Frequently asked questions about buyer protection

Why should I have buyer protection, does the right of withdrawal apply?

Right of withdrawal only applies if you shop from a company. The majority of all deals on Tradera are between two private individuals.

What can I do if I haven't received my item and I don't have buyer protection?

When you bought from a private person, you need to contact the seller to resolve the situation. If the seller does not respond or if you cannot agree on a solution, you can report that there was a problem with the transaction by looking for the item among your purchases and leaving a negative review.

When you report a problem with the item, our security department will review the seller's account, however, we will not be able to help you get financial compensation from the seller if you do not have buyer protection.

What can I do if the item is not as described and I lack buyer protection?

You can contact the seller and describe the problem to see if you can come to a common solution. We recommend being calm and matter-of-fact in the contact as it is probably not deliberate on the part of the seller.

Keep in mind that it can also be damage during shipping, and if this is the case, you can also contact the forwarder for compensation. Some freight forwarders require that the person who bought the freight advertises the item, so sometimes it is necessary for the seller to get in touch.
