I've been trying to get Ebay on the phone but have had no luck so would really appreciate any help anyone can offer.
I sold a Chanel purse, described the item clearly, put multiple clear pictures, packed it well and shipped it within a day of receiving payment. Buyer contacts me several days after receiving the purse with a return request saying item is Not as Described because the hologram sticker is nowhere to be found. She seemed to think that Chanel hologram stickers are supposed to be on a leather tab. I directed her to the appropriate location and included a photo of the hologram sticker which was included in my listing and clearly shows it isn't on a leather tab - it's inside one of the pockets. The buyer located the sticker and then told me she doesn't feel good about the bag since the sticker is not on a leather tab. I sent her links to the Chanel forum, as well as an article on eBay containing tips on authenticity, but she didn't reply. I tried sending another message but when I clicked "Reply", my eBay screen switched to "You've accepted the return."
I managed to get Ebay on the phone and was transferred to the high value department. I was told the return would not be automatic, and I didn't have to do anything unless the buyer was to escalate it to a case. Well now I see that the buyer has sent the item back.
My listing says I don't accept returns. I also ship Priority for free. Buyer is in HI so shipping cost was $30 including insurance. In the last message I sent her, I said I am willing to accept the return provided she shoulder return shipping costs as well as the original cost of shipping. I feel this is a reasonable request since this is clearly an issue of buyer's remorse and not NAD. She did not reply.
Will I be able to do a partial refund? Or do I have no option other than a full refund since the buyer claimed NAD as a reason for the return? I have sold numerous items on eBay before, most of them designer purses, and this is the first time this has happened to me. It's very upsetting. I would appreciate any assistance anyone can offer. Thank you!
