[quote name='Navex']Ok, got a question for my fellow eBayers, first time I have ever needed to return something.
Bought some work shoes, turns out they're way too snug on the toes so I decided to see if I could return them. I look at the seller's policies:
Return policy / 14 Days / Buyer pays shipping
Thank you for purchase. We appreciate your business. Please note, in regards to Returns & Refunds: We will accept returns as long as buyer alerts seller via eBay message within 3 days of published delivery date.
Ok, so does that mean they actually only give you 3 days since they say you must alert the seller within 3 days of getting it? Confused since it also lists 14 days but that might just be eBay since I think they give you a default list of options for the days and there's nothing lower than 14 so they picked that but specified...I don't know as I never accept returns.
Anyway, confused on this since it had been about 4 days, I messaged asking if I could return them since it's requested you message about returns anyway. I tell them my case and ask if I can and this is the reply I get:
We are sorry to hear that the item didn't work out for you. Thank you for the information.
Please follow the link and instructions to file for your return.

We look forward to processing your return and refund for you...
Thank you , Management
Umm this is just the Returns FAQ category section on the UK Ebay, the hell? Are they just screwing with me or is there something I'm missing? They tell you to contact them about returns and then when you do they tell you to follow that link which leads you to a Returns FAQ for eBay. They do not allow automatic returns so I can't just click return an item and go from there so I have no idea what I'm supposed to do here. Sorry this text is messed up they used something different and im too irritated to format this ufgh.

So.. read the FAQ if you have no idea what you are doing. It will answer your frequently... asked... question.
"To start a return, open a return case in our Resolution Centre. This will automatically send out an email to the seller to inform them that your case will be tracked."
"To request a return:
- Sign in to My eBay and go to the Won section.
- Next to your listing, select Return this item from the drop-down menu.
- Select I want to return an item and click Continue.
- Review the Return an item form and click Request return to send your request to the seller.
- After the seller has accepted your request, you can prepare postage right away and click Continue.
- Post the item to the seller."
