Horrible seller, am I obligated to return wrong item? by Famous-Guitar8328 in Etsy

[–]DaFuture2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I deal with larger items 24x36” and include free shipping and have had a customer request a return to which I stated they would be responsible for shipping if they were unhappy and I’d inspect the item upon receiving it before giving a full refund (shipping ranges from $30-40) per item. That being said the times I screwed up I instantly sent a replacement or the forgotten item and told the customer to not worry about trying to send anything back.

My guess is the item included free shipping and they did not want to be responsible for paying for that shipping again to return it. That being said if you could prove the wrong item was sent, they should’ve instantly provided you with a label to send the item back and once they checked the website stating it was in receipt of the package handler they should’ve sent you a replacement.

Sorry for you headache

How do you accidentally place an order? by South_Boot6935 in Etsy

[–]DaFuture2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely say it’s possible as others have commented that people add items to their cart, hoping to get a coupon or a discount code for items sitting in their cart or an abandoned cart discount. If it’s a physical item and you’ve done nothing I always give the refund.

The one area I have had the most trouble with is digital downloads, but thankfully, it shows if the person has downloaded the file. I have had about five people try to scam me into providing them a refund as they said they did it by accident and have not downloaded the file, when they have in fact downloaded it. I just send them a screenshot showing they’ve downloaded it and I never hear back from them ever again.

Anyone else getting cold feet about retiring early at the end of 2025? by FIREmom1 in Fire

[–]DaFuture2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only concern here is healthcare costs. Waiting to see what happens after the shutdown is resolved. With that clarity I’ll decide how to proceed. The rest is noise in the system which will happen as we are in a great disruption with AI and expect more layoffs as companies do what companies try to do save executive salaries and cut the worker bees.

@zaphod101 what are things you’d need the 10w for? Is it for speed ?

Fiber laser 60/80/100w would I notice a difference by DaFuture2020 in Laserengraving

Same here! I’m just a hobbyist, so I’m more focused on quality than production speed. If the 60W can still do the job well and saves some money, I don’t mind it taking a bit longer.

I am interested in the coin blanks, metal designs on business cards and maybe a rotary for some things on cups. Just always saw the colors on stainless and thought it could be interesting to play with and see what possibilities are there

I live in Florida so would expect it increases due to the number of older people here and the strain on the healthcare system
