  1. The status changes to "QC Photos Uploaded".
  2. A direct link to the detailed QC photos appears in the spreadsheet.
  3. You can inspect images for flaws, compare them to the seller's listing, and make an informed decision.
  4. You then ApproveReject

Your decision is recorded instantly, and the agent proceeds with shipping or return negotiations based on your input.
