Seller Protection
The biggest complaint about every marketplace is the same: the platform sides with the buyer and the seller eats the loss. Here is what eddy does instead.
Covered, in plain words
- Lost parcels are our loss, not yours. Ship with tracking to the address on the order. If the carrier never scans a delivery, the buyer is refunded automatically and the sale amount is credited to your balance anyway.
- “Not as described” claims need evidence. A buyer has 2 days after delivery to open a case with photos. You get 48 hours to reply in the order chat. Claims without photos, or that contradict your listing photos and description, are closed in your favour.
- Returns come back before money moves. When a return is agreed, the refund is released only after the tracking shows the item is on its way back to you.
- No chargeback surprises. Buyers pay eddy, not you. A card chargeback is our problem to fight, and it never comes out of a completed sale.
- Reviews are checked. A review from a refunded or cancelled order, or from an account we banned, is removed automatically. You can reply to every review.
- Cancellations do not hurt you. A buyer who cancels before you ship costs you nothing, and the item relists itself.
What you have to do
- Describe flaws honestly and photograph them — that is what protects you in a claim.
- Ship within 5 days, with tracking, to the order address only. Enter the tracking number on the order page.
- Keep the conversation in the eddy chat, where our team can read it if there is a dispute.
- Never take a payment outside eddy — those sales are not covered for either side.
