What Proof Do You Need to Provide?
SuperBuy acts as your agent and handles communication with the seller. The primary "proof" is our official QC photos and report, which clearly highlight the defect. However, to strengthen your case, you can:
- **Reference Specific QC Photos:** When submitting your request, note the specific photo numbers (e.g., QC Photo #3 shows a tear).
- **Provide Additional Context (if applicable):** If the issue is related to a wrong item (e.g., you ordered a medium but received a large), mention that the size tag in the QC photo does not match your order.
In most cases, our professional QC evidence is sufficient. Our service team will gather all necessary information to support your claim.

- **Monitor Messages:** Check your SuperBuy messages and email for updates from your service agent.
