Warranties, defect claims, consumer remedy

1. Declarations of warranty must be expressly specified, upon order confirmation or agreed in writing afterwards. Statements about the properties of our goods, their processing and use, about specific measurement accuracy as well as their compliance with Customer requirements shall only become a guarantee of properties, if these have been expressly agreed upon in individual cases. Defect claims are excluded for differences in quality, size, thickness, weight and others, when such differences do not exceed deviations normal for the industry or in raw material, in particular, if they lie within the above tolerances or within the tolerances of product guidelines or norms. The Vendor cannot be not liable for defects that can be traced to improper use of goods or wear and tear. All defect claims are excluded if the Customer or a third party has made repairs or made other changes without our approval. In case of admissible defects claimed in time, we may choose either a remedy or replacement delivery. The Vendor is entitled to an adequate time period for supplying a replacement delivery, in particular for procuring the raw material needed for the replacement goods. If the defect does not affect the usability and is not significant, we are entitled to grant abatement instead of remedy. A prerequisite for further claims from the Customer is that the Vendor is still behind schedule with the remedy due of significant defects and that an adequate extension of time has expired unsuccessfully or two attempts at remedy have failed. Before proceeding to reimburse a faulty order, the Vendor is entitled to provide remedy after the extension has expired, until a clear declaration from the buyer is given, which expressly rejects further performance or if otherwise agreed in writing.

Fixed dates, delivery times, consequences of delay

1. Delivery times are only binding if the Vendor has confirmed them. Therefore, fixed delivery dates should be expressly agreed upon if the work effort required can be determined. In case of a delay, the Vendor is entitled to perform until the buyer expressly requests compensation in lieu of performance. The compensation claim for damages due to delay as well as compensation in lieu of performance are limited to value of the order.

Right of withdrawal

1. If the Customer is the end-consumer, he may withdraw his declaration of agreement in written form (letter or Email), within 14 days, or by returning the goods if it had been conveyed before the deadline expired. The term begins after these instructions have been received but not before the buyer receives the goods (in the case of repeat deliveries of the same goods, before the first partial delivery). In order to maintain the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient to send the withdrawal or the object on time.
2. In the case of a valid withdrawal payments must be reimbursed. If the Customer cannot return the goods received to the Vendor or only in an damaged condition, the Customer must pay compensation for lost value. This does not apply to work that has been delivered, if the damage of the goods can be traced exclusively to their inspection which would have been possible in the Customer's store. Otherwise the Customer can avoid the duty to pay compensation for loss of value due to damage through proper use, by not treating the goods as his property and avoiding affecting anything that may lower its value. Objects that can be sent in a package must be returned at the Vendor's risk. The Customer must pay the cost of dispatching, if the goods delivered correspond to the goods ordered and if the price of the object to be returned does not exceed 10000.00 Rand. Obligations to reimburse payments must be met within 30 days. For the Customer the term begins when he has sent his declaration of withdrawal or the object, for the Vendor when it receives them.

The Customer shall release the Vendor from third party claims in this regard.
