Article 2 Orders and Contracts

  1. The presentation of Products in the Online Shop by the Seller does not constitute an offer to sell such Products within the meaning of the Polish Civil Code of 23 April 1964 (henceforth the “CC”), but rather an invitation for a Customer to place an offer, in the form of an Order and in accordance with the further provisions in this Article, to buy the Products included in the Order.
  2. In order for a Customer to place an Order:
    1. if it is the Customer’s first Order in the Online Shop, the Seller must register the Customer in the IT system based on the Customer’s submission (henceforth the “Registration”) and provide the Customer with the necessary login details for the individual account set up for the Customer as a result of the Registration (henceforth the “Account”);
      or
      if the Customer already has an account, the Customer must log into the Account;
    2. the Product selected must be added to a virtual cart (henceforth the “Shopping Cart”);
    3. an order form (henceforth the “Order Form”) must be filled in by completing at least the required fields;
    4. the Order Form must be confirmed and sent to the Seller in the way specified on the Online Shop website.
  3. The confirmation of the Order Form and its sending to the Seller as provided for in clause (2)(d) above is tantamount to confirming that the Customer has read and accepted the Online Shop T&Cs and the GTCS, and it is tantamount to the Customer placing a binding offer with the Seller to buy the Products added to the Shopping Cart and included in the Order Form (henceforth the “Offer to Buy”).
  4. The delivery of the Offer to Buy the Products referred to in clause (3) above to the Seller is acknowledged with an automatically generated email sent to the Customer’s email address as indicated in the Order Form. The acknowledgement referred to in the preceding sentence is only an acknowledgement that the Offer to Buy has been delivered to the Seller and it is in no way an acceptance of the said Offer to Buy by the Seller yet.
  5. The Offer to Buy placed by the Customer is accepted by the Seller by means of an “Order Confirmation” that is generated by Seller’s SAP Goods sales system and sent to Customer’s email address indicated by the Customer in the Order Form. The application of Article 682 of the Civil Code (tacit acceptance of an offer) and Article 69 of the Civil Code (implied acceptance of an offer) is hereby excluded with respect to Offers to Buy. Please note that e-mail correspondence sent to the Customer before the Customer has received the “Order Confirmation” does not constitute Seller’s statement of will confirming Seller’s acceptance of the Offer to Buy as it is used for technical purposes only, i.e. in particular for the assignment of an Order number and reference number and the compilation of an Order summary.
  6. Once the Customer has been delivered the “Order Confirmation”, the Contract is formed between the Customer and the Seller in respect of the Products involved in the Offer to Buy.

Article 3 Sales Price and additional costs

1. The sales price shown for each Product (henceforth the “Price”) on the Shop site is expressed in Polish zloty (PLN) for 1 T of the Product and it is shown net of value-added tax and does not include any costs resulting from the delivery option and delivery address selected by the Customer (henceforth “Additional costs”) which will be calculated and added in the next steps of the order process, depending on the quantity purchased, delivery address and delivery option.

2. Value-added tax will be added to each Price in accordance with the applicable laws.

3. When calculating and invoicing the sale of Products, the Price referred to in paragraph 1 above, i.e. the per ton price rather than the per pallet price, is binding for the Customer and for the Seller. The per pallet price is generated in the SAP system used by the Seller to support sales in the Online shop only for Seller’s internal purposes.
