Return Policy
A return policy is a great way to build a relationship with customers. Setting expectations can reduce frustration among buyers and cut down on returns. Also, if you're advertising on Google Shopping, you're required to have a clearly stated return policy. Make sure that whatever return policy you create in your booth matches any information that is already included in your item details.
To create a return policy, hover over the "Selling" link located in the upper-left corner of any page and click the "Booth settings" link from the drop-down menu. The click the "Shipping & returns" tab. Scroll down until you see the "Return policy tab" on the left. Select the accurate policy from the menu given; if necessary click the "Add more information" link to add even more details.
Some questions to ask yourself when creating your return policy are:
- Under what circumstances do you accept returns (any reason, incorrect size, damaged item, etc)?
- What is your timeframe for returns (30 days, 60 days, 90 days, any time, other)?
- What kind of refund do you offer (full refund, credit, exchange, etc)?
- When can customers expect a refund (1-2 weeks, etc)?
- How should customers ship returns (pre-paid label from seller, at buyer's own expense, etc)?
