However, in the case of consignment purchase, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods as well as the risk of delay shall pass to the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise responsible for carrying out the consignment.
(3) If the buyer is in default of acceptance, fails to cooperate or if our delivery is delayed for other reasons for which the buyer is responsible, we shall be entitled to demand compensation for the resulting damage including additional expenses (for example storage costs).

The request for publication does not at the same time include the explanation of the resignation; we are rather entitled to demand only the goods and to reserve the right of withdrawal. If the buyer does not pay the due purchase price, we may only assert these rights if we have unsuccessfully set a reasonable deadline for payment to the buyer or if such a deadline is dispensable according to the statutory provisions.
(4) The buyer is authorized to resell and / or process the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. In this case, the following provisions additionally apply.

7 Claims for defects of the buyer
(1) For the rights of the buyer in case of material and legal defects (including wrong and short delivery as well as improper installation or faulty assembly instructions), the statutory provisions shall apply, unless otherwise stated below. In all cases, the statutory special provisions remain unaffected on final delivery of the goods to a consumer (supplier recourse in accordance with §§ 478, 479 BGB).
(2) The basis of our liability for defects is above all the agreement made on the nature of the goods. An agreement on the condition of the goods is deemed to be product descriptions (also of the manufacturer) which have been given to the buyer before his order or have been included in the contract in the same way as these terms and conditions. Insofar as the condition has not been agreed, it must be judged according to the legal regulation whether or not there is a defect (§ 434 (1) Sections 2 and 3 BGB). However, we do not assume any liability for public statements made by the manufacturer or other third parties (for example, advertising statements).
(3) The claims of the buyer for defects presuppose that he has complied with his statutory inspection and complaint obligations (§§ 377, 381 HGB). If there is a defect during the examination or later, we must be notified immediately in writing. The notification is deemed to be immediate if it takes place within two weeks, whereby the timely dispatch of the advertisement is sufficient to meet the deadlines. Regardless of this obligation to inspect and to give notice of defects, the purchaser must notify us in writing of obvious defects (including incorrect and short delivery) within two weeks of delivery, whereby the timely dispatch of the advertisement is also sufficient to meet the deadlines. If the buyer fails to properly examine and / or report a defect, our liability for the non-indicated defect is excluded.
(4) If the delivered item is defective, we can first choose whether we provide supplementary performance by rectification of the defect (rectification) or by delivery of a defect-free item (replacement). Our right to refuse supplementary performance under statutory conditions remains unaffected.
(5) We are entitled to make the subsequent performance owed dependent on the buyer paying the purchase price due. The buyer is, however, entitled to retain a portion of the purchase price which is reasonable in relation to the defect.
(6) The buyer must give us the time and opportunity required for the owed supplementary performance, in particular to hand over the rejected goods for examination purposes. In case of replacement, the buyer has to return the defective item according to the legal regulations. The supplementary performance does not include the removal of the defective item or the reinstallation if we were originally not obliged to install.
(7) The expenses required for the purpose of testing and subsequent performance, in particular transport, travel, labor and material costs (not: dismantling and installation costs), shall be borne by us if there is actually a defect. If, however, a defect removal request of the buyer turns out to be unjustified, we may demand compensation for any costs incurred by the buyer.
(8) In urgent cases, e.g. in case of endangerment of operational safety or to avoid disproportionate damage, the buyer has the right to remedy the defect himself and to demand compensation from us for the objectively necessary expenses. We are to be informed immediately of such self-assertion, if possible beforehand. The right to self-assertion does not exist if we were entitled to refuse a corresponding supplementary performance according to the statutory provisions.
(9) If the supplementary performance has failed or a reasonable period to be set by the Buyer for the supplementary performance has expired without success or is dispensable in accordance with the statutory provisions, the Buyer may withdraw from the purchase contract or reduce the purchase price. In a minor defect, however, there is no right of withdrawal. The reason must be in writing.
(10) Claims by the purchaser for compensation for damages or reimbursement of futile expenses exist only in accordance with § 8 and are otherwise excluded.

Essential to the contract are the obligation to timely delivery, whose freedom from defects that affect its functionality or serviceability more than insignificantly, as well as advisory, protective and custody duties that allow the buyer to use the contractual object or the protection of life or limb of Buyer's personnel or the protection of their property from significant damage.
(3) Insofar as we are liable for damages in accordance with § 8 para. 2 of these GTC, this liability is limited to damages which we foresaw at the time of conclusion of the contract as a possible consequence of a breach of contract or which should have been foreseen when applying customary care. Indirect damage and consequential damage, which are the result of defects in the delivery item, as well as substitute only insofar as such damage can typically be expected in the case of the intended use of the delivery item.
(4) In the case of liability for simple negligence, our obligation to pay compensation for property damage and the resulting further pecuniary loss is limited to EUR 1,000 per claim, even if it is a violation of essential contractual obligations.
(5) The above exclusions and limitations of liability shall apply to the same extent in favor of our organs, legal representatives, employees and other vicarious agents.
(6) Insofar as we provide technical information or act as consultants and this information or advice does not belong to the contractually agreed scope of services owed by us, this is done free of charge and to the exclusion of any liability.
(7) The restrictions of this § 8 AVB do not apply to the liability of the seller for intentional behavior, for guaranteed characteristics, for injury to life, limb or health or under the Product Liability Act.
(8) Due to a breach of duty that does not exist in a defect, the buyer can only resign or terminate if we are responsible for the breach of duty. A free right of termination of the buyer (in particular according to §§ 651, 649 BGB) is excluded. Incidentally, the legal requirements and legal consequences apply. Unless there is no intentional breach of contract, ours
-
9 Statute of limitations
(1) Notwithstanding § 438 (1) No. 3 BGB (German Civil Code), the general limitation period for claims arising from material and legal defects is one year from delivery.
(2) The above periods of limitation of the purchase right also apply to contractual and non-contractual claims for damages of the buyer, based on a defect of the goods, unless the application of the regular statutory limitation (§§ 195, 199 BGB) would in individual cases to a shorter limitation period to lead. The limitation of the product liability law remain unaffected in any case. Otherwise apply for claims for damages of the buyer acc. § 8 exclusively the statutory limitation periods.
-
10 Choice of law and jurisdiction
(1) For these GTC and all legal relations between us and the buyer, the law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to the exclusion of international uniform law, in particular the UN Sales Convention. Conditions and effects of the retention of title acc. § 6 AVB are subject to the law at the respective production location of the thing, as far as the choice of law in favor of German law is inadmissible or ineffective thereafter.
(2) All contractual and non-contractual disputes arising out of or in connection with contracts for which the validity of these GCS is intended shall be finally settled under the arbitration rules of the German Institution of Arbitration (DIS), excluding ordinary legal proceedings. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators and, in the case of disputes of less than € 5,000, a referee. The place of arbitration is Wiesbaden, the language German. However, we are also entitled, in individual cases, to bring an action before the competent court or the state courts at the place of business of the buyer or other law enforcement agencies.
