The Archiv für die civilistische Praxis recently published the article “Returns with costs in distance selling - For a mandatory obligation of the consumer to bear the costs” by Professor Dr. Thomas Möllers and Julian Glas, LL.M.
The article, which was also presented at a lecture in Porto Alegre, Brazil, in November 2024, takes an empirical and consequential approach to the current legal situation regarding returns in distance selling. With a new look at the modernized purposes of European consumer law, the article argues for a mandatory obligation on the part of the consumer to bear the costs of returning the goods.
