If you wish to purchase goods from us, the purchase contract is concluded when we issue the written order confirmation to you, deliver / hand over the goods or send you the invoice, whichever comes first.

The order confirmation lists the goods sold, their quantity, the individual prices, the total price and - if applicable - the shipping costs.

A binding offer to us is only made when you have entered all the data required for the execution of the contract, confirmed that you have read the KPM General Terms and Conditions and clicked the "order subject to payment" button. Until you click this button, you can change your order and the data provided for your order at any time. We accept your order by sending an order confirmation e-mail.
