Hi, my question is: is an independend subcontractor in the same position as a customer of a company selling a product? In their T&Cs there is a clause that I am responsible for the returning postage in case I decide not to use the particular product for sale or other purposes, within 21 days of not exactly specified time (Posting? Delivering? Signature? ) They say that when I buy the product, I can have it the next day, via courier perhaps. I am trying to figure this out in terms of distant selling regulations – when the product is not fit for purpose, as described or damaged, I have the right to return it back after accepting it as there is no chance that I could inspect the content while the courier is waiting for the signature and rushing to other customers.
I know this might be an unlikely event as there is a narrow range of products and couriers tend to handle the goods better (are they? ) but I just want to make sure that I have rights not to loose money on returning postage, since I am actually buying the products for sale so I see myself as a kind of a customer.
