The text of the law (unofficial translation)
§ 2. Distinction from purchases
What does this mean?
The section says that the Act does not apply when the agreement as a whole is really a purchase. In that case, ordering, delivery and repair of the goods or the property are part of the purchase. They are not treated as separate craftsman services. The rule sets a limit on the scope (virkeområde) in § 1, which otherwise covers repair, maintenance (vedlikehold) and installation for consumers (forbruker).
The Act also has a rule that terms cannot put the consumer in a worse position than the Act itself (§ 3), and a rule on the risk associated with notices (melding) between the parties (part) (§ 4).
