We contract exclusively under the following
conditions.
Any telephone calls, conversations,
documents etc. deviating from this shall only be valid if and insofar
as they have been confirmed by us in writing by the managing director
of Goiserer Parkett. Insofar as our
current price list or special offers
contain more up-to-date terms and conditions of sale, delivery and payment,
these shall take precedence over
the corresponding terms and conditions below, insofar as reference
is made to such price lists and/or
special offers before or upon conclusion of the contract.
By placing an order, the buyer confirms that he is
familiar with the published information sheets and installation instructions
and that these are an integral part of the

4820 Bad Ischl, Austria. Austrian law applies.

2. OFFER / ORDERS
Our offers are non-binding until receipt of
acceptance (in the case of a written offer) or our

to sell the goods to third parties in the case of
verbal orders, in particular telephone orders.
Orders, in particular telephone orders, without
an underlying written offer shall only be
deemed accepted upon receipt of our letter of acceptance
or the delivery note.

with the content of the letter of acceptance sent to him,
he must notify us of this in writing without delay,
but at the latest within 3 working days.

of delivery, the changes shall be borne
by the buyer. Prices are generally ex works,
loaded, excluding VAT (unless otherwise stated),
including standard packaging.
Confirmed prices shall only apply if the ordered quantity is accepted,
sales prices shall only apply as fixed prices if confirmed in writing,
otherwise the prices valid on the day
of delivery according to our price list shall apply
excluding statutory VAT.

in our product range, Goiserer Parkett is
entitled to deliver an excess quantity of up to 10%.
