The buyer can order goods and enter into the contract in person in a customer centre, via a telephone, email or through the online store. The buyer can edit or change all orders placed within the online store at will before submitting them, through their profile on the website of the seller.
The contract is concluded when the buyer places the order and the seller accepts it. The order is considered accepted either by handing over an order confirmation in the customer centre or by the sending of an order confirmation, which is sent immediately by the seller to the e-mail address of the buyer and is simultaneously stored in the database of the seller.

The contract is archived and is available to the buyer when asked for or it is available in the profile of the buyer when ordering via the seller’s website.
In a case of a change in an order, that has already been confirmed by the seller, the changed order is binding for both parties when the confirmation of the change is confirmed by the seller. The seller does not have to accept the change of the order in a situation when the goods have already been transferred for transport, or have already been altered to suit the needs of the buyer or when they are custom made for the buyer.
The buyer is obliged to enclose any necessary details needed for the fulfilment of the order (like the means of delivery, the buyer’s information according to his ID or to a statement from a public register, mailing address, billing information).
To do business or to close purchase agreements by the means of distance communication is allowed only for individuals, which are eligible for these legal acts. Minors are allowed to enclose purchase agreements only in the scope of their eligibility. A purchase agreement of a higher value can only be enclosed for the minor by their legal representative. The costs for usage of distance communications (phone, internet etc.) for order completion are above normal and depend on the telephone or data tariff used by the buyer. The seller reserves the right to address customers in marketing surveys.
By submitting an order, the buyer confirms that he is familiar with these Terms and Conditions, including warranty conditions, and that they agree with them. These business terms and regulations are visibly placed on the seller’s web www.igm.cz and on its language varieties. These conditions are an integral part of the contract.
The seller reserves the right to refuse an order or its parts before closing a purchase agreement in these situations: depletion of inventory, the goods are no longer being made or delivered or the buyer’s payment is delayed. In a case, the buyer has already paid a part of the price or the full price for the product, this amount will be transferred back to his account or address. Gifts that are completely free of charge, are not subject to the purchase agreement.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the prices of the offered goods are stated without the value-added tax, with the value-added tax and do not include the packaging costs, insurance or delivery by the carrier of your choice.
When ordering via the website, the price in the time of the order is the valid price. When ordering via telephone, the price listed by the operator is the valid price. In case of doubt, the price on the website is in accordance with the current offer.
The seller reserves the right to categorize the buyers, who register with the seller as registered customers. These buyers purchase selected items for special prices after signing in with their e-mail address and password.
The seller reserves the right to change prices on the website or in a catalogue without notice at any time. If a purchase agreement has already been concluded, the buyer will be informed about the change via a one-sided written notice. If the buyer does not agree with the price increase, they are entitled to withdraw from the contract.
Unless stated otherwise, all offers are valid for two weeks from release or until stocks last. For orders at a later date and/or repeat orders the buyer cannot ask for previously listed prices.
Goods in stock are reserved and prepared for delivery to the buyer, or to be picked up in person, within 1-5 days after the order is confirmed. Goods that are not in stock are listed with a presumed date of delivery. In case the delivery date is unknown at the time of the order confirmation, it is assumed the goods will be delivered within 4 weeks at the latest.
The delivery date listed in the offer or contract is purely informative and the seller is not responsible for any damages that may arise in an event of a delayed delivery to the estimated delivery date.
The Means of delivery depend on the buyer as they choose the means of delivery when placing an order. If the means of delivery are not stated by the buyer, the seller picks the suitable means of delivery themselves. The goods, depending on their nature can be delivered by parcel or pallet delivery service to the buyer, or the buyer can simply pick up the goods personally in one of the seller’s customer centres. The current prices for delivery by parcel or pallet transport services are listed in the section About Purchase / “Delivery“ on the website of the seller.
If the buyer decides to pick up the goods personally, they can ask for the goods to be demonstrated. The acceptance of goods personally in a Customer centre must be confirmed in writing at all times, as well as it has to be stated whether the goods were demonstrated to the buyer or not.
The shipment by goods delivery services is carried out only on weekdays. In the case of an order being placed on Saturday, Sunday, or a state holiday, the goods will be sent the first following working day. The goods delivered by a delivery service are always securely packaged in a way that prevents any damage to the goods, also the packaging used does not necessarily have to correspond with the goods delivered. Goods supplied are always identified by a label on the side, which informs the buyer of the seller as a sender.
The buyer is entitled to refuse to accept the delivered goods which are clearly damaged or have corrupted packaging in a way that it raises a reasonable belief that the goods have been damaged (also applies to cases when it is visible that the package has been exposed to weather or water). If the buyer still wants to accept the goods, because not always does appearance of the package has to have an impact on the goods inside, he can do so but has to draw up a protocol of shipment damage or has to document the defect appropriately. If the buyer should, after delivery and unpacking, find out about damage caused by transport, then it is necessary to notify the seller without delay (the consumer buyer within 24 hours, the consumer buyer preferably within 24 hours, or three working days at latest), the seller will then inform the buyer about the next steps and a settlement of claim with the carrier.
If the buyer fails to take over the goods on time or refuses to accept the goods and when the buyer expressly or silently refuses to accept the goods after setting an additional time of acceptance for other than legitimate reasons, the seller can withdraw from the contract and claim damages. The same applies to a delayed settlement of the final amount that was agreed upon. The right of ownership to the packaging passes to the buyer immediately upon delivery and acceptance of the goods and with it all the obligations set by the law concerning packaging.
To prevent any problems associated with later complaints about the state of delivered goods, we recommend inspecting the goods immediately or as soon as possible after the takeover, but no later than 24 hours, except when goods were demonstrated in the customer centre and to present and inform of any potential damages to the goods in the customer centre within 24 hours from receiving the goods. The seller has a responsibility towards the consumer that the goods are, at the moment of acceptance, in accordance with the contract.
The delivery of goods is completed when dispatched towards the consumer buyer, i.e.it is completed at the moment, the goods are handed over from the seller to the first carrier for transportation to the consumer buyer (the moment of delivery). When sending goods via a delivery service to the consumer buyer, the goods are delivered with its acceptance from the carrier. In those cases, when the seller chooses to transport the goods at their own expense, the delivery is completed at the moment of its acceptance by the buyer in their agreed destination. In case of personal takeover of the goods, the goods are considered delivered, when they’re available for the buyer in the seller’s customer centre. If a deadline for acceptance is set, the delivery is carried out on the last day of the agreed deadline, if not taken by the buyer earlier.
The delivery of goods is completed upon the takeover by the buyer. In case of a takeover of the goods in person, the goods are considered delivered when the buyer is able to handle them on the premises of the seller. The same applies for a pick up of goods by the buyer’s delivery service. The buyer will provide information about the delivery service to the seller.
Risk of damage to the goods and any related third-party liability is transferred to the buyer at the moment of delivery completion.
The buyer acquires ownership of the goods upon full payment of the purchase price or at the moment of delivery of the goods (at the moment, which occurs later). If the goods are still owned by the seller and the buyer fails to fulfil the agreement, then the seller can re-take possession of the goods. Until the ownership is transferred to the buyer, the buyer is obliged to take care of the goods that have been delivered to them on their own expense, as if they were the storage handlers and are not allowed to manipulate with it in any way nor are they allowed to use it or to interfere with it. The same applies to a situation when the seller for any reason whatsoever becomes an owner of the buyer’s goods.
The Purchase price for delivered goods may be paid as preferred by the buyer, either in cash or with a credit card when taking over the goods in the customer centre of the seller, or with cash on delivery or with a credit card (may differ by country) when the goods are delivered by a courier service, or a bank transfer in advance on the basis of a pro-forma invoice, issued by the seller upon a request from the buyer. Other payment terms can be agreed upon individually and only in a written form.

