Particularly with regard to the colour accuracy of product displays, there may be technically caused differences between the screen display and the actual product.
The information about events contained on MERCHGROUND.de is provided by the respective event organizers without the possibility of checking this information.

Current event data can be taken from the official internet offers of the organizer or artist, or other generally accessible sources.

I.) For damages, which are based on the breach of essential contractual obligations due to simple negligence of MERCHGROUND, its legal representatives or vicarious agents, the liability of MERCHGROUND is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract up to a maximum of the value of the delivery item.
II.) Claims for damages against MERCHGROUND for other damages resulting from the breach of secondary obligations or non-essential obligations are excluded in case of simple negligence.

7. BROKERAGE OF CONCERT TICKETS

FOXGROUND GbR is only the agent for the tickets to the above mentioned event and not the organiser. The issuing of the tickets and implementation of the event is carried out by the organiser. More detailed information is available at the box office of the venue or on the websites of the respective organisers. With regard to the booked event itself, a contract is concluded exclusively between the purchaser and the respective organizer. For this purpose, the General Terms and Conditions of the respective organizer, which are in addition to the General Terms and Conditions of MERCHGROUND, apply additionally. Who the respective organizer is will be indicated during the ordering process.
MERCHGROUND therefore especially does not bear the risk of insolvency or insolvency of the respective Organiser. MERCHGROUND does neither determine the ticket prices nor the allocation of the price categories and does not determine where which seats or standing places are available. MERCHGROUND as an agent is also in this respect dependent on the information provided by the respective Organiser and cannot assume any guarantee for its correctness, especially with regard to the availability of seats or standing room.
If the event is rescheduled or cancelled, any claims of the ticket buyers have to be made directly to the respective organizer. There is no claim for the ticket to be taken back by FOXGROUND GbR.
The organiser is exclusively liable for all claims of the end customer in relation to the event.
No part of this website may be used for commercial purposes without the prior written consent of MERCHGROUND. In particular the commercial resale of tickets is prohibited. The purchaser also assures that he will not use his purchased ticket for advertising, marketing or other commercial purposes (including prize competitions and other competitions) or sell it in front of the entrance or entrance area of the event location. MERCHGROUND reserves the right to block the access to this website or not to accept the ticket order if there is a reasonable suspicion that the orderer cooperates with another ticket broker or black market trader or has used automated programs to order tickets or has ordered tickets beyond the maximum number of tickets per person allowed by MERCHGROUND.

In case of wrong information we reserve the right to pass on additional costs (e.g. additional shipping costs) to you.

A transfer to third parties for purposes other than those mentioned above will only take place with your consent and only for the purpose for which you have agreed to the transfer of data. You can revoke this consent at any time.

9. APPLICABLE LAW

All differences of opinion and legal disputes arising in connection with the business relationship shall be governed exclusively by German law, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
