Goods mean namely new or refurbished parts for cars and trucks, agricultural, forestry and construction machinery and ships (also referred to as “parts”).

Under a Contract for the Provision of Services we commit to repair a part that you sent, and you commit to accept the repaired part (either in person or from a carrier) and pay us the repair price listed in the purchase order.  The repair, according to these Business Terms and Conditions, means any activity that will fix defects, consequences of damage or effects of wear. By concluding a contract, you acknowledge and agree that the repair may be performed also by a third party. This shall in no way affect our responsibility for the quality of services provided.

The purchase price or repair price (hereinafter "price”) shall include also the cost associated with goods delivery and possible charges related to the selected method of payment. You will be notified about the amount of this cost before you place a binding order.

You shall acquire an ownership right to the goods upon payment of the whole price but not before you accept the goods.

1.2.          Is the contract a consumer contract?

It is a consumer contract in case you are a consumer, i.e., if you are a physical entity and buy the goods outside your business framework or outside your independent performance of your job. In any other case, it is not a consumer contract and the contract between us is not made according to these Business Terms and Conditions but according to General Business Terms and Conditions of Wholesale.

By sending a purchase order and by confirming on the website that you got familiar with these Business Terms and Conditions and agree with them.

We may change or amend the Business Terms and Conditions. Your rights and duties shall be always governed by the wording of the Business Terms and Conditions effective at the time these rights and duties arose.

 

     2.        CONTRACT   

2.1.          How do we conclude a contract?

There is a list of goods on the website, which includes descriptions of main properties for each item. There is a price listed for each item of goods including all taxes, customs duties, and charges. The website also lists the services we provide. Service prices are based on a current price list published on the website (hereinafter “price list”) and it may be changed depending on the extent of damage. You are going to be informed about a possible price change. If you do not agree with the price change, you may withdraw from the contract.

Presentation of goods and services is for information only, it is not out proposal for the conclusion of a contract in terms of § 1732 Sec. 2 Civil Code. For the contract conclusion it is necessary for you to send us a purchase order and for us to accept it.

2.2.          How to place a purchase order?

You can always place an order through the website (by filling out the form), or by phone, e-mail, or in other possible ways we offer based on current information on the website.

The purchase order shall contain all the information specified in the form, namely accurate identification of the goods (possibly numerical designation of goods) or service ordered, number of pieces, selected method of payment and transportation, and your contact information (for delivery or billing).

In case of an order in the so-called exchange system, you may select an option that we buy your used or damaged part. In that case a refundable security deposit may be charged (for more details see Art. 2.5 below). Please note that the transportation of the used or damaged part may be subject to charge as per the price list.

Before you send a binding purchase order, you will be given a recap of the order including final price, refundable security deposit, and a total cost of selected type of transportation and payment. We recommend that you pay extra attention namely to the type and quantity of goods, e-mail address, and delivery address. Recap is your last chance to change the information entered.

You submit a binding purchase order by clicking on “Confirm Order”. We consider the information in a binding order to be correct and complete. Inform us without undue delay by phone or e-mail if this information changes.

We will inform you when we receive an order. The information (confirmation) about the receipt of an order is sent automatically; it is not our acceptance of order unless it is explicitly stated in the confirmation.

If we are in doubt as to whether the order is real and serious, we can contact you to verify it. We may refuse an unverified order. Such purchase order is then regarded as not submitted.

2.3.          When is the contract concluded?

The contract is concluded the moment you receive our acceptance of order. An acceptance of order will be sent to your e-mail address specified in the purchase order. Should the purchase order not be accepted, the contract shall be concluded the moment you pay the whole price or accept the goods ordered (whatever comes first). The acceptance of a purchase order may be part of information about the receipt of order according to Art. 2.2 of these Business Terms and Conditions (if explicitly mentioned in the confirmation) or it may follow this confirmation separately.

Information about specific technical steps leading to the conclusion of a contract is available on the website.

2.4.          Can you cancel a purchase order that has been sent?

You may cancel a purchase order that we have not accepted yet (i.e., you have not received an order acceptation from us yet according to Art. 2.3 of these Business Terms and Conditions) by phone or e-mail.  All purchase orders accepted by us shall be binding. Later cancellation of a purchase order is possible only upon agreement with us. If a purchase order for goods that do not allow for withdrawal from contract (more details in Art. 6) is cancelled like this, we are entitled to compensation for cost we incurred so far in connection with the contract.

