The prices quoted on the product pages include the statutory VAT and other price components. In addition to the prices stated there is a charge for shipping and handling. You can also find these shipping charges laid out clearly in the shopping basket system and on the order page. The charge for shipping and handling includes the statutory VAT. As the VAT on the shipping and handling charge depends on the goods purchased, it can be reduced when goods are purchased at a lower VAT rate. This means that the shipping and handling charge can only be calculated definitely during the ordering process.
Consumers have the right to cancel contracts which have been concluded through this internet page within fourteen days without giving reasons. A consumer is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction for a purpose which can mainly be seen as belonging to neither their commercial nor their self-employed professional activity. The cooling-off period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party designated by you and who is not the carrier, have/has taken possession of the goods. In order to exercise your right of cancellation you have to inform us, the Tante Emma AG, Bahnhofstrasse 33, 75305 Neuenbürg, mail: contact@wachtigall.com, Fax-Nr. +49 7082 944 3974 of your decision to cancel the contract by means of a clear statement (e.g. a letter by mail, telefax or e-mail). The cooling-off period shall be deemed observed if you post your notification on the exercise of the right of cancellation before the end of the cooling-off period.
If you cancel a contract, we have to refund all payments that we have received from you, including the delivery charges (with the exception of the additional cost arising from the fact that you have chosen a different delivery method than the economic standard delivery offered by us) without delay and no later than within fourteen days from the day on which we have received the notification of your cancellation. The refund can be made by another method of payment than the one that you used for the payment unless this makes you incur additional costs. We can refuse the refund until we have received the returned goods or until you have provided proof that you have sent the goods back, whichever is the earlier date. You have return the goods to us without delay and at any rate no later than within fourteen days from the day on which you notified us of the cancellation of this contract. The date shall be deemed observed if you send the goods off within fourteen days. You shall bear the immediate cost of the return of the goods. You will only be held responsible for any deterioration of the goods if this deterioration is due to a handling of the goods which is not necessary for the verification of the condition, properties and functioning of the goods.

– for the delivery of sealed goods which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if the seal was removed after delivery; – for the delivery of goods which, due to their nature, were mixed inseparably with other goods after delivery; for the delivery of audio and video recordings or computer software in sealed packaging if the seal was removed after delivery.
We offer you the following methods of payment. Just choose the payment method that is best for you. The delivery charges depend partly on the method of payment chosen. The prices quoted for the different offers are final prices. They include all price components including any taxes due such as VAT. Only for international deliveries further taxes can be raised in individual cases (e.g. in case of an intra-Community acquisition of a good) and/or fees (e.g. customs duties) can be charged which will be payable by you, however, not to the Seller but to the responsible customs or revenue authorities. The charges for delivery and shipping are not included in the purchase price. They can be called up via the page „delivery charges“ and will be set out separately during the ordering process. You will have to pay them in addition to the purchase price.
