Consequences of revocation.
(4) In the event of a valid revocation, the goods and services received by both Parties shall be returned and any benefits deriving therefrom (e.g. interest) surrendered. Inasmuch as you are not in a position to return part or all of said goods or services to us, or if you can only return them to us in a deteriorated state, you must, as circumstances warrant, compensate us for the value lost. In the case of licensing of goods, this shall not apply if the deterioration of the goods is exclusively the result of their inspection – as would be the case upon inspection within shop premises, for instance. For the remainder, you may avoid this compensation obligation by not making use of the item in the capacity of an owner, and if you refrain from any conduct that encroaches upon the value of the item.

(5) Items that can be returned as parcels must be returned. In the case of a return deriving from a delivery of merchandise the total value of which is less than or equal to EUR 40, you shall be responsible for the expenses of return, provided that the merchandise delivered to you corresponds to the merchandise you ordered.
