Widerrufsrecht f�r Verbraucher: Sie k�nnen Ihre Vertragserkl�rung innerhalb von einem Monat ohne Angabe von Gr�nden in Textform (z. B. Brief, E-mail) oder - wenn Ihnen die Sache vor Fristablauf �berlassen wird - durch R�cksendung der Sache wiederrufen. Die Frist beginnt nach Erhalt dieser Belehrung in Textform, jedoch nicht vor Eingang der Ware beim Empf�nger (bei der wiederkehrenden Lieferung gleichartiger Waren nicht vor Eingang der ersten Teillieferung) und auch nicht vor Erf�llung unserer Informationspflichten gem�� 312c Abs. 2 BGB in Verbindung mit � 1 Abs. 1,2 und 4 BGB-InfoV sowie unserer Pflichten gem�� 312e Abs. 1 Satz 1 BGB in Verbindung mit � 3 BGB-InfoV.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION

Statutory Right to cancel

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Thomas Emig (privat), Altlandsberger Buchhandlung & Antiquariat, Waldweg 21, 15345, Altlandsberg, Germany, +49 0171-1206975, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
