What to do if an item is not as described

Steps to take when your purchase does not match the listing.

4 min readUpdated 1 April 20263 sections

1Document everything

If your item is not as described, do not confirm receipt. Take clear photos showing the discrepancies, keep the original packaging, and gather any evidence you have — the original listing screenshots, message history with the seller, and delivery documentation.

2Contact the seller first

Before opening a dispute, contact the seller through TRUZH messaging to explain the issue calmly and ask how they would like to resolve it. Many sellers will offer a partial refund, replacement, or full refund without escalation. Give them a reasonable window to respond — typically 48 hours.

3Opening a dispute

If the seller is unresponsive or refuses a fair resolution, open a dispute through your dashboard within the dispute window. Provide all your evidence clearly. The TRUZH moderation team will review the case and mediate a resolution in accordance with our Terms & Conditions and Spanish consumer protection law.
