Stop Punishing Sellers for Wrong Returns!
Sellers on Amazon are losing money because of unfair return charges.
Let’s understand with a simple example:
You sell a product for ₹1000 (lets assume a mixer grinder)
Amazon charges ₹220 for shipping (because the item is big)
A buyer returns a wrong item — a tiny thing like a charger
Even though the returned item is small, Amazon still takes ₹220 as shipping charge from you.
Now let’s see what you get back:
Amazon gives you a refund of ₹600 as safety claim (because the return was wrong)
But they also cut ₹220 for shipping
So, you only get ₹380
Generally the product cost is higher than this because sellers keep minimum margin to sell their product in this tough competitive marketplace — even though it was not your fault!
This is unfair. Amazon should not charge full shipping fees when a wrong product is returned. Sellers need support, not losses!

PLease Be HAPPY atleast you got 380rs.
I sold NOT RETURNABLE category products. Customer complained ORDER NOT RECEIVED.
Customer support team deducted money from my account. So I lose Cost Price of Product + RETURN CHARGES + DELIVERY Charges.
SafeT claim wont work because products are NOT RETURNABLE.

i used to sell non returnable item, buyer used it for 3-4 days and return that product is not working, along that item, 1 free item of rs 80. Now Amazon has refunded whole amount to the buyer and i have received that product which is working properly but without free item and whole charges come in favour of me. This is so wrong we as a sellers are using our hard earned money with less margins and we dont have any support

Buyers buy products without understanding the specifications and place return/replacement requests without valid proofs. Amazon accepts their wrong, unfair returns and expect sellers to bear the huge loss
