Refund & Return Policy
Depending on the return policy, you can return some things you bought on SPS. When you need to return something, here’s what to expect.
Return an item
Before you request a return, check the return policy in the listing for the return period and other information.
To return an item for a refund, replacement, or exchange:
Send us the item you bought and its transaction number found in Purchase History. Tell us why you’re returning it. We’ll decide about your refund based on the item’s return policy. If pictures would help show the item’s condition, you can upload them or send them to us. You’re allowed up to 10 photos (PNG, JPEG, BMP, or GIF; max size 5MB) until the return procedure ends.
Our response change based on return policy: we could give you a return shipping label and packing slip, ask you to ship the package to a specific address, or wait for further instructions in case of large or heavy items or returns going abroad. Sometimes, we might give you our return label. Pack the item carefully, include the packing slip, put it on the shipping label, and post it back to us after our confirmation.
You’ve got 14 business days from when you asked for the return to send it. It’s wise to include tracking. If you use a SPS-provided label, you can check the return’s status in SPS under Purchase History. Find the item and select View return details from the More actions menu. We usually refund within 14 business days of getting the return. If you’re asking for a replacement or exchange, you have 14 business days to send the original back once you agree. After receiving your original, we’ll post your new item within 14 business days.
Things to keep in mind:
You should request a return within the listing’s Return policy timeframe. Please ensure you send the item back to us within 14 working days of your return request. Make sure that the item is in the same condition as when you received it. Check out the item condition policy for returns to know more. If your return is because the item did not match its description in the listing, the SPS Money Back Guarantee might assist you. Discover more about the SPS Money Back Guarantee.
Return shipping charges
You or we might cover the cost of sending back items, based on our policy and the return reason. Usually, sellers have buyers pay for returning stuff. Still, some sellers don’t charge—visit the Return policy part of the post. The seller handles the cost if what you got isn’t described. It doesn’t matter what our policy says. If you pay for returns, we take from your PayPal if our shipping label is used. There might be times you need to say yes to a billing deal to okay paying these charges. If you use a different way to send back an item and the seller pays for it, you and the seller must agree on the method and price before you send the item back.
Refunds
Generally, refunds are adjusted to account for potential restocking fees or delivery costs. On returning an item that doesn’t match its description: Suppose you have to return an item because it doesn’t match the listing, comes damaged, or has missing components. Then, your refund calculation is pretty simple: The total cost of purchase plus the initial shipping fee equals your total refund.
All other returns
Sometimes, you might decide to return a product, perhaps because you’ve changed your mind. If this happens, sellers are often able to keep any listed restocking fees. Notably, the original shipping costs may not always be returned. Details on this can be found in the listing Return policy. Furthermore, you might need to cover the cost for return shipping. In these cases, the refund you receive will usually cover the total cost of the purchase. This includes the item’s price, associated taxes, and any extra fees. However, certain deductions may be made. These could be the original shipping costs, unless stated otherwise in the Return policy. Restocking fees may also be deducted if mentioned in the policy. Return shipping costs could be another potential deduction. On the bright side, most of the time the process of returns and refunds is straightforward and free from hassle. So, don’t worry if you need us to step in and provide assistance!
Replacements and exchanges
There are times when we may let you return an item, but not for a refund. Instead, you get a new, similar item or a different one. This means, you get the same thing for a replacement, or something new for an exchange. This could mean a different color or a different size.
The product you exchange or replace has to be worth the same as the original one. If you want to replace or exchange, there are three things to remember: the returns or exchanges policy, a total refund worth less than 10000 INR, and some important stuff. If you’re unhappy because the item is not as described, like a broken part, we’re not picking up the return shipping charge. See return shipping charges. Is your item too unsafe to ship back or broken so bad it can’t be fixed? In this case, SPS Money Back Guarantee can help.
Find out more about the SPS Money Back Guarantee. You need to send the item back within 7 days of asking to exchange or replace it. And if you take more than 14 days to send back the original, you pay for the new one. If your replacement or exchange doesn’t include a new item, or you aren’t happy even after getting the new one, we’re here to help.
All you need to do is ask for our help within 10 days of getting the new item or once the original is returned to us. But remember, if you use other shipping methods, return shipping costs are not covered under SPS Money Back Guarantee’s refunds, not even if the seller agreed to pay return shipping.
