1. 1688 adjustment of transaction dispute handling rules will take effect on July 10
According to July 4, the 1688 platform issued an announcement today stating that 1688.com will adjust the transaction dispute handling rules. The formal implementation time for the change of the rules is July 10, 2022, and the scope of the action is for all industries. Before the rules are changed, the parties to the transaction should clearly agree on the party responsible for the freight when returning (exchanging) the goods. If a dispute is caused by unknown agreement, Alibaba will determine the party responsible for the freight based on its responsibility. For free shipping transactions, if the goods are returned only because of the buyer's subjective reasons, the buyer will bear the return shipping fee, unless otherwise agreed by both parties to the transaction.
