If the couriers destroy the goods, no refund whatsoever will be possible.

If we fail to comply with these Delivery Terms, we are responsible for any loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of the Delivery Terms or our negligence. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it was an obvious consequence of our breach or if it was contemplated by you and us at the time we entered into a contract for sale.
