4. Ordering products
A product is ordered by selecting a product in the Online Store offering. The products selected by the Customer are added to the Customer’s cart, where the desired order quantities are selected for the products (1 item always as a suggestion). Products can also be removed from the cart before confirming the order and paying. The technical systems of the Online Store automatically check the availability of the products selected in the shopping cart whenever the Customer visits the shopping cart page. It is possible that the availability of a product shown in the cart will change before the payment transaction.
An order binding on the Customer is created when the Customer sends their order in the Online Store (however, see “Right of withdrawal” for Consumer Customers). The Customer is advised to carefully check the contents of their order before confirming the order. The Customer understands and accepts that the order is subject to an obligation of payment.
Vepsäläinen will send the customer a contract confirmation to the e-mail address provided by the Customer. It is the Customer’s duty to verify that the content of the contract confirmation corresponds to the Customer’s order.

5. Prices
The prices of the products are valid until further notice or for a separately indicated period. The products will be charged for on the basis of the price in force at the time of ordering, as reflected in the contract confirmation.

The prices are stated in Danish krone (DKK) and include VAT. The prices of the products do not include shipping and handling costs. These are stated separately, both immediately at the time of ordering and in the order confirmation sent to the Customer.
