The customer must return the goods received and reimburse the contractor a reasonable fee for use and services received, including remuneration for any wear and tear and associated reduction in value of the goods. The receipt of goods or services by the customer shall not in itself be regarded as a ground for devaluation.

Information regarding the right of cancellation

Right of cancellation

You can cancel your contract within the 14 day deadline without declaring any reasons, either in writing (e.g. by letter or e-mail) or if the goods have been delivered - by returning the goods before the expiry of the deadline. The time limit begins after receipt of this notice in written form, but not before receipt of the goods(in case of recurring deliveries of similar goods, not before receipt of the initial delivery) and also not before fulfilling the obligation to inform in acc. article 246 § 2 in connection with § 1 para. 1 and 2 EGBGB as well as our duty in acc. § 312g para. 1 clause 1 BGB in connection with article 246 § 3 EGBGB.

The letter of cancellation is to be sent to:

“MaxMartin” Ltd Trading Company
Pürnstein 43a
A-4120 Neufelden
office@maxmartin-shop.com

Consequences of cancellation

In the case of a valid cancellation both parties have to return the goods/payments received and profits, if applicable (i.e. interest) shall be reimbursed. If the goods cannot be returned in the condition in which they were delivered, the customer is required to make a financial compensation for devaluation. This however does not apply if the condition of the goods is such as it would be in any shop after a legitimate inspection of the goods by the customer. The customer can avoid the obligation to provide compensation for devaluation by not using the goods for the purpose they were originally intended and by refraining from doing anything that could impair their value. The customer does not have to pay the costs of returning items if the goods delivered do not match the items ordered.
Transportable items which can be returned by parcel carrier are to be returned at our risk. The customer must bear the cost of returning the goods if the goods delivered are those that were ordered and if the price of returning the items does not exceed € 100, - or if, in the event of the price of the goods being higher at the time of cancellation, the consumer has not yet paid for the goods or made a deposit in accordance with a contractual agreement for payment by instalment. Otherwise, the return is free of charge. Items too large to be returned by parcel carrier will be fetched directly from the customer. Obligations for the refund of payments must be made within 30 days. The deadline begins for the customer with the dispatch of the notice of cancellation or return of goods, for the contractor upon receipt.

Your right of cancellation shall expire prematurely if the contract, upon express request, has been executed in full by both parties prior to your exercising your right of cancellation.