2.5.          How is a price determined when we buy back your used part?

Prices of used parts shall be determined by their availability on the world markets. If the purchase is carried out as an exchange, the price of the used part is represented by a refundable deposit.

If you send us your used or damaged part before we send you an ordered part, the refundable deposit shall not be charged to you and you shall pay us only for the ordered part or service.

If you send us the used or damaged part only after the new one was sent to you, we will request payment of a refundable deposit whose amount shall be specified in the purchase order. The damaged or used part shall comply with specified conditions that enable its further repair for us to pay you back the refundable deposit. Assessment of repair options and evaluation of your used or damaged part shall be carried out in compliance with our Assortment Conditions. If the part you sent satisfies the conditions for deposit refund, the deposit shall be refunded to you within 14 days. 

If it is possible to repair the part you sent only with additional cost incurred (purchase of missing or damaged components), the additional cost shall be deducted from your refundable deposit. We will inform you about the amount of additional cost. More information regarding our refundable deposit clause is available in the "refundable deposit" section on our website.

If your part is damaged to the extent that the repair is impossible within the amount of refundable deposit, and the deposit was added to the price of a new or refurbished part, the deposit shall not be refunded. We will inform you about this fact.

If the part you sent is beyond repair, please note that if you leave the part with our company, we are going to conclude a Donation Agreement for this part, by which you are transferring this part to our ownership free of charge and we are accepting it to our ownership. If you want the unrepairable part back, we will send it to you upon request. If you do not request the part return within 1 month from the day we informed you about the impossibility of repair, we consider the donation agreement concluded. Cost associated with the part return shall be borne by you.

2.6.          Can the price displayed on the website change?

Prices of presented goods and prices for packaging, transportation, and delivery remain in effect so long they are displayed on the website. Possible discounts on goods may not be combined unless explicitly stated otherwise on the website.

Please note that we determine the price of repair based on a description of defect you give us.  If such description is not complete or does not reflect the actual condition, or if another defect is found during the repair, we reserve the right to change the specified price. We will immediately inform you about any possible price change. If you do not agree with the changed price, you are entitled to withdraw from the contract.

If there is an apparent technical error on our part in showing the goods price on the website or during ordering, we are not obligated to provide the goods or service to you for this apparently incorrect price, not even in case you got a purchase order acceptance according to these Business Terms and Conditions. In that case we reserve the right to withdraw from the contract.

If a price listed for goods on the website or during ordering is not current anymore, we are going to immediately inform you about this fact. If your purchase order has not been accepted yet, we are not obligated to conclude the contract.

A price that changed between sending the order and our acceptance of it according to Art. 2.3 of these Business Terms and Conditions shall not affect orders that had been sent.

2.7.          Can you get the contract in a paper form?

The contract is not concluded on paper with signatures of contracting parties. The contract is made up of these Business Terms and Conditions, your purchase order, and our acceptance of the purchase order. The whole contract shall be sent to you by e-mail or upon your request printed and sent by regular mail. When sending it by regular mail we may ask you to pay the associated cost.

2.8.          What if you do not understand something in the contract?

If you have a question about the Business Terms and Conditions or the contract, you can call us or e-mail us. We will be glad to provide you with all necessary information.

2.9.          In what languages can the contract be concluded?

The contract can be concluded in the Czech language unless the contracting parties explicitly agree on any other language.

We recommend that you send the notice of withdrawal from the contract to our delivery address REMANTE GROUP s.r.o., Na Starém břehu 2756/7, 746 01 Opava, or e-mail address info@remante.com. A template form may be used for withdrawal from the contract. We will acknowledge the receipt of your notice without undue delay.

You do not have to give any reasons for the withdrawal from contract.

Withdrawal from a contract shall cancel the contract from the very beginning and the contract is regarded as never having been concluded.

6.3.          When is it impossible to withdraw from a contract?

According to § 1837 Civil Code, it is not possible to withdraw, among others, from the following contracts:

-      for the provision of services if they were provided with your explicit consent before the period for withdrawal expired, about which you were informed;

-      for the delivery of goods that were custom-modified upon your request or personalized;

-      for the repair or maintenance performed upon your request at a place you designated.

