Agreements deviating from these terms and conditions must be recorded at least in text form for verification purposes.

1.2  If an order is placed by telephone, the employee of Merchandising GmbH will only issue a verbal confirmation of receipt. This does not constitute acceptance of the offer. The contract is only concluded by a declaration of acceptance by e-mail or post or by sending the goods, whereby the date of conclusion of the contract is deemed to be the date of receipt of the goods by the customer.

1.3  When placing an order in the online store, clicking the "Buy now" button constitutes an offer to Merchandising GmbH to conclude a purchase contract. Minors require the consent of their legal guardians to place an order. Immediately after receipt of your order, you will receive an e-mail confirming receipt of your offer, without this already constituting acceptance of the offer. The acceptance of your offer (and thus the conclusion of the contract) by Merchandising GmbH takes place by means of a declaration of acceptance by e-mail or post or by sending the goods.

1.4  All goods remain the property of Merchandising GmbH until the purchase price and all claims associated with the purchase have been paid in full.

1.5  When ordering via our online store, the ordering process comprises a total of 5 steps. In the first step, you select the desired goods. In the second step, you enter your customer details including billing address and, if applicable, a different delivery address or log in with your login details if you are already registered. In the third step, select the shipping method. In the fourth step, you choose how you would like to pay. In the fifth step, you have the opportunity to check all the details (e.g. name, address, shipping method, payment method, items ordered) once again and correct them if necessary before you send us your order by clicking on 'Buy now' or cancel the order process by leaving the page.

1.6  We do not save the contract text of your order. You can print out the text before sending your order to us by clicking on "Print" in the browser in the last step of the ordering process. We will also send you an order confirmation with all the order details to the e-mail address you have provided. In this e-mail or in a separate e-mail, but at the latest upon delivery of the goods, we will send you the text of the contract (consisting of the order, GTC and order confirmation) on a permanent data carrier (e-mail or paper printout) (contract confirmation).

1.7  The contract shall be concluded in German.

2.  agreement on return costs, exclusion of revocation for tickets, revocation instructions

2.1  If you make use of your right of withdrawal, we will bear the regular costs of the return shipment.

This exception is referred to separately under 2.4 in the cancellation policy.

Pursuant to Section 312g (2) No. 9 BGB, the right of withdrawal for contracts for the provision of services in connection with leisure activities is excluded if the contract provides for a specific date or period for the provision of services. Please understand that a right of withdrawal cannot therefore be granted for events booked for a specific date and that contracts for tickets are not covered by the right of withdrawal.

2.3  Consequences of revocation

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; under no circumstances will you be charged any fees for this repayment. We may withhold the refund until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case within fourteen days at the latest from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the period of fourteen days has expired.

6.  payment modalities

6.1  Payments can be made

• cash on delivery (plus a cash on delivery fee of € 4.50); or
• by credit card accepted by Fan Service (VISA or Mastercard), or
• by SOFORT bank transfer, or
• via PayPal, or
• by voucher card

Orders from abroad cannot be processed by cash on delivery. Orders from abroad can only be paid by credit card or PayPal.

6.2  Payment by credit card is made by entering the credit card number, expiry date and, if applicable, CVC number in the corresponding input fields of the order dialog. We use the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption method, which currently meets the highest security standards on the Internet.

As soon as you have entered your data during payment and clicked on the confirmation button, your details are sent in encrypted form. They are thus protected from external access.

6.3  The SOFORT AG system is used for payment by instant bank transfer. The prerequisite is that the customer has an activated online banking account with PIN/TAN procedure. Please note that Sofortüberweisung is not yet available at a few banks. When using SOFORT-Überweisung, you will be securely redirected to your bank's or savings bank's online banking after entering your sort code. Here you log in as usual. The system will automatically display a bank transfer containing all the details of the order: Invoice amount,

reason for payment and bank details. You authorize the transfer by entering a TAN. Finally, in the last step of the SOFORT transfer, you will receive a confirmation of the successful payment, which you can print out. The only requirement for payment with SOFORT is a current account with a bank that is activated for online banking. No registration is necessary.

6.4  You can change the payment method saved in your user account at any time.

6.5  Payment of the purchase price is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract. If the due date of payment is determined by the calendar, you are already in default by missing the deadline. In this case, you must pay Werder Merchandising default interest of 5 percentage points above the base interest rate for the year.

6.6  The customer's obligation to pay default interest does not preclude Werder Merchandising from claiming further damages caused by default.

7.  Warranty, liability

7.1  The statutory warranty rights shall apply. The statutory warranty period begins with the delivery of the item and generally runs for two years, in exceptional cases longer if necessary, see § 438 BGB. In the event of a defect, you have the statutory right to subsequent performance within the statutory warranty period (at your discretion: rectification of the defect or new delivery) and - if the statutory requirements are met - the statutory rights to a reduction in price or withdrawal and also to compensation. You must grant us a total of two attempts to rectify the defect. If the type of subsequent performance requested by you is only possible at disproportionate cost, your claim shall be limited to the other type of subsequent performance.

7.2  Damage caused by natural wear and tear, unsuitable or improper handling or use, non- compliance with the care instructions, changes to the products including subsequent finishing, e.g. by flocking or chemical influences, are not subject to the warranty unless Merchandising GmbH is responsible for them.

7.3  If the supplementary performance has taken the form of a replacement delivery, you are obliged to return the goods first delivered to Merchandising GmbH within 30 days at the expense of Merchandising GmbH.

7.4  Merchandising GmbH shall be liable without limitation insofar as the cause of the damage is based on intent or gross negligence.

7.5  Furthermore, Merchandising GmbH is liable for the slightly negligent breach of essential obligations, the breach of which jeopardizes the achievement of the purpose of the contract, or for the breach of obligations, the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which you regularly rely. In this case, however, Merchandising GmbH is only liable for the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. Merchandising GmbH is not liable for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those mentioned in the preceding sentences.

7.6  The above limitations of liability shall not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health, for a defect following the assumption of a guarantee for the quality of the goods and in the event of fraudulently concealed defects. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

7.7  Insofar as the liability of Merchandising GmbH is excluded or limited, this also applies to breaches of duty by Merchandising GmbH's vicarious agents.

8.  procurement risk; lapse of the delivery obligation; extension of delivery times

8.1  Merchandising GmbH does not assume any procurement risk, even if it is a purchase contract for generic goods. We are only obliged to deliver from our stock of goods and the delivery of goods ordered by us from our licensees and suppliers.

8.2  Our obligation to deliver shall not apply if we ourselves are not supplied correctly and on time despite a proper congruent covering transaction and we are not responsible for the lack of availability, we have informed you of this immediately and we have not assumed a procurement risk. In such cases, Merchandising GmbH will reimburse any advance payments without delay.

8.3  The delivery period shall be extended appropriately in the event of circumstances affecting delivery due to force majeure. Force majeure includes strikes, lockouts, official interventions, energy and raw material shortages, transport bottlenecks through no fault of our own, operational hindrances through no fault of our own, for example due to fire, water and machine damage, and all other hindrances which, from an objective point of view, have not been culpably caused by us. We will inform you immediately of the beginning and end of such hindrances. If the impediment to performance in the aforementioned cases lasts for a period of more than 4 weeks after the originally applicable delivery times, you are entitled to withdraw from the contract. Further claims, in particular for damages, do not exist.
