What goes wrong

Where home goods and fragile items orders fail, and what each failure needs.

ISSUE / 01

Breakage

Glass, ceramics and candles crack in transit. Damage is the top claim type by far.

ISSUE / 02

Oversize and multi-box

A set shipped in two boxes with one missing is a missing-item claim, not a lost order.

ISSUE / 03

Carrier exceptions

Damaged-label and crushed-carton scans tell you what happened before the customer does.

ISSUE / 04

Returns of heavy items

A return label for a lamp costs more than for a serum. Rules per product matter.

Three outcomes

Which resolution keeps the customer?

Refund

Money back, done in Shopify

A refund against the original payment, with the claimed value already worked out.

Replace

The product again, not just the money

A replacement order raised once stock is confirmed. The customer gets what they wanted.

Credit

Store credit with a bonus

Keep the customer in your store and add a percentage on top to make credit the better choice.

Questions

Home goods and fragile items merchants ask.

Does the customer have to send back a broken item?

Your rules decide. Most stores ask for photos and dispose locally; BuySure records that on the claim.

Can BuySure replace one piece of a set?

Yes. The claim lists the affected line items and the replacement order contains only those.

What if the carrier scan already shows damage?

The exception scan is on the claim and lowers the risk score; those claims usually auto-approve under your limit.
