ARTICLE 4 OFFERS AND FORMATION OF AGREEMENTS

Offers are valid as long as they are listed on the Website and as long as stocks last.
If the offer is subject to certain conditions, this will be explicitly mentioned in the offer.
Mokabon always describes as fully and accurately as possible what they sell and how the ordering process will take place. In any case, the description is sufficiently detailed to allow you to make a proper assessment. In the event that Mokabon uses images for the Coffee products and/or services on offer, these are displayed as accurately and truthfully as possible. However, to err is human and if Mokabon is obviously mistaken, it is not obliged to still deliver. The images have no contractual value.
An agreement is established and becomes final when an order confirmation is handed to the Buyer or sent by e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the Buyer, and when Mokabon has received approval from the card issuer for the credit or debit card payment transaction.
In case that card issuer refuses to agree to the payment, Mokabon cannot be held responsible for delays in delivery and/or non-delivery of the order made by the Buyer. Orders without valid payment in the name of the registered cardholder will not be accepted or processed.
The consumer purchasing Coffee Products from Mokabon is the end consumer. The Coffee Products may not be resold in any way.
