If the Consumer or the entity referred to in § 10 chose a method of delivery of the Product other than the cheapest standard delivery method offered by the Store, the Seller is not obliged to reimburse them for the additional costs incurred.
If the Seller did not propose that he will pick up the Product himself from the Consumer or the entity referred to in § 10, he may withhold the refund of the payments received from the Consumer until he receives the goods back or until the Consumer or the entity provides proof of its return, depending on which event occurs first.

The benefits and burdens associated with the Product and the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Product are transferred to the Customer who is not a Consumer at the moment the Seller hands over the Product to the carrier. In this case, the Seller is not responsible for the loss, shortage, or damage to the Product occurring from the moment the Product is accepted for transport until it is delivered to the Customer, as well as for the delay in the transport of the shipment.
