Frequently asked question

Use this text to answer questions in as much detail as possible for your customers.

What is Instant shipping?

RefCheck works with sellers who sell on consignment and stock their inventory with us. Items sold on consignment are available for "Instant" shipping, which means the piece is sent right to the buyer.

We also work with retailers who are trusted RefCheck partners and ship directly to the buyer under our Instant Shipping program.

Products not available for Instant shipping take 4-8 business days to reach the buyer. These items are held by RefCheck Verified Sellers and are sent to RefCheck for verification before being sent to the buyer.

How long does it take to receive my order?

Products available for Instant shipping will be delivered in 2-5 business days as the products are pre-verified and sent directly from our facility with priority processing.

RefCheck Verified Sellers inventories all other items not available for Instant shipping, and when the sale is made, the item is shipped to RefCheck for verification before reaching the buyer's final destination. This process may take 3 to 8 business days.

When must Verified Sellers ship their items after the sale is made?

Sellers must ship their piece within 4 business days from when the sale is made. If the piece is not sent within 4 business days of the sale, the buyer is automatically refunded.

What happens if my item doesn't pass through verification?

As a verified seller, it's your responsibility to accurately and honestly identify all flaws on your piece before verification.

Pieces that reach a final verification of at least 0.75 points lower than the virtual verification claimed by the seller or are listed as mint condition and come in with a flaw observe the following protocol by the buyer. The buyer has the choice to cancel and request a refund, continue to accept the order, or you can negotiate a lower price for the purchase with the seller for a 48-hour timed window, and they must respond within 48 hours to initiate the process. If the buyer does not respond within the 48 hours, the sale will continue, and the piece will be shipped to the buyer. If a price is settled within the time period, the deal continues. If a price isn't agreed upon, the buyer is refunded, the seller pays for shipping back to their location + $25 fee, and the seller receives a strike on our platform.
