How do claims work?
Sellers are now able to view all the customer claims filed under the Newegg Marketplace Guarantee program. Any time a claim is filed on Newegg orders, we strongly recommend that sellers take immediate action to address any issues with the customer. Any claims which are not addressed by sellers will be handled by Newegg within the allotted time frame and Newegg guarantees full customer satisfaction on any eligible claims.
How a claim may affect the seller’s account, if sellers fail to respond to a claim or if Newegg determines the seller was at fault, Newegg’s team will issue the refund to the customer on the seller’s behalf and such refund will be debited from seller’s account. Additionally, those claims will negatively affect the seller’s performance. Poor seller performance can lead to warnings or account suspension against the seller’s account.
