All orders accepted by ENS are subject to the Terms and Conditions set out below:

(Updated version March 2017)

1. General

1.1 All orders for products and services at www.europeannailshop.com (“European Nail Shop website”), accepted by Uwe W. Göldner e.Kfm. (“ENS”) including all subsequent transactions, even if we do not expressly refer to - especially in the case of orders made electronically or by telephone - are subject to these terms and conditions. No other terms and conditions will apply to the supply of products and services, unless agreed in writing.

1.2 ENS is a supplier of business customers ("Customers"). We sell exclusively to entrepreneurs (§ 14 BGB - Civil Code of Germany) and not to private individuals, acting as consumers.

1.3 All descriptions and presentations of the products and services contained on the European Nail Shop website or otherwise communicated to any customer of such products or services are approximate only and shall not form any part of the contract between ENS and the Customer. ENS is not liable to the Customer for any errors or omissions on the European Nail Shop website or other product advertisement.

1.4 The advertising of products and services on the  website is not an offer capable of acceptance; it merely constitutes an invitation by ENS for the Customer to make an offer to purchase products and services. ENS acceptance of the Customer's order will take place when ENS confirms pricing, handling charges, freight charges and packaging costs to the Customer in writing as Pro Forma Invoice (“PFI”). 

1.5 Our PFI in writing including these Terms and Conditions evidences the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with the respect to the subject matter of the contract. At the time of the conclusion of the contract, no other agreements are made. With the exception of ENS, our employees and agents are not entitled to accept differing agreements orally. For evidential purposes, all agreements in respect of performance of this agreement shall be made in writing.

1.6 We must receive payment for the total invoice sum written in the PFI, at which point a contract will come into existence between ENS and the Customer, unless we have agreed otherwise in writing in advance.

2. Prices, Costs & Charges

2.1 The prices of the products and services are as set out on the European Nails Shop  website. ENS reserves the right to change prices without prior notice at any time. The prices of products and services can be found on the European Nail Shop site and are transferred at the time of acceptance of an order as well as communicated in writing in the PFI. ENS reserves the right to change prices at any time without prior notice.

2.2 All prices of products and services are exclusive VAT. ENS will add the VAT (to the rate valid on the day of order acceptance), if statutory value added tax is obligated.

2.3 In the case of small orders, a handling charge is calculated according to the following table due to the increased handling expenses:
For orders under € 250: A handling charge of € 50 will be invoiced
For orders under € 500: A handling charge of € 30 will be invoiced
For orders above € 500: Order is free of handling charge.

2.4 For each order packaging costs will be charged. We calculate the cost of packaging according to the order and notify them in writing in the PFI.

2.5 Delivery costs apply per order, irrespective of the number of products ordered. The customer bears the costs of shipping: Freight charges, customs fees and other charges incurred on delivery are valid at the time of delivery. The Customer's delivery options, and the prices for them, will be calculated after order and send in writing as PFI. In the event that the prices of our own suppliers, freight charges and/or public fees should increase between the date the supply agreement was concluded and the date of delivery - and hence our expenses as well - we shall be authorized to increase our prices accordingly. In this case the customer will be notified of the new prices immediately.

2.6 From a value of goods over € 500 per package, package insurance per carton unit is charged according to the following table:
Within EU: € 5 (insurance up to a value of € 2.500)
Out of the EU: € 10 (insured up to a value of € 2.500)
In the case of ship pallets, shipping insurance is included.

2.7 For every payment by PayPal a payment charge of 2.95 % of the total invoice sum will be charged.

3. Ordering

3.1 ENS reserves the right to decline to trade with any Customer. ENS can decline the acceptance of an order, whether payment has been received or not, by phone or electronically within a reasonable time after receipt of the order. ENS may also revoke orders, which have already been accepted; this is effected by telephone or electronically within a reasonable time after confirmation of the order. If ENS rejects or revokes an order for which a payment has already been made, the Customer will be refunded the amount as quickly as possible and practicable.

3.2 ENS executes orders to the Customer's requirements, but may provide substitute products when requested by the Customer. To the extent that orders cannot be fulfilled completely from stock, the unfulfilled balance will either be deferred to be fulfilled when ENS next has available stock or be cancelled and the value of the goods is credited to the Customer account.

3.3 The Customer must submit orders using the ENS stock numbers and the priced units used on the ENS website.  If the Customer orders the wrong product or number of products, the provisions of clause 6 (Complaint) apply.

The delivery period is not essential.

6.2 If the Customer fails to give any such notice, the products shall be conclusively presumed to be, in all respects, in accordance with the order and free from apparent defects, and the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the products accordingly. ENS' record of the products despatched (including the quantity) shall be conclusive evidence of the products received by the Customer, unless proved otherwise by the Customer.

6.3 In the case of a goods withdrawal from goodwill, we are entitled to charge a reimbursement fee of 15% of the returned goods value, at least € 15, at most € 250.

6.4 The remedies set out above are the Customer's exclusive remedies for non-delivery or short delivery of products, or for apparent defects in the products or delivery of products not in accordance with the order.

8.2 In the event of any such product being materially defective, and subject to the provisions of clause 6. (Complaint) surrounding defects apparent on delivery, ENS will (at its option) replace or repair the product or refund the purchase price.

8.3 These warranties shall not apply to any defect, which arises from improper storage or use, further failure to follow the product instructions.