In case of settlement of the obligation by the legal way, an administrative fee of 192 € excl.VAT (230 € incl.VAT) will be charged.
If the buyer orders custom made goods or a nonstandard quantity of goods (different for each product according to its nature) or goods that the seller does not have in stock, the seller can ask the buyer for a deposit payment at an agreed amount, even though the seller’s website made it possible for the buyer to pay on delivery or by a credit card. In that case, the buyer has the right to rescind the contract.

The buyer must immediately inspect and check the goods without unnecessary delay and, in writing, claim for any defects in detail to the seller of goods and must also stop using the goods.
If the buyer doesn’t notify the seller in time, they will lose the right to withdraw from the contract.
The buyer will notify the seller of his chosen right when notifying of a defect or without delay after notifying of the defect. The seller is however entitled to refuse the chosen type of reimbursement, only if it presents the seller with unreasonable costs and or a different kind of reimbursement is available without substantial harm to the buyer. The consumer-buyer cannot change the chosen reimbursement without the agreement of the seller; this does not apply a situation when a buyer is requesting a repair of a malfunction, that cannot be repaired. If the seller fails to repair the malfunctions in a reasonable period or should he inform the buyer that they will not repair the malfunction, the buyer is then eligible to ask for a reasonable discount from the purchasing price instead of the repair, or they can withdraw from the contract. Upon delivery of a new item, the buyer will return the previous item on their own expense to the seller.
Should the consumer buyer apply the right of faulty performance, the seller will confirm this in a written form, there will be stated: the date of the application, as well as the duration of the repair and the details of it.
The buyer has to provide the seller with reasonable time to repair any malfunctions; otherwise claims for any defects expire. If it’s not possible, within the period for malfunction removal, set reasonably in all circumstances, to produce any kind of remedy, the buyer can withdraw from the contract or can ask for a discount of the Purchase price. The buyer is not allowed to withdraw from the contract, in a case of only minor defects.
