It’s in the best interests of an ecommerce retailer or seller to make good on damaged merchandise if the claim is legitimate and falls within fair and shared return policies.
The seller, upon being notified by the buyer that the product arrived damaged, can do one of the following:
- Send a replacement item with or without requiring the return of the original
- Initiate a full refund without requiring the product to be returned
- Offer a partial refund – depending on the severity of the damage – without requiring the product to be returned
- Request the buyer return the product, and then offer a full refund plus return shipping costs
- Do nothing, which means risking negative feedback, potential removal from a sales platform, and potential legal action
When dealing with damaged merchandise, it is important to act quickly and efficiently.
