3) Prices, Order Process and Terms of Payment

GTC GittaGsArt

3.1 Value Added Tax:

 

The product prices stated by GittaGsArt at the conclusion of the contract are total prices excluding statutory VAT in accordance with § 19 UStG small business status.

 

 

3.2 Prices and shipping costs:

 

The total amount shown in each case at the time of the binding conclusion of the contract shall apply.

 

Shipping costs are usually not charged to the customer, unless the customer wants a faster shipping method than standard delivery (see also 5.2 of the GTC). 

In this case, the following applies: Any additional delivery and shipping costs (such as express shipping) are shown separately during the ordering process, but are included in the total price for the customer. These extra costs are not refundable in the event of a return or revocation after the goods are in the manufacturing process.

 

The price lists shown on the website GittaGsArt are non-binding and serve exclusively for a better orientation and idea about possible price offers for different medium types, extra costs and different formats as well as image sizes. These prices refer to normally detailed drawn or painted portraits with simple, non-detailed backgrounds or portrait photo collages, as well as their art print copies or digital files.

 

 

3.3 Currency:

 

All prices are shown and payable in Euros. Additional exchange rate fees (see 3.4 of the GTC) may apply for the customer.

 

 

3.4 Additional costs:

 

For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases. These include, for example, customs duties and import taxes or costs for the transfer of funds by credit institutions (such as transfer fees and exchange rate fees).

These costs are not the responsibility of the seller and are to be borne by the customer. 

 

Additional costs related to money transmission may also be incurred if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

Furthermore, GittaGsArt is not responsible for delays caused by customs.

 

 

3.5 Terms of payment and ordering process:

 

Sales are made against advance payment by bank transfer/online banking (if possible) or PayPal. In the latter case, the customer also has the option to pay by credit or debit card. There may be transfer fees and exchange rate fees. (see also 3.4 of the GTC)

 

Generally, for custom artwork, an agreed upon deposit of 50% of the total price is required before the artist begins work. The deposit is part of the binding offer (see 2.3 of the GTC).

For repeat orders of art print copies of a previously purchased original, payment is due in full immediately upon conclusion of the contract. Please note that art print copies can only be purchased by buying the corresponding original.

 

After the artist has completed the artwork, the customer will receive a view of the product in appropriate digital form via email for review. Minor change requests can be accommodated. 

Customer satisfaction is very important to GittaGsArt. The seller tries to meet the customer's satisfaction to the best of his ability and with the means at his disposal (see 6.1 of the GTC).

 

After completion of the artwork and from the announcement of completion, the remaining payment is due immediately, but no later than 14 calendar days. After this period, the customer is in default of acceptance, so there is a transfer of risk to the customer.

 

After receipt of payment by the seller, the original artwork will be sent within 1-3 business days and art prints within 2-7 business days to the address specified at the conclusion of the contract, digital files will be sent immediately to the e-mail address specified by the customer (see 5.2 of the GTC).

 

 

3.6 Due date of payment:

 

The sale is made against advance payment.

Since the seller will not start the production without an agreed deposit, nor send the finished product to the customer without final payment, it is recommended to pay immediately after the conclusion of the contract and/or completion of the product.

In the case of custom art print copies, the total price is due in full immediately after the conclusion of the contract.

 

 

3.7 Default of payment:

 

The customer shall be in default of payment at the latest after the expiry of 14 calendar days in each case for down payment and final payment. The same applies to the total price to be paid in full (such as in the case of art print copies) before the start of production of the product.

 

GittaGsArt is entitled to charge default interest in the amount of 5 percentage points above the base interest rate p.a. announced by the Deutsche Bundesbank for the time of the order. If it can be proven that the seller has incurred higher damages due to default, GittaGsArt is entitled to assert this claim.

 

 

3.8 Right of retention:

 

The customer is only authorized to exercise a right of retention insofar as his counterclaim is based on the same contractual relationship.

 

 

3.9 Retention of title:

The delivered goods shall remain the property of GittaGsArt until all claims against the customer arising from the purchase contract have been settled in full. As long as this retention of title exists, the customer may neither resell nor dispose of the goods; in particular, the customer may not contractually grant third parties any use of the goods.
