*** EDITED by Jennifer– Macros have their time and place, and we all appreciate a funny one, but ‘macro snarking’ is not something I want to see these forums ‘de-evolve’ into. That’s what places like 4chan are for. 😉 Keep the macros to the silly Caturday icanhascheeseburger style threads, please. ***

I while back, I bought a pegasus stallion and the hatchling from someone on Ebay.
The box arrived and everything was perfect. Strong double walled box.
Inside the baby had been rattling against the stallion and both were damaged.
PO would not refund my money as they said the packager was at fault. The seller wouldn’t refund cause he said the PO was at fault. I was out my dollars and have two broken Windstones for my trouble.
Not saying this happened here, but more asking advice. What would have been the best way to get a refund>If it were insured i would go that way its just the easiest way. If they were rattling then the shipper didnt package it properly , and it would be thier fault . The tricky part is how did you pay, if it were PayPal then you can put a dispute through them so long as you have pics to back it up .If you have niether of those then its gonna be a he said she said kind of thing and trying to get the PO to pay for it …well you’d have better luck putting coal in your butt cheaks and getting a diamond, you know the government 🙁
Quote:The outer box was not at all damaged. I’m not asking for money back and nothing to her I’m saying I will return them to her and then she can refund me.
honestly that doesnt make sence . there had to be some kind of damage to the outter box be it a smashed in corner or tape being reapplied from the machines accidently tearing it off durring shipping in the UPS USPS facillity for the inner box to subsatne damage , even just beeing violently rattled gives some sort of outter damage and those facillities will admitt it happens all the time . The only other way for there to be no damage to the outside is that SKI took out a hammer and smashed up your dragon … and i highly doubt that happened . Regaurdless rules are rules and if there is no proof ( box and packaging in this instance) there is no refund from the company . You bought the insurance therefor Ski has NO responcibillity to take money from her pocket to refund you she didnt misadvertise sayng it was a dragon and you got a chicken instead , so like i said she doesnt have to pull anything from her pocket. If you didnt buy insurance and she only draped a paper towle over the item and you had the proof say the box and paper towle then she is responcible because of poor shipping preperation . Its completely your responcibillity to keep the proof to turn in. In that case that you kept the container and packaging ;im quite certain that Ski would do her part in the claim , but as of now your hands are tied.
Quote:I kept the PYO box but not the big outer box all 4 were shipped in. I have never made a claim before for broken items. I did once awhile back for an item that showed as delivered that I never got and still haven’t seen the money for that one.
you must keep all the boxes inner and outter , with packaging. As far as having a claim go through it can take any where from a week to three months to see a refund.Insurance companies go by fiscal quarters to send back money . It doesnt seem fair or prompt but thats how insurers do business , they do a whole quarter at a time to save paper work . What is an inconvienience to us is good business to them
i used to run a shipping and receiving department for a Catterpillar franchise in Baltimore and rule 1 is check out the package before accepting it . If there is damage, and the damage is so extensive that the item couldnt have possibly survived or there is a hole in the box that the item could have fallen out of do not accept the package. If you do accept it and the item is broken take pictures of the box , the packaging that was in the box … paper , peanuts ( i hate those things) foam ect. and store the pictures in a safe place along with all the packaging and the container itself.
As alot of you know some peanuts are made biodegradable containing corn syrup that melt in contact with liquids (i hate them). If a box is soaking wet take a picture of that too and keep the box and its packing contents . If the packing is the peanuts i spoke of they will turn into a sticky mess and will not protect anything (again i hate them) , also they will addhere to the object pulling off paint so its not a good idea to use them with art of any type . As i said keep the box its very easy to see water damage on card board or even wood and metal containers after it is dry (not that any on here would use wood or metal).
If you dont have pictures and the container with packing your SOL. The shipper may have purchased the insurance but they dont provide the monitary compensation the insurence company does, and they WILL NOT pay out squat if they dont have pictures and the container with packing ready for inspection . I know from experience you can just as easily loose a $500,000 claim because of tossing stuff out as easily as a $50 one . Not even the word of the shipper flies with the insurance company they want proof , no proof no claim , thats just how it goes
