2. Order placement and conclusion of contract
2.1 When we offer products for sale on this Website, this does not constitute a binding offer to conclude a contract. Only when you place an order by clicking or activating the corresponding button or link on the Website are you making us a legally binding offer to purchase the products you have selected under the T&C. However, this offer is always subject to the condition subsequent either that delivery is impossible or that a price was specified incorrectly.
2.2 We accept your offer by shipping or otherwise providing the product, for example by providing a download link. The confirmation of receipt generated in advance by the system, which we will send you immediately after you have placed your order, is merely a confirmation of your offer and does not constitute an acceptance of your offer. In this email or in a separate email, but no later than upon delivery, we will send you the text of the contract (consisting of the order, the T&C, and an order confirmation).
2.3 You can select the desired products from our assortment and collect them in a shopping cart. Before placing your order, you can call up the shopping cart at any time and view and change the items in it. Placement of the order implies agreement with the applicability of the T&C and the confirmation of your acknowledgement of the privacy statement.
2.4 By placing an order, you consent to our use of electronic communications in connection with your order and electronic delivery of notices, contract documents, and records.
2.5 The contract is concluded in German. In accordance with the statutory data protection requirements, we will retain the text of the contract.
3. Pre-orders.
3.1 Products available for pre-order prior to availability will be clearly marked on Lenovo.com. Orders for pre-order products are limited to one pre-order product per customer. Any pre-orders for different products must be made separately. Please note that when purchasing a pre-order product, you are unable to add any other product(s) to your cart. Once your pre-order has been successfully placed, you will receive an email acknowledging receipt via the email address you provided. The acknowledgment email will confirm details of your pre-order and an estimated shipping date. Please note your order is not confirmed until you receive a shipment confirmation email.
3.2 At the time you pre-order a product, your credit or debit card will be authorized for validity but no charge will be made. Your credit or debit card information will be saved for payment prior to shipping. After your pre-order product becomes eligible for shipment, your credit or debit card will be charged the full amount of your pre-order. It is your responsibility to ensure that your payment details are valid at the time of shipment. If your chosen payment method has expired, Lenovo will contact you to request an updated payment method. If Lenovo is unable to get in contact with you via the email address you provided, or you do not respond to Lenovo's email within thirty days, your pre-order may be cancelled. Please contact Lenovo if you need to update your chosen payment method. You'll receive a confirmation email after your order ships. Shipping times for pre-orders may vary and there may be a delay from the time your credit or debit card is charged and your pre-order product ships.

Lenovo will aim to deliver your product in the time outlined in the pre-order acknowledgment email Lenovo sends to you. However, please note that actual shipping date may vary. Should your pre-order be unable to be fulfilled for any reason, Lenovo will contact you via the email address you provided.
