  1. If an offer has only a limited period of validity or is subject to certain conditions, we will expressly state this in our offer.
  2. We always describe as completely and accurately as possible what we sell you and how the ordering process will proceed. In any case, the description is sufficiently detailed to allow you to make a good assessment. If we use images, they are a true representation of the goods and/or services offered. However, to err is human and if we have obviously made a mistake, we are not obliged to deliver you.

Your order is complete and the agreement between us is final as soon as we confirm your order by e-mail and as soon as we have received approval from the card issuer for your payment transaction with credit or debit cards. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, PayPal and iDEAL. If the issuer of your card refuses to authorize your payment to us, we cannot be held responsible for delays in the delivery and/or non-delivery of your order. Orders without valid payment in the name of the registered cardholder will not be accepted or processed.

Once you have completed these steps, your purchase is final.

Article 4 - Right of withdrawal

  1. If you buy goods or services from us, you have 14 days from delivery or the conclusion of the agreement has the right to decide that you do not want to keep the goods.

In case of partial payment by credit card, we will refund it to your account.

  4. During the first 14 days after delivery, we expect you to handle the order and the packaging with care. If you still want to be able to return the goods as described above, you may only unpack or use them to the extent necessary to assess whether you wish to keep the goods. Returned goods may be appropriate, but may not have been used. If you return the goods, this must be done together with the original packaging, with all accessories supplied and in the original condition and packaging and taking into account our instructions below.
