Conclusion of Contract

Customers place their orders online. The offer to conclude a sales contract is contained in the binding dispatch of the order after the customer has placed the products in their basket and confirmed their selection by clicking the "confirmation" button. The customer can change the entries at any time until the "confirmation" button is clicked. The contract enters into force when SPC sends the customer an order confirmation by e-mail.

Changes to Orders

Any order placed by a customer is binding on the customer. Once the order has been submitted, the customer can no longer make any changes to it. Any existing right to cancel remains unaffected by this paragraph.

The website may contain or provide information regarding the availability of merchandise. This information can be used to estimate the likelihood that an item will be available immediately upon Order placement. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that an item stated to be available will actually be available right away, as inventory can change throughout the day. In rare cases, a product may be available when you place an Order but sold out by the time we process the Order. Should this happen, we will notify you.
