Acr Auctions will be responsible for the collection of the sales price until the expiry of contract terms of payment.
In contracts with consumers, we retain the title to goods until full payment of the purchase price has been made. In contracts with companies, we retain the title to goods until all claims from an ongoing business relationship have been satisfied.
As long as the purchase price has not been paid in full, the customer is obliged:

b) to notify us immediately if a third party has placed a claim, such as a lien, on the goods, or if the goods have suffered damage or demise and/or;

An entrepreneur has the right to sell the goods to a third party in the course of normal business. In doing so, he already assigns to us all receivables vis-à-vis third parties that accrue to him by reselling the goods in the amount of the invoiced value. We already accept this assignment. Subsequent to assignment, the company is entitled to collect the receivables. We do, however, reserve the right to collect the receivables ourselves, if the company does not duly fulfill its payment obligations and falls into default.

8- Liability for Defects
Should the articles delivered prove to have obvious defects, whereby this also includes shipping damage, you are obliged to file a claim for such defects without delay. If you are a consumer, the failure to give notice of defect, however, shall not have any consequences on your legal rights.
There may exist multiple copies of individual pieces. Not all pieces can be illustrated or listed in a catalogue or on the website. The delivery of a piece not illustrated in the catalogue does not constitute a defect, unless you have expressly stated in your order that you wish to receive exactly the piece illustrated and described.
The authenticity of all goods offered is guaranteed. The buyer is entitled to all the warranties required by law.
As regards warranty, the consumer has the choice of exercising his right of removal of defects or delivery of merchandise free of defects (supplementary performance). To the extent that the method of supplementary performance is considered to entail disproportionate costs, the entitlement shall be limited to the remaining options for supplementary performance. Additional rights, in particular the rescission of the purchase contract, can only be exercised after an adequate period of time has passed, allowing for supplementary performance or two unsuccessful attempts of supplementary performance or if ACR Auctions have refused supplementary performance.
If the seller is an entrepreneur, we are entitled to choose to either remove defects or deliver merchandise free of defects within one year after date of delivery pursuant to § 439 BGB. After a year has passed after the date of delivery, the warranty claims of a business entity are limited to the removal of defects or the provision of a credit of the current cash value, whichever we deem appropriate.

This shall not affect liability regardless of negligence or fault according to the Product Liability Act. Nor shall it affect liability for gross breach of contract; to this degree, liability is limited to damages that are foreseeable and typical for this type of contract, except for the cases referred to in the first two sentences.
