Third: Many buttons on offer are thin metal restrikes from original designs. I do not know if 'production' has continued or that Overhoff itself produced buttons from old dies.

Fourth: I know German manufacturers managed to get Britisch button contracts c.1980s.

What is wrong with his terms and conditions?
Isn't this standard procedure for a professional seller in Germany?

What's wrong with the terms? Too f**ng complex, you need legal expertise to understand them.
