We sell records on Amazon. FBM. I understand when the item is returned for a defect we lose the price of outgoing shipping and pay the cost of return shipping so suffer a net loss. (Is there a way to stop even getting these returned?)
We also get returns for “no longer needed” or “better price available”. When I check the order page there is often a balance of $4.xx left over from the order. Is this Amazon giving us the money for the outgoing shipping? Where does the money for the return shipping come from? I don’t find the Amazon invoicing/order page very intuitive/descriptive.
I’m just trying to figure how much/if we’re losing on these customer returns where the customer changed their mind.
Thanks for any help/resources to read
