If you open the return request, not as described, the seller will have to pay return shipping if she agrees or if you win. I don't see any reason you wouldn't win this easily. With ebay, the buyer is almost always right. If the transaction was international, the seller may not be able to provide the shipping label. You might have to price it and ask her to send you the money through paypal.

If she agrees without you opening a return request, insist on the shipping money ahead of time. Make sure you buy shipping that has tracking. When she receives it, if you have any trouble getting your refund, you can show the tracking to prove you shipped it back.

Thank you so, so much! That's extremely helpful! I didn't know any of that.
 
Not always. Sellers can set their return policy and some specify you have to pay return shipping, so if yours agrees to take it back on her own, she might want you to pay shipping. I had a seller do this to me on a vintage pin missing half it’s stones though listed as perfect. Now if the seller says no returns then you have to fight it through ebay and she will have to pay return shipping if they make her take it back. I probably could have fought having to pay for the pin since the listing was so wrong but it didn’t occur to me,

What you need to do is go into your purchase history and click the return option. Then follow the steps.

Thanks!!
Sucks that a seller would do something like that. Missing half the stones, and asking you to pay return shipping. Like it's your fault. *rolls eyes*
 
If you are in Toronto you can try Curry's, DeSerres, or any art supply store or framing supply shop. I don't think it's necessary to go acid-free as you're not storing the bag with cardboard in it. But if you want to do it it wouldn't hurt. The sheets are quite large so you can use any left overs for storing art, photos, or backing articles for framing purposes. All it does is keep things from turning yellow over time, as the ph in regular cardstock can do.

Yep, Toronto. :wave:
Sweet. Thanks! I'll pick up some card stock.

Worse was her message once she got it back. What made me look closely at it was it was missing a big center stone- saw it right out of box. She told me she had a friend look at it and the friend didn’t think the missing big stone was noticeable so she was off the hook for lying in her listing (and for not catching the other missing stones). Hopefully your return goes better

Oh my goodness, the nerve! That's outrageous. I can totally forgive a mistake - even a big one - you don't know what's going on in someone's life. But that's calculated deception.

So, I rehabbed this Coach Essex for my husband. Here it is after 1 month of use - he is not careful with it at all and it has been raining nearly every day. This is not a glamour shot, no pre-photo buff or polish :smile: This thing is a tank!

Had a lot going on over the past year and took a break from rehabbing and reading this forum...thought I'd check in today. Lots of beautiful work from everyone! The last thing I posted was a messenger bag that was in process for my fiancé's Christmas gift 2017. Never did show the results. Here it is. He loves it and has used it a lot! Does anyone know the style name? I couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks!Jef Bag.jpg
