For you this means that also you commit yourselves irrevocablly the ersteigerte commodity to the auction price here required from you to decrease! The return, transformation or conversion of ersteigerter articles are impossible. The new your-genuinly plans a one year's guarantee/warranty also with gebrauchtwaren. This may not be for a dealer portable or attached, however under any circumstances for a private salesman. The consequence from this regulation meanwhile often stands in no reasonable relation to the obtained purchase price. Consider please the following terms of sale: Please you place their questions before delivery of a requirement!!! The article is ist" "so as it; with customs traces of private sells, that means: with the delivery of a requirement, you explain yourselves expressly in agreement to do without you after new your-genuinly legally which is entitled the guarantee/warranty with gebrauchtwaren completely. The articles are offered to any adhesion and guarantee under exclusion. Do not offer, if you do not agree with these rules
