Consequences of Withdraw / Revocation
In case of an effective revocation, any performance received by one party is to be returned to the respective other, as are benefits derived from such performance, e.g. interest. If you cannot return the goods received in whole or in part or if purchaser can only return the received goods in a deteriorated state, you must pay compensation for value insofar. There is no duty to pay compensation for value, if the sole cause of deterioration of the goods received was the inspection of the respective goods, as would have been possible in a retail shop. For the rest you can avoid paying compensation for value in respect of deterioration in the goods as a result of their proper use, if you do not use the goods the way you use your own property and refrain from doing anything that would curtail the value of the goods.
Items suitable for delivery by parcel are to be returned at our risk. Goods that cannot be sent as parcels will be picked up by us.
