General Terms and Conditions of Sale [GTC]
1.Validity
The deliveries, services and offers of our company take place exclusively on the basis of these terms and conditions, regardless of the type of legal transaction. All of our declarations of intent under private law are to be understood on the basis of these terms and conditions. We do not recognize any terms and conditions of the customer that contradict or deviate from our terms and conditions, unless we have expressly agreed to their validity in writing. Contract fulfillment actions on our part do not count as consent to contractual conditions that deviate from our terms and conditions. These terms and conditions also apply as a framework agreement for all further legal transactions between the contracting parties.
2.Conclusion of a contract
The presentation of the products in the online shop is not a legally binding offer, but a non-binding online catalog. By clicking the button “Send order” you place a binding order for the goods in the shopping cart. The confirmation of receipt of the order follows immediately after the order has been sent. We can accept your order by sending an order confirmation by email or by delivering the goods within five days.
3.Prices
Unless otherwise stated, the prices are given in EURO. The prices for the US store are quoted in USD. The exact sales tax due (if any) will be calculated at checkout based on the delivery address. The customer is solely responsible for any locally applicable duties or taxes.

Payment must be made either in advance by credit card or PayPal through our portal. We only deliver the goods after receipt of payment and availability of the goods.
5.Delivery, dispatch, transport
Our sales prices do not include shipping, assembly or installation costs, unless otherwise stated. The shipping costs are calculated before receipt of payment and depend on the location and product.
6.14-day money-back guarantee / right of withdrawal (only for consumers / private customers in the E.U. / Switzerland)
We grant you a right of withdrawal for the products that you have bought from us. Individual custom-made products are excluded from revocation. Please send us your revocation in writing by email or letter within 14 days of receipt of the goods.
The time at which the cancellation is sent is decisive for compliance with the deadline. The exercise of the right of withdrawal does not require any justification.
The revocation must be sent to:
In the Garage A.G., Zumikerstrasse 24, Zollikon 8702 Switzerland, Info@inthegarage.com
Exercising the right of withdrawal leads to the conversion of the purchase contract into a reverse transaction, according to which the services received under the purchase contract must be reimbursed. Goods received must be returned no later than 14 days after the declaration of revocation. We will also reimburse you for payments received within 14 days of the declaration of revocation. However, we can refuse the repayment until we have received the goods back or until you have provided evidence that you have sent the goods back, whichever is earlier. In the event of a cancellation, please return the goods to us immediately with the original packaging. You have to bear the costs for the return. We will refund the purchase price to you immediately upon receipt of the goods. We reserve the right to deduct compensation for possible damage or excessive wear and tear from the purchase price to be reimbursed if any loss in value is due to handling of the goods that was not necessary to determine the type, quality and functionality of the goods.
