Customer Damaged Returns

I strongly suspect that whoever handled a return for me (FBA) made an error in the process. I sell used books, so I suspect the person marked the item as "Customer Damaged".

Is there a way to contest it without creating a removal order (which I will have to pay shipping on so it's ridiculous). Or is there a way to have Amazon wave the fees for a removal order if I disagree and find the item still in sellable condition?

I tried the chat support but they were no help and extremely dismissive.

Furthermore, it's unbelievably frustrating that Amazon will issue a refund for an item regardless of the condition, how are we held responsible for their damage? The refund should not have been issued in the first place.

We get a few "customer damage" returns and every time they go into unsalable status we call for shipping back to us. Some of them have been cracked and beaten up but in recent months we are getting them back in a saleable condition.

Unfortunately all returns cost us plenty as the customer is fully reimbursed and we take the hit for all charges. But, at least we have another product to sell and hopefully will end up break-even.

The returns process is broken at Amazon and they just refund without a word - knowing that the marketplace seller will take any losses for their actions.

Even the item is damaged by the FBA delivery, the customer gives the negative 1 star review. Amazon still do nothing about it

Hi @Seller_drxOZ9o3kiqnu,

Daryl here from our Forums team, I would like to help you addressing the dismissive assistance provided by our seller support team.

In regards to your feature request of contesting this procedure without creating a removal order, could you please provide me the case ID in question to further assist on this matter?

I will wait your confirmation.

Daryl
