  1. Quotation and conclusion of contract

3.1 The portrayal of the products in the Brunati Como online shop does not portray a legally binding quotation, but a request to order. Errors and omissions reserved. The order confirmation then transmitted by e-mail does not yet lead to a purchase contract. The English language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

3.2 By clicking the [order with liability to payment] button, you make a binding order for the goods listed on the order page. To start with, you receive a confirmation of receipt. The purchase contract comes about when we accept your order by an order confirmation by e-mail within about 5 days after receipt of your order. This order confirmation also contains the link to the shipment tracking.

3.3 The order process via our online shop contains several steps. In the first step, you select the required goods and place them in your shopping basket. You now have the possibility of selecting further goods and, by clicking the “Checkout” button, of receiving an overview of the articles in your shopping basket. From this overview, you go to the next ordering step via the button “Go on to checkout”. Here, you either log in with the customer number which you already have or you open a personal customer account. But you can also shop without a registration. In the next step, you then enter your complete invoice address and, if applicable, a delivery address deviating from it. Then, in the next step, you choose the mode of payment which you would like. In the penultimate step, you finally have the opportunity of checking all the information (e.g. name, address, mode of payment, ordered articles) once again and correcting them if necessary before you send your order to us by clicking on “order with liability for payment”. After this, you receive a confirmation of receipt to start with. Only after receipt of the order confirmation, which contains a link to shipment tracking, does the purchase contract come about.

3.4 Goods are only sold in quantities customary for households. We do not accept any orders from customers who have not yet turned 18.

3.5 The contract is exclusively concluded in the English language.

3.6 Your orders are stored by us after conclusion of the contract. If you lose your documents on your orders, please get in touch with us by e-mail/telephone. We will be pleased to send you a copy of the data for your order.

  1. Right of revocation for consumers

4.1 Consumers have a statutory right of revocation. A consumer is every natural entity concluding a legal transaction for purposes which cannot mainly be ascribed to their commercial of or their freelance professional activity.

Right of revocation

You have the right to revoke this contract within fourteen days without stating the reasons. The period of revocation amounts to fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the forwarder, have/has taken possession of the last goods. In order to exercise your right of revocation, you must inform us (Brunati Como, Columbusstrasse 76, 40549 Duesseldorf, Germany) about your decision to revoke this contract by means of an unambiguous declaration (e.g. by a letter sent by post, e-mail). You can use the enclosed [sample revocation form] for this, although this has not been prescribed.

To comply with the revocation period, sending the notification of exercising of the right of revocation before the expiry of the revocation period suffices.

Consequences of revocation

If you revoke this contract, we must repay you all the payments which we have received from you, excluding the costs of delivery without delay and no later than fourteen days from the day on which the notification of your revocation of this contract has reached us. For this repayment, we use the same mode of payment which you used in the original transaction, unless something to the contrary has expressly been agreed with you. Under no circumstances will you be charged any fees on account of this repayment. We can reject the repayment until we receive the goods back again or until you have rendered proof that you have sent the goods back, whichever point in time is the earlier. You must send or hand the goods back to us without delay and in any case no later than fourteen days from the day on which you have notified us of the revocation of this contract. The period is complied with if you send us the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days. We do not bear the costs of the return of the goods. You only have to bear the costs of all and any loss of value of the goods if this loss of value is to be ascribed to use of them not necessary to examine the condition, properties and mode of function of the goods.

4.2 The right of revocation does not exist for supply of goods produced according to the customer’s specification (e.g. bespoke orders)

  1. Prices and costs of dispatch

5.1 Prices and costs of dispatch are based on the delivery address or country of delivery stated by you in the ordering process, After input of the delivery address, the prices and costs of dispatch which apply are dispatched in the shopping trolley and in the order overview. More information can be found under our Terms of Delivery section.

  1. Redeeming promotional vouchers

6.2 We do not accept any liability in the event that a voucher is lost, stolen or damaged (e.g. illegible voucher number) or if it is misused or redeemed by an unauthorised third party and we will not provide any replacements. 

6.3 Promotional vouchers can only be redeemed by consumers. Individual products may be excluded from the voucher campaign if a corresponding restriction is indicated in the information shown on the promotional voucher.

6.8 The credit balance on a promotional voucher cannot be paid out in cash and does not bear interest. 

6.9 Promotional vouchers will not be replaced if the customer returns any goods paid for in full or in part with the promotional voucher under their statutory right of withdrawal.

6.10 Promotional vouchers are transferable. The seller can provide its services with discharging effect to the voucher holder who redeems the promotional voucher in the seller’s online shop. This shall not apply if the seller is aware, or unaware due to gross negligence, that the respective voucher holder is ineligible, legally incompetent or does not have the necessary right of representation.

  1. Warranty

The customer has a claim to warranty for defects in the purchased commodities according to the statutory directives of §§ 437 et seqq., German Civil Code. In particular, the customer can demand subsequent performance or new delivery or remedying of the defects. We shall however be entitled to refer the customer to new delivery if remedying of the defects would be connected with disproportionate efforts. The warranty period for the consumer amounts to two years after supply of the goods. The customer should make claims to warranty with a statement of the order number, of his name and his address and with a brief description of the defect. If requested, the customer sends us the defective goods for examination at our expense and our risk to the following address:

  1. Payment

8.1 Payment can be done by credit card, PayPal (www.paypal.com), Sofortüberweisung.de, Klarna or advance payment. During the ordering process, we carry out an automatic examination of the customer’s creditworthiness by means of an inquiry to a credit reference agency. Depending on the outcome of this examination, which will take about one to two seconds, we reserve the right to rule out individual forms of payment.

Credit card

In payment by credit card, booking is done before the dispatch of the goods. No additional fees are charged for this form of payment.

Advance payment

In this case, we reserve the ordered goods for you for two weeks and dispatch the goods after receipt of the money on our account. Please pay the invoice amount during this time, otherwise your reserved goods will be released again by the system. Under these circumstances, you will be notified by us by e-mail.

Immediate transfer

In an immediate transfer, you make comfortable use of your accustomed online banking data. With the transaction confirmation, we can process your order during the transaction and dispatch the goods immediately. For this, your bank merely has to cooperate with SOFORT GmbH.

PayPal

In your online order, you can pay quickly and securely by PayPal. Simply choose PayPal as the mode of payment during the order process. After dispatch of the order, you are automatically forwarded to PayPal, in order to make your payment there. In payment by PayPal, the booking is done before the dispatch of the goods.

For payment with PayPal, you must open a PayPal account. In the PayPal account, you deposit your bank account or your credit card data once. For each future purchase with PayPal, you only need your PayPal user data and your password.

You can find further information on PayPal here.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer the direct debit and cash on delivery forms of payment at the moment. 

Purchase by instalments is not possible. If you fall into arrears with payment, the regulations of § 288 German Civil Code apply.

8.2 A right to offset only accrues to you if your counterclaims are judicially legally effective or undisputed or have been acknowledged by us in writing.

8.3 If you have settled your order by bank transfer, please state your bank account here. Otherwise, a reimbursement will be to your credit card or PayPal account.
