§ 1 General contracts
The existing business contract between Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH, the site operator of "derksen.de" and the customer applies to the business conditions in force at the time of ordering. It's not possible to fulfil customers special requests unless Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH confirm their accordance in a written statement.
§ 2 Orders and contract finalisations
Your order stands as a request to us to fulfil a buyers contract. When you make an order through "derksen.de" we'll send you an e-mail confirming the receipt of your order including any specific particulars. (Order confirmation.) This confirmation isn't an acceptance of your order it's just to confirm that we've received it. A buyers contract only comes into effect when we send you the ordered product and a second e-mail confirming its dispatch. (Dispatch confirmation.) If other products have been ordered but details are not included in the dispatch confirmation then those products are not covered by the buyers contract.
Contract partner is Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH.
No matter where you find them, (web site, catalogue.) all our prices and offers are flexible and open to change.
We accept payment by direct debit, cash on delivery or a cash payment at the firms HQ. Goods which are ordered by direct debit will be dispatched and the production of specified goods will only be started after the payment has been made.
Only written delivery dates and deadlines are valid. Delays caused by acts of God or accidents and circumstances which make it difficult or even impossible for the vendor to meet the deadline, in particular strikes, lock-outs, official orders or a cancellation of delivery by a supplier, even when the events affect Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH suppliers, Derksen Lichttechnik cannot be held responsible for undelivered articles to customers who have have binding agreements and deadlines. You can either agree to allow Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH the appropriate extra time needed to compensate for the duration of the delay and complete their delivery, or because of the unfulfilled agreement partly or wholly opt out of the contract. If you extend the delivery deadline or free Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH from their obligation you can't claim damages other than intentional negligence. You can only use these circumstances to make a claim against Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH if you begin proceedings within a week of the event.
§ 6 Breakages
Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH accept responsibility for any accidental damage or breakages which occur during delivery. The customer is obligated to report any damage to Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH within 3 days of the discovery otherwise it may not be possible to make a claim against the transporter or the transporters insurance company. If a delivery can't be made because the customer isn't at the given delivery address at the agreed time then the customer must be held responsible for the failed delivery and will pay the costs accordingly. Once the customer has accepted and signed for the undamaged goods any damage or breakage which occurs thereafter is their responsibility.
§ 7 Guarantee & conditions
Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH provide a two year guarantee on all goods, products and accessories bought from the derksen.de after the delivery date of said wares. The legal rights of the guarantee are not affected at all by this. The passing on of this buyers advantage to a third party is forbidden. If the delivered goods are found to be damaged or don't comply with the customers reasonable expectations because of fabrications or material failure Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH will replace or correct the wares provided the guarantee is still valid. Repeated replacements are permitted. If the third replacement is unsatisfactory or it's not possible to make a delivery deadline of three months the buyer can choose to either ask for a reduction in price or cancel the contracts extension. Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH must be notified in writing about obvious failures or damages within two weeks of the delivery date.

In the case of a successful return both sides are involved with a returned goods issue which can be used for obvious benefits (e.g. second hand sale), when a clear deterioration of the wares is apparent compensation can be claimed. This doesn't apply when the deterioration of the goods can possibly be traced back to a traders failure upon examination. You can also lose the right to compensation when you've caused the resultant deterioration by misuse before operating the appliance or could have avoided the damage if you'd taken more care in not allowing the misuse which impaired the worth. Requests for a refund of monies paid must be fulfilled within thirty days. The deadline for you begins when you return the goods or the delivery extension, for us when we receive them.
The cost of returning goods will be paid by Derksen Lichttechnik GmbH up to a cost of 40€. Postal charges along with the purchase price will be refunded immediately.

Exception to the cancellation
The right to cancellation doesn't apply to goods which have been specially made to a customers specifications or are obviously made for their personal usage.
