<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1326951, member: 27832&quot;]Handling returns entails significant expense. If you say you accept returns, you&#039;re effectively offering to sell coins on approval. That&#039;s very different from selling them (in good faith) with a &quot;no returns&quot; policy, and only accepting returns if there&#039;s a not-as-described claim.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s particularly a problem for raw coins -- verifying that the coin you got back is the same as the one you sent out, and hasn&#039;t been damaged, adds even more time and risk to the process.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, an unscrupulous buyer can always claim not-as-described, and eBay will likely side with them, but I&#039;d expect that this happens a lot less frequently than voluntary returns.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve had complete success with eBay Buyer Protection. I&#039;ve once or twice bought something that I was on the fence about because the seller offered a return policy -- in effect, I <i>was</i> buying on approval. I&#039;ve only taken a seller up on the return policy once, and in that case, the coins were significantly worse than described anyhow.</p><p><br /></p><p>I definitely <i>don&#039;t</i> view &quot;no returns&quot; as a show-stopper.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
