2. Conclusion of the contract
Subject of the contract is the sale of goods.
As soon as the respective product is posted on our website, we are submitting a binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions specified in the item description.
You can submit your purchase offer by telephone, in writing or via the ordering system integrated in the online shop. The contract language is German.
3. Order process in the online shop system
Please note the following when purchasing via the online shop system:
In order to be able to buy items from the range of goods as a customer of the online shop, you must first register using the »Login« function.
As a new customer, the customer must register in advance. Existing customers can log in directly with their e-mail address and password.
After successfully logging in, you as a customer can select products from the range of goods and place them in the »shopping cart«.
In the shopping cart, the customer can select the delivery quantity of the desired goods, as well as add or remove goods. When the customer has completed the selection process, he uses the "order for a fee" button to submit a binding application to purchase the goods that are in the shopping cart under the conditions listed there.
Before submitting the order, the customer can view, change or delete his selection at any time.
However, the order can only be placed and transmitted if the customer has previously accepted these contractual conditions by clicking on "I accept your general terms and conditions" and thereby included them in the contractual relationship and in particular in their order.
Immediately after the order has been sent, K3 PLUS sends the customer an automatic confirmation of receipt by email, in which the customer's order is listed again. The customer can also print out this confirmation of receipt. The automatic confirmation of receipt only documents that k3 PLUS has received the customer's order. However, this email does not represent an acceptance of the customer's application.
A sales contract is only concluded between k3 PLUS and the customer when k3 PLUS sends the goods and / or expressly confirms the order with a second email.
