If there is a decrease in the value of the goods due to the BUYER's fault or if the return becomes impossible, the BUYER is obliged to compensate the SELLER for the damages proportional to their fault. However, the BUYER is not responsible for changes and deterioration that occur due to proper use of the goods or products within the withdrawal period.
