Products listed and sold by independent vendors on the Unfiltered Bazaar are the sole responsibility of the respective vendors. Therefore, all returns, refunds, and replacements for vendor-listed products must be settled directly between the vendor and the customer.

Steps for Resolving Vendor Issues:

1. Review the vendor's return and refund policy listed on their shop page.
2. Contact the vendor directly using the messaging feature or the contact details provided in their store.

• While we encourage customers to resolve issues directly with vendors, we step in for the following serious concerns:
  • Non-Delivery: If you haven’t received the product within the expected delivery window and the vendor is unresponsive.
  • Damaged Items: If the item arrives significantly damaged or unusable and the vendor fails to resolve the issue.
  • Misrepresentation: If the product is entirely different from the description or photos in the listing (e.g., incorrect size, color, material, or quality).

  Our Process for Vendor Complaints:

  • Customers can file a complaint with us at support@unsolicited-opinions.com, providing details of the transaction, photos (if applicable), and communication attempts with the vendor.
  • We will investigate the issue thoroughly and may take one or more of the following actions:
    • Issue a refund to the customer.
    • Mediate a resolution between the customer and the vendor.
    • Suspend or remove the vendor from the platform if they are found to be in violation of our policies.

• We are not responsible for refunds, returns, or replacements for vendor-listed products except in the cases outlined above (non-delivery, damage, or misrepresentation).
• Refunds for vendor complaints may take up to 10 business days after the completion of our investigation.
• All decisions regarding refunds and vendor removals are final and made at our sole discretion.

For any issues or questions about returns, refunds, or complaints, please contact us at:

• Email: returns@unsolicited-opinions.com (for Unsolicited Opinions products)
