Legal Answer


It depends on why the furniture was returned. If defective or non-conforming goods were delivered, the seller is in breach and should not charge the cost of delivery or anything similar. If the goods were taken back as part of a return-if-not-satisfied policy, the contract probably says that the customer pays transportation charges.
