But I don't see how it was "voluntary." There must have been some agreed upon contract through KitSplit right that makes this not a voluntary but a business-type transaction where the rules are clearly stated: You paid $X, and you get Y for an agreed amount of time. If you don't pay, you don't get it, if you don't return within the timeframe agreed you're in breach of said contract.

The parting is part of a sub-transaction within the overall transaction. In the in-person meeting where the parting happened, the parting it was voluntary. Within the context of the whole transaction, it wasn't voluntary. That context is eliminated when deciding whether it's robbery or voluntary parting, because that's just about the one in-person interaction.
