The customer initially has the choice of whether subsequent performance is to be carried out by means of repairs or a replacement delivery.However, we are entitled to refuse the type of supplementary performance chosen by the customer if it is only possible with disproportionate costs and the other type of supplementary performance does not result in significant disadvantages for the customer.During the supplementary performance, the purchaser cannot reduce the purchase price or withdraw from the contract.A subsequent improvement is deemed to have failed with the unsuccessful second attempt, unless something else arises from the nature of the item or the defect or the other circumstances.If the supplementary performance has failed or if we have refused the supplementary performance altogether, the customer can either demand a reduction in the purchase price (reduction) or withdraw from the contract.

        Attachment 1:

        Notes

        Transparency requirement

        This commandment means that, in case of doubt, a clause in general terms and conditions is also unreasonably disadvantageous if it is not clear and understandable.This requirement means that non-transparent clauses per se are to be regarded as ineffective without the addition of an unreasonable disadvantage for the contractual partner in terms of content.Furthermore, this also means that the requirement of transparency also applies to price determinations and clauses describing services, which are generally exempt from content control.

        Warranty periods

        In the case of purchase and work contracts, the warranty period is 2 years.Obligation to report defects

        For non-obvious defects, the period for notification of defects must not be shorter than two years (for used goods: one year) in the general terms and conditions.The start of the period is the statutory start of the limitation period.

        Reimbursement of expenses for supplementary performance

        According to § 439 para.2 BGB, the expenses required for the purpose of supplementary performance (e.g.Btransport, travel, labor and material costs).This obligation may not be excluded by general terms and conditions.


        Limitation to supplementary performance

        In the event of a defective item, the buyer can choose to have the defect rectified or delivery of a defect-free item as supplementary performance.Only if subsequent performance is unsuccessful, not possible or unreasonable can the buyer – secondarily – assert warranty rights: withdrawal or price reduction. Restrictions solely on subsequent performance are ineffective if the other party to the contract is denied the right to a price reduction if the subsequent performance fails.

        Limitations of Liability

        Any exclusion or limitation of liability for damage resulting from injury to life, limb or health that is based on an intentional or negligent breach of duty by the user or an intentional or negligent breach of duty by a legal representative or vicarious agent of the user is ineffective .

        Amount of default interest

        From the beginning of the delay, the buyer owes the seller default interest in addition to the purchase price.If a consumer is involved in the purchase contract, either as a buyer or as a seller, the interest rate is 5% above the base rate.In the case of sales contracts between entrepreneurs, the interest rate is 8% above the base rate.

        At https://www.federal bank.de/Redaktion/DE/Standardartikel/Bundesbank/Zinssaetze/basiszinssatz.html, the current base interest rates can be determined.
