Buyer FAQs?

Item isn’t as described?
If the item isn’t as described, reach out to us to request a return within 3 days of receiving the item. Note that you can’t return an item because it doesn’t fit or has an odor if it was otherwise accurately described in the listing.
Once you’ve filled out the form and provided photo evidence, we will thoroughly review the case. If the return is approved, we’ll send you a prepaid shipping label so you can ship the item back to the seller.
