The application of the Client's General Terms and Conditions is excluded.
1.2. By accepting the Vendor's offer, the Client confirms that he/she is familiar with the contents of the General Terms and agrees to their application. These General Terms become an integral part of the contract between the Vendor and the Client (hereinafter: The Contract, the Purchase Contract). If the accepted written offer or individual Contract entered into with the Client differs from the General Terms, the provisions of the individual Contract apply.

ORDERING SERVICES AND PRODUCTS
Article 2
2.1. The Client's inquiry or order must contain basic information about the Client, a description of the desired service and/or product, as well as the required quantity and an approximate or fixed delivery time.
Based on the information provided, the Vendor drafts an initial offer, which can, as necessary, and as communicated with the Client, be adapted under the Client's requirements, after which the Vendor issues a final offer indicating all the main components of the Contract, such as quantity, price, payment terms, delivery dates (and installation, if it is a subject of the offer) and indicating the validity period of the offer.
The validity period of the Vendor's offer may only be extended in writing or electronically.
2.2. For spoken orders, the Client will be sent an email to confirm the order, which the Client must confirm. All rights and obligations related to the relationship between the Vendor and the Client start at the moment of receiving the final offer sent by the Vendor in written communication (e-mail, fax, in person) or by the Client's implicit or tacit consent (including, but not limited to, paying the initial fee specified in the order), and it is considered that, at this moment, the contract between the Client and the Vendor is concluded (hereinafter: the Contract) in respect of the ordered goods and/or services (hereinafter: Subject of the Contract).
2.3. The Client is obliged to provide the Vendor with the exact dimensions of the space for which the furniture and equipment are designed and/or manufactured. If necessary, and if agreed upon, the Client is obliged to provide the Vendor with access to the space to be furnished, for the purpose of taking the exact measurements of the space. The cost of the measuring service is the Client's responsibility unless agreed otherwise in writing. The Vendor is only responsible for the measurement if they have personally performed it and did so in a prepared space where subsequent work, which would affect the size of the space, has not been performed.
2.4. If the Client cancels the order after confirming the Vendor's final offer, this shall be considered as termination of the Contract, and the provisions of Article 8.2 of these General Terms shall apply. The Client does not have the right to cancel the order after the Vendor has informed them that the Subject of the Contract has been manufactured and is ready for delivery.

PRICE
Article 3

3.1. The prices shown in the price list represent the net prices of the products and do not include any additional costs, works, or services, including, but not limited to, packaging, transportation, unloading, installation, insurance, etc.
3.2. Value-added tax is calculated in accordance with the current Value Added Tax Act of the Republic of Croatia.

3.4.  Depending on the agreement, the price, except for the goods or services that are the subject of the transaction, may include packaging, transportation, insurance, installation, and/or measuring, which must be specified in the offer/Contract and the invoice. If, after accepting the final offer, the Client makes new requirements or changes the original specification on which the final offer was based, that is, if circumstances change without the Vendor's influence, the Vendor will create a new offer or modify the existing offer.
3.5. The Client's payment terms and dynamics are determined separately for each contracted business.
3.6. Failure to comply with the agreed payment dynamics by the Client entitles the Vendor to terminate the Purchase Contract and act in accordance with Article 8.1. of these General Terms.
3.7. The Vendor retains full property rights over the delivered goods until these goods have been paid for in full. Despite the observance of property rights, the risk of accidental collapse or damage to the goods is borne by the Client from the moment the goods were transferred to them. Any possible expenses related to the observance of the Vendor's property rights (including, but not limited to, procedural compensation in legal matters against the Client or third parties, transportation costs, etc.), shall be borne by the Client. In case of non-payment of the purchase price, the Vendor has the right to choose between the following:
- demand repayment of debt with legal interest, or
- subsequently, at any time, demand that the Client return the goods that are the property of the Vendor.
By receiving the goods that are the property of the Vendor, the Client is not exempt from liability for damages and expenses to the Vendor in accordance with these General Terms. The Client is obligated to keep the Vendor's assets safe from any destruction, deterioration in value, or loss, by observing good business practices. If any third party attempts to establish or exercise any of its rights to the Vendor's property, the Client is obliged to do everything to prevent this and notify the Vendor without delay.

DELIVERY
Article 4
4.1
 Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the delivery period for goods or services begins on the first business day following the acceptance of the final offer.
