Sind Sie unsicher, welche Rechte und Sicherheiten Sie bei Einkäufen in einem anderen EU Land haben? Fällt es Ihnen schwer, das beste Angebot auszuwählen?

Wie sieht es aus, wenn Sie in einem Nachbarland über das Internet ein neues Fernsehgerät kaufen wollen? Wird es rechtzeitig und unbeschädigt geliefert? Kommt eine Versicherung für eventuelle Schäden auf? Erstattet Ihnen der Käufer im Falle eines Problems Ihr Geld?
