§ 1 Extent of Application
These Terms and Conditions apply to the contract of sale concerning products from the watch shop of Uhrzeit.org GmbH, in the following referred to as Uhrzeit.org, and the buyer. Internal arrangements are possible, however these should be acknowledged by both parties to avoid possible evidence problems. The customer´s acknowledgement can be sent to shop(at)uhrzeit.org.
§ 2 Conclusion of Contract
The prices of the watch shop are to be seen as an invitation for the buyer to place a bid, however not as a binding offer. By sending an order the customer places a bid for the ordered watches. Uhrzeit.org accepts the offer by either sending an individual e-mail of acceptance within seven workdays or by sending the ware within fourteen days, starting from the day the payment was received. The e-mail of acknowledgement following the order is not an acceptance of the contract, it contains Instructions of Recall concerning distance selling laws, and these Terms and Conditions. The payment for wares takes place in advance, by credit card or cash on delivery to Uhrzeit.org. If Uhrzeit.org does not accept the customer´s offer (e.g. if the ware is not available) Uhrzeit.org informs the customer immediately and will return already possibly paid amounts to the customer.
