Handling Cancellations and Returns


Managing cancellations and returns effectively is crucial for maintaining positive relationships with customers on ComeMarket. A clear, reliable process enhances customer satisfaction and strengthens your reputation as a trustworthy seller.

1. Managing Cancellations

When a Customer Requests a Cancellation

  • Check the Order Status – If the order hasn’t shipped, cancel it directly from your Seller Dashboard.
  • Communicate Promptly – Notify the customer of approval and provide a refund timeline.
  • Shipped Orders – If already shipped, explain that cancellation is not possible but a return may be initiated upon delivery.

Tips to Reduce Cancellations

  • Accurate Descriptions – prevent misunderstandings with clear, detailed product info.
  • Clear Delivery Times – set realistic shipping and delivery expectations.
  • Customer Communication – proactively update buyers to avoid cancellations caused by lack of information.

2. Processing Returns

ComeMarket’s Return Policy for Sellers

  • Review and comply with platform-wide return rules.
  • Set clear shop-specific policies (timeframes, item condition, fees).
  • Display your return policy on each product page.

Handling a Return Request

  • Evaluate the Request – review reason/details; sometimes issues can be resolved without a return.
  • Authorize the Return – if eligible, approve and provide packaging/return instructions.
  • Inspect Returned Items – check condition upon receipt; notify the customer if issues arise.
  • Process Refunds – issue refund promptly as per policy and confirm with the customer.

3. Managing Refunds

  • Refund Timeline – process refunds quickly (within your stated timeframe).
  • Partial Refunds – apply if items show use/damage, but only if allowed under ComeMarket’s rules.
  • Handling Fees – transparently inform customers of any restocking or handling fees before refund.

4. Tips for Efficient Cancellations and Returns

  • Automate Return Labels – prepaid labels make returns easier and improve satisfaction.
  • Keep Records – track all communications, reasons, and refund details for accuracy.
  • Customer Service Approach – even when returns happen, a positive experience can bring customers back.

5. Resolving Disputes
