1. scope of application

1.1 All offers, orders, deliveries and services of the Contractor shall be governed exclusively by the following terms and conditions. In particular, they regulate the conclusion, content and execution of contracts between the Customers and Erika Peherstorfer, Erich-Fried-Weg 16, 4030 Linz (hereinafter referred to as the Contractor), for the performance of services in the field of custom tailoring, fashion, design, pattern making and cosplay production.

 

1.2 You can reach our Customer service for questions, complaints and objections at "cosplaywerkstatt@tsuya.at".

 

1.3 Consumer in the sense of these terms and conditions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for a purpose that can be attributed predominantly neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity (§ 13 BGB).

 

1.4 The GTC shall be deemed to have been accepted and thus legally binding when the order is placed by the Client. Any conflicting terms and conditions of business and purchase of the Customer (Client) shall not become part of the contract, even without express objection by the Contractor, unless these have been expressly agreed in writing.

1.5 These general terms and conditions shall be deemed to have been accepted by the placing of the order. They shall also apply to future transactions between the contracting parties, even if no express reference is made to them.

​

1.6 If the buyer (Customer) acts on behalf of someone else, he is liable for the formation and fulfilment of the order regardless of fault.

2. order and services, delivery

 

2.1 The contractor's offers are to be understood merely as an invitation to the Customer to place an order and are subject to change and non-binding.

 

2.2 After an inquiry has been made, a non-binding offer shall be made by the Contractor. If this non-binding offer is accepted by the Customer, this leads to an order, but not yet to the conclusion of a contract. The contract is only concluded when the agreed amount has been paid into the Contractor's account. The date of the conclusion of the contract is the date of receipt of payment.

Before receipt of payment, both the Customer and the contractor can withdraw from the offer.


Silence on the part of the Customer does not constitute acceptance of the non-binding offer. Silence on the part of the Contractor shall not be deemed to be approval or acceptance of an order.

 

2.3 In the case of open orders, where no contract has yet been concluded by the Customer, the Contractor reserves the right not to accept further enquiries from the Customer. This also applies to outstanding payments for contracts already concluded.

 

2.4 Custom-made products, adaptation of fabrics and garments to individual needs as well as other separate specifications or requirements of the Customer for the subject matter of the contract or for the services to be provided by the Contractor or other additional services and deliveries by the Contractor require the express written confirmation of the Contractor and must be carried out in accordance with this confirmation. Deviations from this confirmation as well as subsequent requests for changes must be made in writing and can only be carried out - without legal claim of the Customer - in exceptional cases and against corresponding reimbursement of costs. The choice of the (preliminary) supplier is left to the contractor, the purchase from a certain or other source of supply cannot be demanded by the Customer.

 

2.6 The contractor reserves the right to choose the mode and route of dispatch and there is no obligation to choose the cheapest mode of transport. Packaging shall be carried out in the customary manner, whereby any packaging exceeding this shall be at the expense of the Customer. Express and air freight surcharges will be charged separately. Transport insurance will only be taken out on behalf and at the expense of the Customer.

3.1 Agreed delivery periods (also to be derived from delivery dates) shall not commence until all factual, technical or other information, documents, down payments or other services of the Customer required by the Contractor to fulfil its obligations have been confirmed as received. This applies in particular to products (e.g. made-to-measure products) specially manufactured according to Customer requirements, for which the Customer has a special obligation to cooperate. If the Customer repeatedly violates this obligation to cooperate, the Contractor shall also be entitled to withdraw from the legal transaction and/or to claim damages by setting a 14-day deadline. The agreement of binding delivery dates or deadlines between the contractor and the Customer must be made in writing in any case.

 

3.2 The delivery date shall be deemed to have been met if the goods have left the factory/warehouse in good time or - in the case of collection by the Customer - the delivery is ready for dispatch and the Customer is notified of this in good time.

ustomer can set a reasonable extension of at least 3 weeks, provided that the expected delivery date or the expected delivery deadline has been exceeded by more than 4 weeks.
