§ 2 Conclusion of the contract

2. The conclusion of a contract by executing an order via a marketplace is subject to the terms and procedures of the respective marketplace provider.
3. By clicking on the "Checkout" button on one of the websites, the items are placed in the shopping cart of the 11ecom webshop for ordering.
4. When placing an order in the webshop, the customer goes through the following technical steps:
o Click on the "Checkout" button in the shopping cart on a website
o Forwarding to the general order overview page (webshop checkout), where the individual purchase steps are then carried out:
o Step 1: Entering the "billing address" or "delivery address"
If the billing and delivery addresses are not identical, the customer can specify a "different delivery address" by clicking on the checkbox.
o Step 2 Select "Payment method" and "Shipping method"
Select the "Payment method" by clicking on the desired payment method in accordance with § 3 paragraph 4.
If an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal / PayPal Express, Amazon Payments, Sofortüberweisung, or similar) has been selected as the payment method, the customer will either be taken to the webshop order overview page or redirected to the website of the provider of the instant payment system. If the customer is redirected to the respective instant payment system, he/she will make the appropriate selection or enter your data.
Select the "Shipping method" by clicking on the desired shipping method.
Depending on the shipping method, the customer can specify whether their contact details may be passed on to the shipping service provider.
o Step 3: Order overview
In the next section, "Order overview", all order data and the total price are displayed in an overview; if the customer pays with an instant payment system, the order overview is displayed on the provider's website, depending on the provider; by clicking on "Go to homepage", it is possible to change the contents of the shopping cart. If available, a voucher can be redeemed.
o Finalize the order by accepting these terms and conditions and the data protection provisions and clicking on the "Buy now" button.
The customer can access the individual order steps via the usual functions of his internet browser.
5. By clicking on the "Buy now" button, the customer places a binding order for the goods in the shopping cart. A confirmation of receipt of the order will follow immediately after the order has been sent. The purchase contract will only be concluded with our separate order confirmation. The contract text will be saved and the order data and the General Terms and Conditions will be sent to the customer by e-mail.
6. 11ecom offers products that are intended exclusively for professional use. These products are marked on the websites by an additional article designation "PRO" (e.g. SE215 PRO) or the note "For professional use only". These products are intended exclusively for professional use in accordance with applicable EU regulations on volume limitation and may not be used in the private consumer sector. These products can therefore only be ordered by companies, who must provide their company name and VAT registration number.
7. 11ecom reserves the right not to provide the promised service if it becomes apparent after the contract has been concluded that the goods are not available, although a corresponding transaction has been concluded, or if consumers or companies with an invalid VAT registration number have ordered products that are intended exclusively for professional use. In such a case, the customer will be notified immediately. Any consideration already provided will be refunded immediately. Further claims against 11ecom are excluded.
§ 3 Prices
1. The product price stated on the website and in the webshop is given in GBP for deliveries to the UK, in PLN for deliveries to Poland, in CHF for deliveries to Switzerland and in EUR for deliveries to other EU countries and includes the respective country-specific value added tax ("VAT"). The percentage and amount of the VAT are stated on each invoice.
2. No VAT is charged for deliveries to Switzerland. 11ecom pays all customs duties and taxes when the goods are imported into Switzerland. The customer receives the goods without additional payment (DDP Delivered Duty Paid).
3. For tax-free intra-community deliveries to corporate customers in the EU outside Germany with a valid VAT registration number, no VAT is charged.
4. The product price does not include transportation or shipping costs. The customer must pay the transportation and shipping costs for the products in accordance with § 4.

In such a case, the customer will be notified immediately. Any consideration already provided will be refunded immediately. Further claims against 11ecom are excluded.
4. If the customer is a business (§ 14 BGB), delivery is always at the customer's risk. This also applies to partial deliveries. If the customer is a consumer within the meaning of § 13 BGB, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold item, even in the case of a sale to destination, shall only pass to the customer upon delivery of the item. The transfer is deemed to have taken place even if the buyer is in default of acceptance. The delivery is made to the delivery address provided by the customer.
5. Shipping costs per order in the webshop
Deliveries to EU countries and the UK are free of charge.
For deliveries to Switzerland, a shipping fee of CHF 15 is charged, but no additional customs duties or fees are charged to customers in Switzerland.

For deliveries to countries outside those listed in §4 paragraph 1 and to the regions listed in § 4 paragraph 2, additional transportation costs, customs duties or fees will be charged to the customer.
7. Unless otherwise stated in the respective offer, delivery of the goods within Germany will be made within 2 - 3 working days, and for deliveries abroad within 5 - 7 working days after conclusion of the contract (in the case of agreed advance payment, after the date of your payment instruction). Please note that no delivery will be made on Sundays and public holidays and, depending on the shipping service provider and the country of delivery, also on Saturdays.
Due to force majeure and restrictions imposed by the shipping service providers, e.g. due to special weather conditions, pandemics or other crises, delivery may be delayed in exceptional cases. The seller shall not be in default as a result.
8. The goods must be inspected for transport damage immediately upon receipt by the customer or his representative if the customer is a merchant within the meaning of the German Commercial Code (HGB). The customer, who is a merchant within the meaning of the German Commercial Code (HGB), must have any detectable transport and packaging damage confirmed in writing by the transport company upon acceptance of the goods and report this to 11ecom. We ask customers who are consumers, without any legal obligation, to also report any obvious transport damage to us.
§ 5 Statutory right of withdrawal
-- Start of the cancellation policy --
1. Right of withdrawal
As a consumer (Section 13 of the German Civil Code), you have the right to revoke this contract within fourteen days without stating any reasons. The revocation period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, took possession of the last item of goods.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, the customer must inform us (11ecom GmbH, Stolberger Str. 368, 50933 Cologne, Germany, phone: 00800 - 2 8974873, e-mail: shure@11ecom.de) of his decision to withdraw from this contract by means of a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or e-mail). He may use the attached model withdrawal form or the online withdrawal form, which are not mandatory.
To comply with the cancellation period, it is sufficient for the customer to send the notification of the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the cancellation period expires.
2. Consequences of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs arising from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will make the refund using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in no case will you be charged for this refund.
We may refuse to reimburse you until we have received the returned goods or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier.
You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case no later than fourteen days from the day on which you inform us of the cancellation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the fourteen-day period has expired.
We will bear the costs of returning the goods, except for costs for express deliveries (i.e. if you did not choose standard delivery). You will only have to pay for any loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is due to handling of the goods that was not necessary for the purpose of examining their nature, characteristics and functioning.
-- End of the cancellation policy --
