§2 Conclusion of contract

You only submit a binding offer for the goods previously placed in your shopping cart when you click the button "Order with obligation to pay" on the order confirmation page. We will inform you about the receipt of your order with an acknowledgement of receipt by e-mail, in which we list the details of your order (order confirmation). This order confirmation does not yet constitute an acceptance of your offer, but is only intended to inform you that we have received your order. The purchase contract is only concluded when we ship your ordered goods and confirm the shipment with a second e-mail (shipping confirmation).
(2) Prior to issuing a binding order via the online order form, you can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. You can correct your entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until you click the button that concludes the ordering process.
