Chargeback and Dispute Policy
Our Position on Chargebacks
We Dig Skulls maintains a fair and clearly stated return policy that covers all legitimate product issues. Chargebacks filed against our stated return policy will be contested with full documentation.
When We Contest Chargebacks
We will provide evidence to dispute chargebacks for:
- Buyer’s remorse or preference changes (not covered under our policy)
- Wrong size or color ordered by customer
- Claims filed outside the 30-day window without valid reason
- Insufficient or false documentation provided
- Customers who received and kept products without reporting legitimate issues
Proper Dispute Resolution
Instead of filing a chargeback, please:
- Contact our support team at support@wedigskulls.com
- Provide required documentation for legitimate claims
- Work with us directly to resolve any product issues
- Follow our established return process for covered problems
Documentation We Maintain
For chargeback protection, we keep detailed records of:
- All customer communications and support interactions
- Product quality standards and manufacturing processes
- Shipping confirmations and delivery tracking
- Return policy acknowledgments and order confirmations
- Photographic evidence and quality assessments
Note: Chargebacks cost both merchants and customers additional fees. We prefer to resolve all issues directly through our support process, which is faster and more effective for everyone involved.
