1. Scope of application of the GCV

2. Characteristics of the works
The artworks sold on the shop.andreasgaertner.de website are numbered and signed art prints by the artist Andreas Gärtner. They are delivered with a certificate of authenticity.

The characteristics of the Works and format are detailed in individual cards available in the various categories of the e-shop proposed at the address shop.andreasgaertner.de. The purchaser is held to take note of these characteristics before placing order. The Works are delivered without framing or finishing touches.

The colours of the art Work may vary between the display on the Buyer's screen and the physical prints received by the Buyer. This is due to the wide variety of monitor technologies available and their ability to render all colours of the spectrum. Andreas Gärtner uses a calibrated screen with colors that conform to the results on paper. Andreas Gärtner cannot be held responsible if the colours of the prints do not conform to what the Buyer sees on his screen.

The prices are expressed in Euros including taxes.

The prices take into account possible reductions which would be granted by the Salesman on the shop.andreasgaertner.de site.

These prices are firm and non-revisable during their period of validity, but the Seller reserves the right to modify the prices at any time outside the period of validity.

Prices do not include shipping, transport and delivery costs, which are invoiced in addition, under the conditions indicated on the site and calculated before the order is placed.

For all sales, an invoice is drawn up by the Seller and sent to the Buyer by email and a physical copy is sent upon delivery of the Works ordered.

In the event of an order to a country other than Germany, the Purchaser is the importer of the Work(s) concerned. For all Works sent outside the European Union, the price will be calculated exclusive of tax automatically on the invoice.

Customs duties or other local taxes or import duties or state taxes may be payable. They shall be borne by the Buyer and are his sole responsibility.

After this period and if these formalities have not been respected, the works will be deemed to be in conformity and free of any apparent defect and no claim can be accepted by the Seller. The Seller will reimburse or replace, as soon as possible and at his own expense.

The transfer of the risks of loss and deterioration relating thereto will only be carried out at the time when the Buyer takes physical possession of the Work. The products therefore travel at the Seller's risk, except when the Buyer has chosen the carrier himself. In this respect, the risks are transferred at the time of delivery of the goods to the carrier.

The Buyer then has a period of 14 days following the withdrawal to return the Works. The return costs will be charged to the Buyer.

The works must be returned in their original condition (packaging, certificates of authenticity and accessories). If these conditions are not met, the works will not be returned or reimbursed, the Seller reserving this choice at its sole discretion.

In the event that the right of withdrawal is exercised, the Seller will proceed with the reimbursement of the sums paid, within 14 days following receipt of the Work in its premises and via the same means of payment as that used for the order.
