We reserve the right to refuse this payment method based on the results of the credit check. You will be informed of this during the eBay purchase process.

§ 5 Warranty
(1) The statutory liability for defects applies.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage immediately upon delivery and to report any complaints to us and the carrier as soon as possible. If you do not do this, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
§ 6 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law applies. In the case of consumers, this choice of law only applies to the extent that it does not deprive the consumer of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which he or she is habitually resident (favorability principle).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from the business relationship with us and the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, provided that you are not a consumer but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if your place of residence or habitual abode is not known at the time the action is brought. The right to also bring the case before a court at another legal place of jurisdiction remains unaffected.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
