Prices, shipping costs and customs duties

​

• Small business regulation: We would like to point out that Eckert & Mayer GbR falls under the small business regulation and are therefore exempt from VAT according to § 19 UStG. All our prices are therefore without VAT, therefore this is not shown separately in the invoice.

• In addition to the stated prices, we charge shipping costs for delivery. These can vary depending on the recipient's address and will be shown to you during the payment process even before the order is charged. The shipping costs are calculated based on the weight and displayed in the shopping cart. You can choose between "normal shipping", i.e. without tracking and "insured shipping", with tracking. Certain products, such as jewelry and all international orders we send only insured.

• Please note that, for orders from outside the EU, customs fees may apply. These customs fees are usually collected by the delivery service before the order is shipped. If the fees are not paid, the shipment will be returned to us. In this case we will of course refund the order value, but not the shipping costs.

​

​

Delivery

​

• The delivery time within Germany is usually 2-5 business days. We point out possible deviating delivery times on the respective product page.

• The delivery times for international orders can vary depending on the recipient country and take up to 2 - 6 weeks.

​

 

Payment

 

• Payment can be made either in advance or cash at on-site sales, Apple Pay or PayPal.

• If you choose payment in advance, we will give you our bank details in the order confirmation and deliver the goods after receipt of payment.

​

​

Retention of title

Until full payment, the goods remain our property.

​

Dispute resolution

The EU Commission has created an Internet platform for online dispute resolution. The platform serves as a contact point for the out-of-court settlement of disputes concerning contractual obligations arising from online purchase contracts. More information is available at the following link: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board for the resolution of disputes with consumers. The competent consumer arbitration board is: Universalschlichtungsstelle des Bundes Zentrum für Schlichtung e.V., Straßburger Straße 8, 77694 Kehl am Rhein, www.verbraucher-schlichter.de. In order to settle the aforementioned disputes, we will participate in a dispute resolution procedure before this body.

​

Final provisions

 

• Should one or more provisions of these GTC be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.

• Contracts between you and us shall be governed exclusively by German law, to the exclusion of the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG, "UN Sales Convention"). Mandatory provisions of the country in which you usually reside shall remain unaffected by the choice of law.

• If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, our place of business shall be the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with contracts between us and you.
