If the customer's order qualifies as an order pursuant to §145 Civil Code...

Explanation:
This statement is rather puzzling, however. §145 BGB only vaguely makes any reference to an offer and does not lay down any criteria.

"Wer einem anderen die Schließung eines Vertrags anträgt, ist an den Antrag gebunden, es sei denn, daß er die Gebundenheit ausgeschlossen hat."

qualifies as a (legally binding) offer (as defined by § 145 BGB)

Explanation:
§145 BGB regelt Vertragsrecht: "Wer einem anderen die Schließung eines Vertrags anträgt, ist an den Antrag gebunden, es sei denn, daß er die Gebundenheit ausgeschlossen hat."

If the customer's order qualifies as a contractual offer in accordance with §145 BGB [that is, if it does not explicitly exclude it from being legally binding], we can accept this (contractual offer) within 4 weeks.
