by clicking the button that completes the ordering process. In this case, the seller hereby declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer initiates the payment process by clicking the button that completes the ordering process.

2.6 When submitting an offer via the Seller's online order form, the contract text will be saved by the Seller after the contract has been concluded and sent to the Customer in text form (e.g., email, fax, or letter) after the order has been sent. The Seller will not make the contract text available beyond this time. If the Customer has set up a user account in the Seller's online shop before submitting their order, the order data will be archived on the Seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the Customer via their password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.7 Before submitting a binding order via the Seller's online order form, the Customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better detection of input errors can be the browser's zoom function, which enlarges the display on the screen. During the electronic ordering process, the Customer can correct their entries using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until they click the button that completes the order process.

2.8 Only the German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.9 Order processing and contact are generally carried out via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address provided for order processing is correct, so that emails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using spam filters, the customer must ensure that all emails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3.1 Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller’s cancellation policy.

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices including statutory sales tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be stated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller’s online shop.

4.3 If advance payment by bank transfer has been agreed, payment is due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless the parties have agreed on a later due date.

4.4 When paying using a payment method offered by PayPal, payment processing is carried out via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à rl et Cie, SCA, 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full.

4.5 If you select the purchase on account payment method, the purchase price is due after the goods have been delivered and invoiced. In this case, the purchase price must be paid without deduction within 14 (fourteen) days of receipt of the invoice, unless otherwise agreed. The seller reserves the right to only offer the purchase on account payment method up to a certain order volume and to reject this payment method if the specified order volume is exceeded. In this case, the seller will inform the customer of any corresponding payment restrictions in the payment information in the online shop. The seller also reserves the right to conduct a credit check if you select the purchase on account payment method and to reject this payment method if the credit check is negative.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal Invoice" is selected, the seller assigns its payment claim to PayPal. Before accepting the seller's assignment declaration, PayPal will conduct a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the "PayPal Invoice" payment method to the customer if the check result is negative. If the "PayPal Invoice" payment method is approved by PayPal, the customer must pay the invoice amount to PayPal within 30 days of receiving the goods, unless PayPal specifies a different payment deadline. In this case, the customer can only make payments to PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the event of an assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g., regarding the goods, delivery times, shipping, returns, complaints, cancellation notices and returns, or credit notes. In addition, the General Terms and Conditions for the use of PayPal's invoice purchase apply; these can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/pui-terms.

5.1 Goods will be delivered to the delivery address provided by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address provided during the seller's order processing is decisive for the transaction. Exception: If PayPal is selected as the payment method, the delivery address provided by the customer to PayPal at the time of payment is decisive.

5.2 For goods delivered by freight forwarding, delivery shall be made "free curbside", i.e. up to the public curb closest to the delivery address, unless otherwise stated in the shipping information in the Seller's online shop and unless otherwise agreed.

5.3 If delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply to the shipping costs if the customer effectively exercises their right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises their right of withdrawal, the provisions in the seller's cancellation policy apply to the return shipping costs.

5.4 In the case of self-collection, the Seller will first notify the Customer by email that the ordered goods are ready for collection. Upon receipt of this email, the Customer may collect the goods from the Seller's premises after consultation with the Seller. In this case, no shipping costs will be charged.

If the seller makes advance payments, he retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

7.1 If the purchased item is defective, the statutory liability for defects shall apply.

7.2 The customer is requested to report any goods delivered with obvious transport damage to the delivery agent and to notify the seller of this. Failure by the customer to do so will have no effect on their statutory or contractual claims for defects.

All legal relationships between the parties shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the laws governing the international sale of movable goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that the protection granted is not withdrawn by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his or her habitual residence.

9.1 The EU Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution on the Internet at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

This platform serves as a contact point for the out-of-court settlement of disputes arising from online sales or service contracts involving a consumer.

9.2 The Seller is not obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, but is generally willing to do so.
