    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much do QC photos cost?

    QC photos typically cost $3-5 per item. Some agents include them for free on your first order. The small fee is worth avoiding a flawed item.

    What happens if I miss the 48-hour window?

    The item will be automatically shipped to your address. You can still open a dispute after receiving it, but the process is harder. Always respond to QC within 48 hours.
