This delivery time does not apply to goods that will be modified at the customer's request (we will inform you of the length of the delivery time) or that are yet to be manufactured. Sometimes it may happen that goods marked "in stock" are sold out in a short period of time. Should a situation arise where we run out of goods and are unable to deliver the goods you have ordered within the time specified, then we will contact you to agree on the next course of action. Despite the stated delivery time, we always try to prepare and deliver the order to the customer as soon as possible.

9.3. Převzetí zboží. Při přepravě zboží zákazníkovi spotřebiteli je námi zboží předáno v okamžiku, kdy dopravce předá zboží zákazníkovi na místě předání (zpravidla první dveře/vrata/brána v místě dodání určené zákazníkem). Právě okamžikem převzetí zboží zákazníkem přechází na zákazníka nebezpečí škody a nahodilého zhoršení kvality zakoupeného zboží. Pokud měl zákazník zboží od dopravce převzít, přechází nebezpečí nahodilého zničení a nahodilého zhoršení kvality zakoupeného zboží na zákazníka v okamžiku, kdy mu bylo umožněno se zbožím disponovat, ne však dříve než v udanou dobu doručení. V případě osobního vyzvednutí si zboží zákazníkem se považuje zboží za dodané okamžikem převzetí zákazníkem či jinou osobou zákazníkem určenou.

9.4. Náklady na zvláštní způsob přepravy. V případě, že je způsob dopravy smluven na základě zvláštního požadavku zákazníka, nese zákazník riziko a případné dodatečné náklady spojené s tímto způsobem dopravy.

9.5. Opakované doručení a náklady s tím spojené. V případě, že je z důvodů na straně zákazníka nutné zboží doručovat opakovaně nebo jiným způsobem, než bylo určeno v objednávce, je zákazník povinen uhradit náklady spojené s opakovaným doručováním zboží, resp. náklady spojené s jiným způsobem doručení.

Receipt of goods. When goods are transported by us to a consumer, the goods are handed over to us when the carrier hands over the goods to the customer at the point of handover (usually the first door/gate/gate at the delivery point designated by the customer). It is at the moment of receipt of the goods by the customer that the risk of damage and accidental deterioration of the purchased goods passes to the customer. If the customer should have taken over the goods from the carrier, the risk of accidental damage and accidental deterioration of the purchased goods passes to the customer at the moment he is allowed to dispose of the goods, but not before the stated delivery time. In the case of personal collection of the goods by the customer, the goods shall be deemed to have been delivered at the moment of receipt by the customer or another person designated by the customer.

9.4 Costs of special mode of carriage. In the event that a method of transport is agreed upon at the customer's special request, the customer bears the risk and any additional costs associated with that method of transport.

9.5 Re-delivery and costs associated with it. In the event that, for reasons on the part of the customer, it is necessary to deliver the goods repeatedly or by a different method than that specified in the order, the customer is obliged to pay the costs associated with the repeated delivery of the goods or the costs associated with a different method of delivery.

9.6. 

Damage that may be incurred by the seller by not taking delivery of the goods. If the customer consumer does not take over the goods when they are delivered by the carrier, the goods are subsequently returned to the Seller and at the same time the customer consumer does not withdraw from the purchase contract within 14 days of the unsuccessful delivery of the goods, the Seller is entitled to claim from the customer the costs charged by the carrier for the delivery of the goods back to the Seller. This cost constitutes damage to the seller which has been caused by the breach of the customer's legal obligations within the meaning of Section 2913(1) of the Civil Code. The Seller is also entitled to charge a fee for storage of the goods in the amount of 100,- CZK (in words: one hundred Czech crowns) and the Seller is also entitled to withdraw from the purchase contract.

9.7 Non-acceptance of goods in relation to the entrepreneur. If the entrepreneur customer does not take delivery of the goods when they are delivered by the carrier, the goods are subsequently returned to us as the seller, we are entitled to claim from the entrepreneur customer the costs charged by the carrier for delivery of the goods back to our address. This cost constitutes damage for the seller which has been caused by the breach of the legal obligations of the customer-entrepreneur within the meaning of Section 2913 (1) of the Civil Code. The seller is also entitled to charge a storage fee of CZK 100,- (in words: one hundred Czech crowns) and is also entitled to withdraw from the purchase contract.

9.8. 

Possibility of offsetting claims. We are entitled to unilaterally set off the claim for payment of the costs of storage of the goods and the claim for compensation for damages for breach of the customer's legal obligations under this part of the GTC against the customer's claim for refund of the purchase price in accordance with § 2913 of the Civil Code.

9.9 Obligations of the customer upon receipt of the goods. The customer is obliged to inspect the goods upon receipt and to ascertain their characteristics (in particular whether the customer has received the correct type of goods, whether the goods are of the agreed quality, whether the goods contain everything in their packaging that the instructions say they should contain). In case of visible damage to the consignment by the carrier, the customer is obliged not to accept such consignment from the carrier at all. We shall not be liable for any damage caused by the carrier or late delivery of the goods, whatever the reason for the delay.

9.10 Defect Rights. The rights of customers in the event of exercising the right of defects shall be governed by our Complaints Procedure and by the relevant provisions of Czech law, in particular the Civil Code.

  1. WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PURCHASE CONTRACT

    10.2 The right of withdrawal is only available to consumers. Business customers have the right to withdraw from the purchase contract as permitted by the relevant legislation. A business customer does not have the right to withdraw from the purchase contract without giving any reason within 14 days of delivery of the goods, this right belongs only to the consumer. Provided that the customer entrepreneur returns the goods to us, and if this is not an exercise of the right of defects under the Civil Code, we are entitled to charge the storage costs of these goods in accordance with clauses 9.7 and 9.8 of these GTC and we will also invite the customer entrepreneur to take back these goods.

    10.3 Out of Stock Procedure. We shall be entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Contract due to out of stock of the goods or due to unavailability of the ordered goods.
