Previously Refunded Items

If an item was previously refunded you won't be able to refund it if all quantities were previously refunded.

Example:

  • In the example blow you can see that we previously had 2 items that were refunded out of the 2 quantities sold.
  • Therefore, this item can no longer be returned as all items have been previously refunded.
  • The system won't allow you to increase the return quantities for this item.
