Terms of Service

§ 1 SCOPE OF APPLICATION

(1) These General Terms and Conditions of Sale (hereinafter referred to as "T&C") shall apply between us (Aquarius Deutschland GmbH) and you as our customer for any and all offers, purchase agreements, deliveries, and services as a result of orders you placed in our online shop www.carrera.de (hereinafter referred to as "Online Shop"); the T&C shall apply in the version that is valid and applicable at the point in time when the order is being placed.

(2) The product range offered in our Online Shop is targeted at both consumers and entrepreneurs. However, it is targeted exclusively at end buyers. Within the meaning of these T&C, (i) a “consumer” shall mean a natural person who enters into the contract for purposes that cannot be attributed to their commercial or self-employed trade, business, or professional activities (Section 13 BGB [Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, German Civil Code]), and (ii) an “entrepreneur” shall mean a natural or legal person or a partnership vested with legal capacity who or which, when entering into the contract, acts in exercise or their commercial or self-employed trade, business, or professional activities (Section 14 BGB [Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, German Civil Code]).

(3) Terms and conditions of the customer shall not be applicable, even if we do not reject them explicitly and/or specifically in any individual cases.

§ 2 CONTRACTUAL BASIS AND CONCLUSION OF THE CONTRACT

(1) The fact that we present and market our products and offer the possibility to order them in our Online Shop does not constitute a binding offer on our part. The order which is being placed by you constitutes an offer to us to enter into a purchase agreement. When you place an order with us, we will send you an e-mail confirming receipt of your order and containing the details of your order to the e-mail address provided by you (Order Confirmation). The Order Confirmation is merely an acknowledgement that we have received your order and does not constitute an acceptance of your offer. The offer is only accepted when we confirm the offer to you (by e-mail), or when we dispatch the goods without any previous explicit declaration of acceptance.

(2) The Customer Service is offered by our service partner Aquarius Deutchland.

§ 3 RIGHT OF REVOCATION

(1) If you are a consumer (see § 1 (2) (i)) you are entitled to a right of revocation in accordance with statutory law.

(2) If you are asserting your right of revocation pursuant to Subsection (1), you have to bear the immediate costs for the return.

(3) In all other respects, the provisions which are contained in detail in the following revocation notification shall apply with respect to the right of revocation:

Right of revocation

You have the right to revoke this contract within fourteen days without giving any reasons. The revocation period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquire(s) the material possession of the goods.

In order to exercise your right of revocation, you are obliged to notify us (Aquarius Deutschland GmbH, c/o Wir Packen’s GmbH, Widerruf AQD, Bessemer Straße 14, 40699 Erkrath; e-mail: widerruf@carrera.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of an express and unambiguous declaration to this effect (e.g. by a letter sent by post or e-mail).

You may also use the model revocation form for this purpose; however, you are not obliged to do so. Dispatching the notification of exercise of the right of revocation before expiry of the revocation period shall be deemed to be sufficient for compliance with the revocation period time limit.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall reimburse you for all payments that we have received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of any additional costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), immediately and not later than within fourteen days from the date on which we have received your notification of revocation of this contract. For this reimbursement, we shall use the same means of payment that you have used for the original transaction, unless we have explicitly agreed otherwise with you; in any case, you will not be charged any fees in connection with this reimbursement. We may refuse the reimbursement until we have received the returned goods or until you have provided evidence that you have sent the goods back, whichever is earlier.

You are obliged to return or hand over the goods immediately and in any case within fourteen days from the date on which you inform us about the revocation of this contract, to Aquarius Deutschland GmbH, c/o Wir Packen’s GmbH, Widerruf AQD, Bessemer Straße 14, 40699 Erkrath. This period shall be deemed to be complied with if you dispatch the goods prior to the expiry of the period of fourteen days. The immediate costs of returning the goods shall be borne by you. You shall only be liable to pay for any diminished value of the goods if such diminished value results from any handling other than what is necessary to ascertain the nature, features, and functioning of the goods.

  • for the delivery of non-prefabricated goods that are made on the basis of an individual choice of or decision by the consumer or which are clearly personalised to match the consumer’s needs,
  • for the delivery of sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons in the event that they were unsealed after delivery,
  • for the delivery of goods which are, after delivery, according to their nature, inseparably mixed with other items.
