1.1 For purchase contracts between MOROTAI GmbH, Carl-Zeiss-Str. 4, 75217 Birkenfeld, Germany (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") and the customer (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") via the Morotai Online Shop ( https://morotai.de/ ), the following General Terms and Conditions of Business (AGB) apply, regardless of whether the customer orders the goods as a consumer or as an entrepreneur.
1.2 You can reach our customer service for questions, complaints and objections on working days from 10:00 to 17:00 on 07231/37401 90 and by e-mail at info@morotai.de .
1.3 A consumer in the sense of § 13 BGB is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor his independent professional activity. Entrepreneur in the sense of § 14 para. 1 BGB is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity, which acts in exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity when concluding the contract.
1.4 Deviating conditions of the customer will not be accepted unless the seller expressly agrees to their validity. These General Terms and Conditions shall also apply if the Seller makes a delivery to the Customer without reservation in the knowledge of the Customer's conflicting or deviating terms and conditions.
1.5 Any additional or deviating agreements to these GTC that are made between the seller and the customer for the execution of a contract must be set out in writing. This also applies to the cancellation of this written form requirement.
1.6 Rights to which the seller is entitled according to the statutory provisions beyond these GTC remain unaffected.

2. offers and service descriptions
2.1 The presentation of the products in the online shop is not a legally binding offer, but an invitation to place an order. Performance descriptions in catalogues as well as on the websites of the seller do not have the character of an assurance or guarantee.
2.2 All offers are valid "while stocks last", unless otherwise stated with the products. In all other respects errors are reserved.

3. order process and conclusion of contract
3.1 The customer can select products from the seller's range without obligation and collect them in a so-called shopping cart by clicking the button "add to cart". Afterwards, the Customer can proceed to the conclusion of the ordering process within the shopping cart by clicking on the button "Continue to checkout".
3.2 By clicking the button "Order subject to payment" the customer submits a binding request to purchase the goods in the shopping cart. Before sending the order, the customer can change and view the data at any time. Necessary details are marked with an asterisk (*).
3.3 The seller then sends the customer an automatic acknowledgement of receipt by
e-mail, in which the customer's order is listed again and which the customer can print out using the "Print" function (order confirmation). The automatic confirmation of receipt merely documents that the vendor has received the customer's order and does not constitute acceptance of the request. The sales contract is only concluded when the seller confirms the dispatch of the goods to the customer by means of a separate e-mail or by dispatching the goods.
3.4 If a delivery of the ordered goods is not possible, for example because the corresponding goods are not in stock, the seller refrains from a declaration of acceptance. In this case a contract is not concluded. The seller will inform the customer of this without delay and refund any consideration already received without delay.

4. prices and shipping costs
4.1 All prices stated on the Seller's website are inclusive of the statutory value added tax applicable at the time.

5. delivery and availability of goods
5.1 If advance payment has been agreed upon, delivery shall be effected after receipt of the invoice amount.
5.2 The seller is entitled to make partial deliveries, provided this is reasonable for the customer.
5.3 The goods are delivered to the delivery address specified by the customer. Unless otherwise agreed, the goods are usually dispatched to the customer within 1 to 3 working days after conclusion of the contract and receipt of payment. This does not constitute a binding delivery period.
5.4 If the delivery of the goods to the delivery address specified by the customer fails despite three delivery attempts, the seller can withdraw from the contract. Any payments made will be refunded to the customer without delay, whereby the seller may deduct any damage suffered.
5.5 If the ordered product is not available because the seller is not supplied with this product by his supplier through no fault of his own, the seller will inform the customer immediately and, if necessary, suggest the delivery of a comparable product. If no comparable product is available or the customer does not wish to receive a comparable product and the hindrance lasts longer than 2 months, both parties are entitled to withdraw from the contract. Further rights remain unaffected.
