Not defending Mirco…

There's something that I've noticed in this hobby that I haven't seen anywhere else. I'm wondering if anyone has any insights into why. I regularly see posts where someone isn't happy with a product, wants to return it, and expect the seller to pick up the cost of return shipping. If you don't like something, ship it back on your own dime.

Quoted from Dr-pin:

If you dont like, is not the same as defective or broken.

Agreed... but "defective" is subjective.

Quoted from jq-pinner77:

it's not that we don't like the product it's that it's defective,I would think if you got a defective product you paid for it you would want the seller to pay for return shipping and send a correct item with no defects

My point is, what is truly "defective"? I've seen posts where people call a replacement playfield "defective" because it doesn't have the same amount of glitter in the paint, or because the shade of color is very, very slightly different. There are no real defects there, it's just a little different. Obviously, I'm not talking about reproductions with poorly done or missing art. For whatever reason, this hobby is full of OCD, anal-retentive people who will complain and label something "defective" over the tiniest things, and expect the vendor to pay for the return shipping.

Quoted from Zitt:

Pooling / Soft clear is not a tiny thing.
Lifting inserts same.
mis drilled holes.

Yup. Those are all big problems.

Less glitter in the paint than an original, or a very slightly different shade of color is not. You should still be able to return it if you are unhappy, but the vendor shouldn’t be expected to pick up the return shipping.
