We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.

6.9.2. The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer.
