Almost everything you want to do about undelivered goods requires a deadline set beforehand: withdrawal for a performance that is missing or not in conformity presupposes a futile period of grace under section 323 of the German Civil Code, and damages for delay normally require a default established by a reminder or a fixed calendar delivery date. The final deadline must be concrete — a specific date, specific goods, and a clear consequence if it passes.

Frequently asked questions

How long should the deadline be?
Reasonable — for mailed goods, ten to fourteen days from receipt of the letter has become the norm.
What follows once it expires?
You may refuse the goods, withdraw from the contract and claim damages for the delay, such as the cost of buying elsewhere.
