Hello, how can we help you?

How do return shipping labels work for sellers on Reverb?

Quick answer

If you are located in the US, you can purchase a return shipping label from your Orders page. Return shipping labels are provided by the seller in situations where the item arrived damaged or not as described when the return is taking place within your policy window. If the item arrived as you described it, but the buyer wants to return it within your policy, the buyer will need to supply their own return shipping label.

Buyers purchasing return shipping labels on Reverb:

This should be done if the buyer is returning an item that arrived as described and you have approved a return. 

Return shipping labels are not available for our buyers to directly purchase on Reverb, however, buyers can contact Reverb Support to get one. The buyer must have a shop profile set up with a billing card on file so our team can add the return shipping label to their billing statement.

Pro tip: We recommend confirming your return address with the buyer before they ship the item back to you.
