The Buyer is obliged to check the correctness of the entered data.

Any discounts on the price of goods provided by the Seller to the Buyer cannot be combined. The Seller has the option to conclude a sales agreement under individually negotiated conditions. Discounts for customer recommendations, respectively for their purchases are only available to those Partners (holders of a partner CODE), which have not yet been granted a discount from the retail price listed on the www.himalyo.cz e-shop.
