  3. Prices / Shipping costs

    The prices stated at the time of ordering apply. We are subject to differential taxation according to §25a UStG.

    Packaging and shipping costs will be invoiced separately. The amount of the costs will be calculated depending on the weight and/or size of the shipment and will be communicated to the customer in advance by e-mail before the final acceptance of the order. Johnny-Tapete always selects the cheapest option for the customer.

    If the shipment is made outside the EU, customs duties may be payable by the recipient.

  4. Invoicing / Payment / Due date / Retention of title

    Invoices shall be issued for the purchase price of the goods and the stated packaging and shipping costs, as specified in the order confirmation or advance invoice.

    Unless otherwise agreed, payments shall always be made in advance by bank transfer or deposit to our account.

    Please do not send cash or checks for payment. We exclude any liability for loss.

    Johnny-Tapete reserves the right to withhold deliveries and/or services until full payment has been made in the event of late payment.

    The goods remain the property of Johnny-Tapete until full payment has been made.

  5. Liability / Warranty

    Please note that the commodities and antiques offered here - in particular electrical appliances and lamps - may not be subject to current safety regulations. For your own safety and to avoid danger to body, health or life for yourself or other persons, it is therefore strongly recommended that you seek the advice of a specialist in the field of electronics/electrical engineering before using electrical appliances and lamps and have them technically checked for any dangers they may pose.

    The warranty for the delivery of new items to consumers is 2 years. An item is considered new if it has the following characteristics:

    Unused and unopened product in very good condition (brand new), not a display or demonstration item, all manufacturer's seals, if any, are intact. Complete original packaging, which may show minor signs of storage, and original scope of delivery are present. The manufacturer's initial warranty, if applicable, is still valid.

    Towards consumers, the warranty for the delivery of used items (antiques, second-hand) is limited to 1 year; this does not apply in cases of § 309 S. 1 No. 7 BGB.

    In all cases of slight negligence, the warranty is limited to the foreseeable damage.

    No warranty is assumed towards entrepreneurs with regard to used articles; liability towards entrepreneurs is also excluded in particular in the cases of § 309 sentence 1 no. 7 BGB. The provisions of the HGB remain unaffected.

  6. Delivery

    Delivery is made against prepayment. After receipt of payment on our account, we will ship the following working day. Your goods will be delivered by DHL or UPS.

    Delivery in absence: Please make sure that a person is present on the day of delivery or that a neighbor can accept your delivery.

  7. Delivery reservation

    In the event of strikes, labor disputes, lockouts or official measures as well as the occurrence of unforeseen events beyond our control, such as operational disruptions or delays in the delivery of essential materials, we release ourselves from the obligation to deliver for the duration of these hindrances, provided that they can be proven to have a significant influence on the delivery of the delivery item. If the hindrance lasts longer than six weeks, both the Customer and Johnny-Tapete have the unilateral right to withdraw from the contract.

This also applies to any loopholes that may need to be filled.
