In case of cancellation of the contract in the event of withdrawal from the contract, the Buyer is obliged to return the goods to the Seller in the condition in which he received them from the Seller, while the Seller is obliged to return the purchase price paid to the Buyer only after the receipt of the goods from the Buyer.
