How to handle unauthorized returns?
I sell clothing, and I clearly state in my listings and return policy that I do not accept returns if an item doesn't fit, that I only accept returns if the item is not as described and that if they need measurements to ask before buying.
Well I had a lady who bought 2 of the same items in different colors over a month ago (end of march to be exact). Saturday I get an email from her that says, "sorry these just don't fit me so it looks like I'll be returning them."
To which I replied reminding her that per the listing and my return policy I don't accept returns for sizing or fit.
Well today I get a package in the mail and what do you know its the two shirts back AND an enclosed note that tells me I will also need to refund her the cost of shipping it back to me and for me to please refer to the label for the total amount to send her.
So my question is how do you handle unauthorized returns? When you specifically tell someone they can't return an item and they do anyway?
Obviously I'm not going to refund her the shipping cost.
