2. A carparking company printed its T & C's on the back of the tickets it issued. It was held in court that they could not be enforced because the customer could only read them after paying for the ticket.

3. Where they are the supplier's standard T & Cs and contain clauses the court thinks are "unfair" or attempt to limit or abrogate the customer's statutory rights.
But none of that is true with Amazon's T&Cs.

They are not "hidden".

Anybody can read them before purchase.

It is the accepted industry practice not to permit the resale of digitally-downloaded goods.
