General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information

I. General Terms and Conditions

Section 1 – Basic Provisions

  1. The following Terms and Conditions apply to contracts concluded between you and us as the provider (Kevin Maiwald) via the website https://vintageforest.de. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any terms and conditions used by you is hereby rejected.

  2. A consumer within the meaning of the following provisions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly cannot be attributed to their commercial or independent professional activity.

    An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their independent professional or commercial activity.

Section 2 – Conclusion of the Contract

  1. The subject matter of the contract is the sale of goods.
  2. By placing the respective product on our website, we submit a binding offer to conclude a contract via the online shopping cart system under the conditions specified in the product description.

  3. The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:

    The goods intended for purchase are placed in the “Shopping Cart”.

    You may access the “Shopping Cart” via the corresponding button in the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.

    After clicking the button “Checkout” or “Proceed to Order” (or similar designation) and entering your personal data as well as payment and shipping information, the order details will be displayed to you as an order overview.

    If you use an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal Express, PayPal Plus, PayPal Checkout, Amazon Pay, SOFORT, giropay), you will either be directed to the order overview page in our online shop or redirected to the website of the payment service provider.

    If a redirection takes place, you must make the corresponding selection or enter your data there.

    Finally, the order details will be displayed to you either on the website of the instant payment provider or after you are redirected back to our online shop.

    Before submitting the order, you have the opportunity to review the information again, modify it (including by using your browser’s “Back” function), or cancel the order.

    By submitting the order via the corresponding button (“Order with obligation to pay”, “Buy”, “Buy Now”, “Place Order”, “Pay”, “Pay Now” or similar designation), you legally declare acceptance of the offer, whereby the contract is concluded.

  4. Your inquiries regarding the preparation of an offer are non-binding.

    We will provide you with a binding offer in text form (e.g. by email), which you may accept within 5 days unless another acceptance period is specified in the offer.

  5. Order processing and the transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract are carried out partly automatically via email.

    You must therefore ensure that the email address you have provided is correct, that emails can be received technically, and that delivery is not prevented by spam filters.

The selection of the securities to be released shall be at our discretion.
