Tell the seller from the store
See who you are actually buying from before you pay.
Many listings on a large store belong to other companies renting the shelf.
The store takes payment and passes the order on. The Sold by line names who actually gets it.
Key points
- Sold by names the company you are actually buying from
- That seller’s own return window and shipping rules apply, not the store’s
What to remember
- The Sold by line is small, and it decides who answers.
- Read the Sold by line before you press Buy.
Try this
Open any listing on a big store and look under the price for the words Sold by.
