A valid purchase price is one which is currently displayed on our website, in our current price list or brochure.  Prices include Austrian VAT but exclude shipping costs, packaging, import duties, etc. If, owing to price changes by our suppliers, changes in statutory VAT,  typing errors, misprints, or calculation errors of a price, these result in an increase of more than 20 percent, either the buyer or the seller may cancel the purchase contract.
