Seller ratings cannot be altered. We ask that you resolve issues with your seller in advance of leaving feedback.

Marketplace Guarantee Claim

Buyers should receive Marketplace items in the condition that they were listed. We ask buyers to first contact the seller to give them a chance to address any issues. If the seller does not respond or if the issue is not addressed to the customer's satisfaction buyers can rely on our Choiceful.com Marketplace Guarantee which covers every purchase.

Buyers are eligible to submit a Guarantee claim if:

  1. Buyer never received the item purchased.
  2. Buyer received a different item than the one purchased.
  3. The item received was materially different than what was listed.

If a buyer and a seller are unable to amicably resolve a dispute with an order, we recommend that the buyer file a Marketplace Guarantee Claim.

Buyers can submit claims from their My Account area. Once a claim has been submitted, the buyer will receive a confirmation email and the claim will be researched. Guarantee refunds will be issued to the buyer’s payment method used for the original purchase.
