How Returns Drain Your Margins
Every scratched appliance or marked sofa can trigger a cycle of returns and refunds, eroding your margin on what should be a straightforward sale. The operational costs of restocking, processing refunds, and managing customer dissatisfaction stack up quickly. For an online retailer, maintaining customer trust is vital, and damaged goods can lead to negative reviews and lost sales.
