The contract language is German. The version in German language of this disclaimer is binding - this English translation is provided for informational purposes only.

General terms and conditions of Business

We conduct business exclusively as stated following. Please read these terms carefully. Any changes or different conditions can only be agreed to, when confirmed by us in writing. All offered objects are subject to confirmation. Our business terms are as follows:

1. Price and Invoice

Minimum Order Billing is in EURO (€) only. All prices are including the legal VAT. Each shipment will be accompanied by an invoice showing single item price, subtotal sum, shipping costs and VAT amount itself. The minimum order amount is 9.50 Euro.

2. Delivery to Switzerland and other non-EU countries

We will gladly ship any orders to Switzerland or any other non-EU country. Payment without any additional bank charges to our account is an essential condition or payment through Paypal. The refund of VAT after an export to third party countries will be carried out by means of the initially chosen method of payment. For this we require proper export certificates in the original stamped provided with a customs stamp. Because of the costs we charge a processing fee of 10,00 EUR which is deducted from the tax to be refunded. When refunded to a foreign bank account, the customer must bear the full transfer costs resulting from this money transfer. If delivery is made to non-EU countries, additional customs duties, taxes or fees may be payable by the customer, but not to the supplier, but to the competent customs or tax authorities there. The customer is advised to ask the customs or tax authorities for details before placing an order.

3. Alteration of Offers

Delivered items may differ in grain and wood structure from descriptions and product photos, however, a note will be made under the dimensions in each item description indicating this possible deviation in the sense of "Sample photos, actual pieces may differ." If the description of the item expressly refers to the binding illustration, e.g. in the sense of "You will get excactly the depicted blank", you will receive exactly the item offered and illustrated. Please also note the information on the article pages in particular, in which we refer to the small cracks, bark ingrowths, pin knots and swirls typical of burl wood; these are to be accepted as typical of the material and do not constitute grounds for complaint.

4. Dimensions and Measures

Wood is a natural material that reacts to changes in humidity or temperature fluctuations even after - years, so that wood dried for countless years or even stabilized wood can react to this with shrinkage, warping or dimensional changes. Therefore, even with careful measurement of the dimensions, tolerances to the delivery dimension may occur. These can be +/- 1-5 mm, or even more in the case of larger pieces. All dimensions mentioned have been determined conscientiously, but due to the characteristics of the material they are to be regarded as approximate dimensions with a tolerance customary for the material. Pieces of wood with angular cross-sections, longitudinal edges or corners may be rounded or have minor defects such as dents, indentations, sapwood or bark residues. Wood pieces that are intended for specific uses on the basis of a clear description, such defects are no reason for complaint, as these spots would disappear anyway during processing for the intended purpose. In the event of deviations between the approximate dimensions stated in the object description (=typographical errors) and the dimensions which are legibly noted on the timbers or can be determined on the basis of a metric scale shown, the value shown in the illustrations shall in any case be binding for the delivered item.
