Since I set up my account so many years ago, I didn't know that the returns policy had changed as well. I would definitely feel more comfortable buying from Amazon but it will make me re-think selling items. However, I have found most buyers to be honest people.

I've had that happen to me as well. An amazon seller sold me somthing that was supposed to be brand new. I got it, it was opened, full of scratches, marks, and skipped on my player. She had the nerve to chew me out in an email bc she only used it a few times. Hello!!! Used a few times, even used once is NOT brand new! I got my refund a month later. I told her if she wanted her item I'd gladly mail it back as long as she refunded additional money for shipping or sent me a SASE. Never heard from her again and I had to throw the DVD away. As a buyer, I wasted enough time and resources going through the hassel of dealing with a buyer, she doesn't get my additional $2.50 + envelope and DC bc of HER mistake!

I take the warning for what it's worth, and I'm glad Raina got her money back. As a buyer, I'm glad Amazon has that policy because there are dishonest sellers out there, but as a seller (not on Amazon) I like to have the right to decide when and for what reasons I will accept returns. Sellers pay fees and often will pay extra to make sure the item reaches the buyer. It just doesn't seem fair that now they have to accept returns for no reason whatsoever. This is OT, I know. This thread got me thinking how no-questions-asked return policies sadly encourage irresponsible spending in people who couldn't care less about anyone but themselves. |
