The mere return of the goods to GANTER is not sufficient in order to effectively exercise the right of revocation.

If the Customer revokes this contract, GANTER principally has to repay the Customer all payments, which GANTER received from him. For this repayment GANTER uses the same means of payment, which the Customer used with the original transaction, unless explicitly otherwise agreed with the Customer; in no way will fees be charged to the Customer owing to this repayment.
(6) GANTER can refuse the repayment until GANTER has received the goods back again.
(7) The Customer must only pay for a possible loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is a result of a scope that is not necessary for examination of the condition, properties and functionality of the goods.
