3. In order to place an order, you must be at least 18 years old. If you are not 18, we ask you to have the order placed by your parents or legal guardian. If we become aware that an order has been placed by a minor, we may refuse the order.
4. Placing an order on the website constitutes explicit acceptance of our general terms and conditions of sale, which are always available via the website.

6. If, in addition to these general terms and conditions, additional special terms and conditions apply, the above also applies to those special terms and conditions. Should our general terms and conditions conflict with these special terms and conditions, you as a consumer can always invoke the most advantageous text to your advantage.

Article 3 – Our offer and your order

1. If an offer only has a limited period of validity or is subject to certain conditions, we will explicitly 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. The description is in any case 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, making a mistake is humane and if we are obviously mistaken, we are not obliged to supply you.
3. 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 the card issuer’s approval for your credit or debit card payment transaction. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, Bancontact, Bank Transfer, Paypal. If the issuer of your card refuses to agree to your payment to us, we cannot be held responsible for delays in 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.
4. To purchase a product, add the product to your shopping basket. Then enter your contact and invoicing details. You then choose your method of delivery: [list here the possible methods of delivery such as sending to a specific address, picking up from a shop,…]. In the last step you will get an overview page, accept our general terms and conditions and confirm your payment by pressing the order button with the caption “order with payment obligation”. 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 the right to decide that you do not want to keep the goods for 14 days from the order or the conclusion of the contract. Make sure that the product is unused, parts are not connected and are still in the original packaging. The packaging must not be damaged If the products have been used by the Consumer or have been damaged in any way, the right of revocation or dissolution of the contract expires. Please inform customer service at all times of the fact that you wish to return a product. it is therefore really a trial period. You can return the order (you pay the costs yourself) we advise you to return it with a parcel number so that the parcel can be tracked ( track en trace). We are allowed to charge you €12,50 handling fee, when returning appliances this will be 25 euro. Within 14 days after we have received your order back or you have indicated that you wish to renounce the agreement, we will pay you back by bank transfer ( please add your bank account to the order form ) the purchase price minus the costs.
