3. CONCLUSION OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACT
3.1. Any presentation of goods placed in the web interface of the store is of an informative nature and the Seller is not obliged to conclude a Purchase Contract regarding such goods.
3.2. The web interface of the store contains information about goods, including the prices of individual goods. Prices are stated including VAT and all related charges, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Prices remain valid as long as they are displayed in the web interface of the store. This does not limit the Seller’s ability to conclude a Purchase Contract under individually agreed conditions.
3.3. The web interface of the store also contains information about costs associated with packaging and delivery of goods. Information on packaging and delivery costs shown in the web interface applies primarily to deliveries within the Czech Republic; for international deliveries, the applicable delivery costs are displayed at checkout according to the selected destination.
3.4. To order goods, the Buyer fills in an order form in the web interface of the store. The order form contains in particular information about:

3.4.3. information on costs associated with delivery of the goods (together the “Order”).
3.5. Before submitting the Order to the Seller, the Buyer is allowed to check and change the data entered in the Order, including the possibility to detect and correct errors made when entering data. The Buyer submits the Order by clicking the “SUBMIT ORDER” button. The data stated in the Order is considered correct by the Seller.
3.6. Submitting the Order is considered an act by which the Buyer unequivocally identifies the ordered goods, the purchase price, the Buyer, the payment method and constitutes a binding proposal to conclude a Purchase Contract. The validity of the Order is conditional upon completing all mandatory fields, familiarising oneself with these Terms, and confirming such familiarisation.
3.7. The Seller shall confirm receipt of the Order to the Buyer without undue delay by email to the Buyer’s email address stated in the User Account or in the Order (the “Buyer’s Email Address”).

3.9. The proposal to conclude a Purchase Contract in the form of an Order is valid for fifteen (15) days.
3.10. The contractual relationship between the Seller and the Buyer arises upon delivery of the acceptance of the Order (acceptance), which is sent by the Seller to the Buyer via email to the Buyer’s Email Address.
3.11. If the Seller cannot meet any of the requirements stated in the Order, the Seller shall send the Buyer a modified offer to the Buyer’s Email Address, stating possible variants, and shall request the Buyer’s position.
3.12. A modified offer is considered a new proposal to conclude a Purchase Contract, and in such case the Purchase Contract is concluded upon the Buyer’s acceptance via email.
3.13. The Buyer agrees to the use of means of distance communication when concluding the Purchase Contract. Costs incurred by the Buyer when using means of distance communication (internet connection, telephone calls) are borne by the Buyer and do not differ from the basic rate.

5.1. The Buyer acknowledges that the right to withdraw does not apply, in particular, to contracts for:
5.1.1. goods whose price depends on fluctuations in the financial market beyond the Seller’s control,
5.1.2. goods made to the Buyer’s specifications or clearly personalised,
5.1.3. goods in sealed packaging which the Buyer has unsealed and which cannot be returned for hygiene reasons,
5.1.4. digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, if the performance has begun with the Buyer’s prior express consent and acknowledgment that they lose the right of withdrawal.

5.3. The Buyer may use the model withdrawal form provided by the Seller (annex to these Terms). For delivery of the withdrawal notice, Article 11 applies.
5.4. If the Buyer withdraws under Article 5.2, the Purchase Contract is cancelled from the beginning. The Buyer must return the goods within fourteen (14) days from withdrawal. The Buyer bears the direct cost of returning the goods, including cases where the goods cannot be returned by regular mail due to their nature.
5.5. Upon withdrawal, the Seller shall refund all payments received from the Buyer, including delivery costs corresponding to the cheapest offered delivery method, within fourteen (14) days from withdrawal, but not earlier than after the Seller receives the returned goods or the Buyer proves dispatch of the goods.
5.6. The returned goods must be returned in the condition in which the Buyer received them, taking into account handling necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods. “Trying on” means only handling comparable to a brick-and-mortar shop (e.g. putting the skates on and briefly checking size and comfort in a clean indoor environment). For inline skates, riding indoors or outdoors, use on asphalt/concrete/sport surfaces/obstacles or similar use is not considered “trying on”.
If the Buyer uses (not only tries on), damages, soils, devalues, or returns incomplete goods, the Buyer is liable for the diminished value of the goods. The amount of diminished value is determined by the Seller individually according to the extent of wear/damage, taking into account the possibility of resale, necessity of replacing parts or service. The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer does not determine the amount of diminished value. The Seller is entitled to set off the claim for diminished value against the Buyer’s right to a refund.
5.7. Until the Buyer takes delivery of the goods, the Seller is entitled to withdraw from the Purchase Contract at any time. In such case, the Seller shall refund the purchase price to the Buyer without undue delay by bank transfer to the account designated by the Buyer.
5.8. If a gift is provided together with the goods, a gift agreement is concluded subject to the resolutory condition that if the Buyer withdraws from the Purchase Contract, the gift agreement becomes ineffective and the Buyer must return the gift together with the goods.
6. TRANSPORTATION AND DELIVERY
6.1. If the method of transport is agreed on the basis of a special request by the Buyer, the Buyer bears the risk and any additional costs associated with that method.
