All options are described in detail on the Shop's website and presented to the Buyer prior to concluding the contract.
    2. Placing an order leads to the conclusion of the first sales contract for coffee. Once the order has been placed, the Buyer pays in advance the price due to the Seller under the concluded sales contract and activates the automatic subscription payment.

If you choose a frequency of successive sales contracts of once every fortnight, the automatic subscription payment attempt is repeated every 14 days.
    6. Each positive authorisation within the automatic subscription payment shall lead to the conclusion of a subsequent contract of sale between the Seller and the Buyer for the sale of coffee corresponding to the type and weight selected in accordance with paragraphs 2 and 3.
    7. Coffee is always delivered within 5 working days of the conclusion of the sales contract.
    8. In the event of a negative payment authorisation for an automatic subscription payment, further attempts are made to process the payment, in accordance with the rules or capabilities of the payment operator. If these attempts fail, the automatic subscription payment is cancelled, preventing the automatic conclusion of further sales contracts.
    9. The Seller shall be entitled to change the price of coffee. If the Buyer has an active automatic subscription payment, the Seller shall inform such Buyer of any change in the price of coffee by email, asking the Buyer whether he accepts the new price. If the Buyer does not accept the new price, the automatic subscription payment is cancelled, which prevents the automatic conclusion of further sales contracts.
