How should you proceed when receiving a shipment?
All our items leave the warehouse with the packaging in perfect condition.The first thing you should do is check that the number of received packages matches those sent. Second, inspect each package externally with great care in order to see if there are any signs of it having been hit or mishandled, such as bumps, dents, holes, boxes in poor condition, courier seals or any sign that may lead to suspect that the goods may be damaged. It is mandatory to leave a note and signature on the courier's delivery note, either on paper or digital support (PDA), "PACKAGE VISIBLY DAMAGED" if these signs are present. Not signing a package as VISIBLY DAMAGED and then presenting images that show visible damage to it will mean the incident will automatically be rejected.If you are a Dropshipper, take advantage of the order confirmations sent to your customers to educate them in this good practice, as BigBuy does with its distributors.3. What can I do in case of an incident?
At BigBuy, you will have up to 5 calendar days from receipt of the merchandise to open an incident from your BigBuy account through the Contact Us link. This term is much longer than the usual 24/48h term offered by other providers, since we want to make it easier for dropshippers to obtain and provide all the necessary documentation. After this period, we can no longer claim transport insurance and our system will not allow you to open the incident.Once you have accessed the contact area, you must choose the Logistics and After Sales channel to direct your inquiry to the correct department.• Order not Received , for inquiries about shipments that have not yet been received or for shipments in which you have not received all the packages sent (partial receipt).• Order Received , to report incidents after receiving all the packages of your order. You must provide all the required documents as requested. Sending incorrect or inaccurate documents, or not sending them, will invalidate the possibility of any claim and will result in the cancellation of the incident.As a seller, you must make the preliminary inquiries with your client and receive all the required information in order to correctly complete the incident. You can find all the information requested in the packing list that is attached in all our shipments, whether B2B or dropshipping. This includes your order, the references requested, the stamps or numbers of the operators who prepared your order (check control 1 and 2).You will need to provide a clear explanation with as much detail as possible in the Comments field. You must also add the requested images of the object of the claim in the attachments.4. How do I return goods with manufacturing defects to BigBuy?
BigBuy gives an exceptional free collection service to distributors for those products with factory defects they have collected from their customers. BigBuy will do a free pick-up through its warehouses every two months as long as they have reached 90€ of cost. If this amount is not reached, BigBuy will postpone collection for up to 6 months. After this date, BigBuy will pick up your merchandise for free even if you have not reached that amount. These terms will not be applicable in the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla and non-EU countries where the distributor must send the goods to the mainland, bearing the shipping costs and indicating "defective merchandise - NO COST" on the invoice.If a distributor decides to return the products outside these conditions, the distributor will pay for any costs incurred and must notify BigBuy of this decision so we can process the return.Step 1Access your Control Panel, go to the RETURNS tab and create a DRAFT where you will attach products that can be collected as defective manufacturing. Once any of the above conditions are met, a SEND button will be automatically activated in order to request the collection of the products.Fill in all the requested fields.Step 2Follow the steps shown, once your collection is pre-accepted. Fill in the collection and packages address. Should the TSS require any information, it will be communicated by email. The status of your collection will be notified automatically by our systemStep 3Prepare the package in optimum conditions and introduce all the defective products inside (a) large cardboard box/es. Keep in mind that the original boxes of the products themselves must arrive intact, without stickers or damage. Therefore, it is essential to reinforce cardboard boxes and seal them well.Stick the label that our system generates for printing onto each package. Don't forget to print and stick this label (which contains the RMA number associated with your collection, the package number and an identification bar code) on each package.The warranty covers manufacturing defects and in no case covers wear or misuse. We will only return the money from the products that have a factory defect, so you should inspect those that show any signs of wear or damage closely. In the event of damaged packaging or with courier seals, 100% of the value of the product will not be returned. Therefore, it is important that you advise your customers to protect the returned merchandise with an extra cardboard box so as to not damage the product's own packaging.Step 4Once the products have been received, the BigBuy's TSS will analyse each one of them and once they have all been verified, a replacement or refund will be made, as appropriate. The payments will be made into the wallet. The process of checking and refunding the merchandise can last several weeks from receiving it in our warehouse.5. Return of products in perfect condition
