The customer has the possibility at any time up to the dispatch of his order desire to see the data indicated in the context of the order for the purpose of the control, to correct or completely abort. The order request can then be sent to the seller via the "Buy now" button.
(5) The seller confirms the receipt of your order immediately by email (confirmation of receipt) after sending the order. This automatic acknowledgement of receipt merely confirms that your order has been received by the paperbag and does not constitute acceptance of your application.
The seller then confirms the conclusion of the contract again by separate e-mail (order confirmation), whereby a legally valid contract is concluded between the customer and the seller.
The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.
(6) The nature, characteristics and quality of the delivered goods are determined by the quality specifications in the respective product descriptions, which can be called up on the Seller's website www.thepaperbag.de .
§ 3 Non-availability of the goods
The availability of the products is always indicated in the product description. Should a product ordered by you on paperbag.de still not be available at short notice at the time of placing the order, the seller will inform the customer immediately about the unavailability and the time of the expected availability.
If a product is permanently unavailable, the seller does not accept the order. In this case no contract will be concluded.
Payments already made by the customer will of course be refunded immediately in such a case.
In the case of other obstacles to delivery or circumstances which would prevent the fulfilment of the contract, the seller shall also inform the customer by e-mail.

(2) In the case of foreign bank transfers, the customer shall bear the third-party fees (transfer fees).

(5) The shipping costs are to be borne by the customer and are currently maintained under the menu item ''Delivery and Payment Conditions'' and are available there at any time.

It is the customer's responsibility to effect his payment in time so that it is received by the seller within the period. The seller reserves the right to withdraw from the purchase contract and sell the goods elsewhere if payment has not been received by the end of the period. Any payment received from the customer after withdrawal will be refunded to the customer.
If payment is made by means of a payment method offered by PayPal, the payment shall be processed by the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter referred to as "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, which can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the Customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the Terms of Payment without a PayPal account, which can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full.

§ 5 Dispatch and delivery periods
(1) The seller ships goods that are in stock within 1-4 working days from receipt of payment. The seller ships with UPS, DHL, DPD and Hermes. The commodity is within Germany 1-4 days on the way.
