In case of an effective cancellation the received services on both sides are to be refunded and, where applicable, received advantages (for example earned interest) to be issued. If the customer cannot return the received services at all, can only return the received services partially or only in debased condition, he has to, if applicable, compensate the residual value. On assignment of goods this does not apply, if the debasement is exclusively due to its inspection - as it was possible in the retail shop. In addition, you can avoid duty to the value replacement for deterioration resulting from the intended creation of matter by take the matter as your property in use and do everything which affects its value.
Goods that are in condition for parcel shipment are being sent back at our risk. The customer has to pay the return cost, if the delivered goods conform with the ordered goods and the price of the returned goods does not exceed € 40 or if the consumer has at that time not yet reciprocated or has not yet made a partial payment as provided in the contract. Please contact our customer support at shop@interkart.de, so that we decide whether we can arrange a return service. Otherwise the return is free of charge for the customer. Goods that are not in condition for parcel shipment are been fetched. Commitments for payment have to be complied during 30 days.