6.4.        Special provisions regarding withdrawal from a contract beyond the framework of legal regulations

The Seller (or service provider) may in some cases and upon mutual agreement accommodate Buyer's proposition to withdraw from the contract beyond the framework of legal regulations, i.e., even if the 14-day period expired or if according to § 1837 Civil Code it was not possible to withdraw from the contract.

Considering the cost associated with goods modification, administration, transportation, acquisition of goods, and other acts, the Seller (or the service provider), in case of Buyer's proposition, reserves the right to propose a reasonable fee to the Buyer, which the Buyer undertakes to pay to the Seller if this service is accommodated. The amount of this fee is always established on an individual basis, considering each particular case.

This service, because it is beyond the framework of legal regulations and therefore a manifestation of Seller’s (service provider’s) good will, shall not be enforceable and the Seller (or service provider) thus reserves the right to refuse such proposition of the Buyer regarding withdrawal from the contract.

6.5.          How do you return the goods to us?

You are obligated to return the complete goods within 14 days from the contract withdrawal. The goods shall be sent to REMANTE GROUP s.r.o., Sadová 189/44, budova H, 746 01 Opava. Do not send the goods cash on delivery. We are not obligated to accept the goods sent cash on delivery.

The goods returned shall not be damaged, worn out, or dirty, and, if possible, it should come in original packaging.

We recommend that you attach the following with the goods returned:

-      a copy of consignment note and invoice, if these documents were issued, or other document proving the purchase of goods;

-      a written notice of withdrawal from the contract (on our form or in another way) and selected method of refund (bank transfer to your account, personal pick up or money order or other). Include in the notice your mailing address, phone number and e-mail address.

Failure to attach any of the documents mentioned above shall not prevent acceptance of your withdrawal from the contract according to legal regulations.

6.6.          What if the goods returned are damaged?

When mailing, package the goods properly to prevent their damage or destruction. There are no refunds for the price of goods (or its part corresponding to the extent of damage) seriously damaged or destroyed during transportation due to improper packaging, or reimbursement of delivery cost.

If we find out that the goods you are returning are damaged, worn out, dirty, or partially worn out, we are entitled to compensation for damage from you. We may unilaterally offset the compensation for damage against your claim for refund and reimbursement of transportation cost, i.e., you will only be refunded the amount minus the damages.

6.7.          What if a part of repair was performed on the equipment?

If we provided part of the services at the time of your withdrawal from the contract, we are entitled to payment for a proportional part of repair that corresponds to the extent of repair performed.

6.8.          When will you get your money back?

All money received shall be returned to you within 14 days from the withdrawal from contract. Please note that we are not obligated to return the money to you before you return the goods to us or before you prove that you sent the goods to us.

Beside the price refund, you are also entitled to reimbursement of cost of delivery to your place. However, if you chose other than the cheapest means of goods delivery that we offer, we are going to reimburse you for goods delivery in the amount corresponding to the cheapest means offered.

We will return your money:

-      in the same way we received it, or

-      in a way that you request;

In addition to the options mentioned above, we can always return the money to you also by sending it to you bank account or bank account from which the payment of price was made (if you don’t give us any other account number within ten days from the withdrawal from contract). By accepting these Business Terms and Conditions, you voice consent to sending the money according to the previous sentence on condition that no additional cost arises from that.

You shall bear the cost associated with sending the goods returned to our address even if the goods, because of their character, cannot be returned by usual mailing way.

6.9.          When can we withdraw from a contract?

We reserve the right to withdraw from a contract in the following cases:

-      due to a technical error there was an apparently wrong price of goods published on the website (Article 2.5 of these Business Terms and Conditions);

-      for objective reasons (above all because the goods are not manufactured any more, the supplier cut the supplies to the Czech Republic, etc.) the goods are impossible to deliver under the original conditions;

-      fulfilment becomes objectively impossible or illegal.

If any of the above happens, we are going to inform you about our withdrawal from the contract immediately. The withdrawal shall take effect the moment the notice of withdrawal is delivered to you.

If you paid the price in full or partially, we are going to return the money received by non-cash transfer to the account that you inform us about or to the account from which your payment was made. We are going to return the money within five days from the withdrawal from contract.
