You may resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business; you assign to us in advance all claims arising from this resale - irrespective of any combination or mixing of the goods subject to retention of title with a new item - in the amount of the invoice amount, and we accept this assignment. You remain authorised to collect the claims, however, we may also collect claims ourselves if you do not meet your payment obligations.
8 Damage in transit
The following applies to consumers: If goods with obvious transport damage are delivered, please complain about such defects to the delivery agent as soon as possible and contact us immediately. Failure to make a complaint or contact us has no consequences for your legal claims and their enforcement, especially your warranty rights. However, you help us to be able to assert our own claims against the carrier or the transport insurance company.
The following applies to entrepreneurs: The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration passes to you as soon as we have delivered the item to the forwarding agent, the carrier or any other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. Among merchants, the obligation to examine and give notice of defects as regulated in § 377 HGB (German Commercial Code) applies. If you fail to make the notification regulated there, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, unless it is a defect that was not recognisable during the inspection. This shall not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect.
9 Warranty and guarantees
Unless expressly agreed otherwise below, the statutory liability for defects shall apply.
The following applies to the purchase of used goods by consumers: if the defect occurs after the expiry of one year from delivery of the goods, claims for defects are excluded. Defects that occur within one year from delivery of the goods can be claimed within the legal limitation period of two years from delivery of the goods.
For entrepreneurs, the limitation period for claims for defects in newly manufactured goods is one year from the transfer of risk. The sale of used goods is carried out under exclusion of any warranty. The statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse according to § 445a BGB remain unaffected.
In relation to entrepreneurs, only our own information and the manufacturer's product descriptions included in the contract shall be deemed to be an agreement on the quality of the goods; we shall assume no liability for public statements by the manufacturer or other advertising statements.
If the delivered item is defective, we shall initially provide a warranty to entrepreneurs at our discretion either by eliminating the defect (rectification of defects) or by delivering a defect-free item (replacement).
The above restrictions and shortening of deadlines do not apply to claims based on damage caused by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents.
- in case of injury to life, body or health
- in case of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty and fraudulent intent
- in case of violation of essential contractual obligations, the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the contractual partner may regularly rely (cardinal obligations)
- within the framework of a guarantee promise, if agreed
- as far as the scope of application of the product liability law is opened.
