Hi, I accidentally accepted a return request when I was looking at what my options when a buyer requested to return the item for a refund. I have been in contact with the buyer and they are happy to keep the item and accept a partial refund. Can I cancel the return request which is asking me to send the buyer a return postage label and send a partial refund instead? Thanks
If the case opened was not As Described,which requires you to provide a Reply Paid Label, you had no choice as if you didn't deal with it buyer could ask ebay to takeover all at your expense.
You are now in a fix, as we would never recommend a buyer to close a case on the promise of a refund. Once the case is closed, there is nothing to enforce any refund partial or full.
If buyer realises this they may be reluctant to cancel.
Buyer has to Close the Case in the Resolution Centre.
