Revocation right for consumers

(A ‘consumer’ is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day, 


-  on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;

-  on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;

In order to exercise your revocation right, you must inform us (Almost Paradise e.K., Gärtnerstr. 13, 10245 Berlin, Telephone number: +49 171 2766 559, E-Mail address: shopping@almostparadise.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent via post, fax or email). You can use the enclosed specimen revocation form for this, which however is not mandatory.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.


We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry
Greenplants
The plants are fresh products and the fresh products do not have a right of return under the Consumer Protection Act. However, if the quality does not meet your expectations, any comments on the product must be made immediately after delivery, within three (3) days of receipt of delivery. As the plants are living material, late arrivals cannot be considered. Contact only by e-mail shopping@almostparadise.de. Complaints must include clear pictures of the product and any defect in it. We do not handle complaints without photos.

If the product has a quality problem due to the supplier, the return is free of charge for the customer. If the customer does not return the product, Almost Paradise is also not obliged to return the payment for the product in question. It is perfectly normal for plant growth media to contain microorganisms, algae, moss, etc., and these do not qualify for a free refund.

Because our plants are grown in different greenhouses, it is possible that a variety of spiders and their webs can be found in them.  We clean the plants quickly before dispatch, but in spite of this, leaves, dust or carriers of biological pesticides (clay, sawdust) may remain on the leaves.

Bigger damages caused during transport is always the responsibility of the sender. The leaves of the plants may be little damaged as a result of packaging and transport, but if the products are damaged in any other way during transport, we will be liable for any damage.

The revocation right is not available for contracts

  • for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
  • for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
  • for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
  • for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts.
The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
  • for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
  • for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
  • for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.

Returns without prior revocation

If the products are returning without prior revocation, postages will not be refunded (e.g. customer gave wrong delivery address or customer is not at place in the time of delivery). All deliveries have tracking code and has been sent to customers email address during shipping.
