    §  430.  Duty  of  buyer. 1. Except as provided by subdivision four of
  section four hundred twenty-nine,  within  a  reasonable  time  after  a
  door-to-door  sale  has  been cancelled or an offer to purchase revoked,
  the buyer upon demand shall tender to the seller any goods delivered  by

  thereafter, during which time the goods are otherwise  at  the  seller's
  risk.
    3. If the seller has performed any services pursuant to a door-to-door
  sale  prior  to  its  cancellation,  the seller shall not be entitled to
  compensation therefor.
