PurvX Purchase Protection
At PurvX, we value the trust you place in us when making a purchase. Our Purchase Protection Policy safeguards buyers from item misrepresentations and other order issues, offering a clear process if things don’t go as expected.
PurvX Purchase Protection
PurvX Purchase Protection helps ensure buyers receive items as described while maintaining a fair process for sellers.
When you purchase an item on PurvX, your payment is protected until the transaction is confirmed complete. Sellers receive their payout 14 days from the date of shipment (not delivery), allowing time for any eligible disputes to be reviewed.
Reporting an Issue
If there is a problem with your order, you must report the issue within 3 days of delivery by contacting PurvX Support at hello@purvx.com.
Buyers should reasonably inspect the item upon delivery and make a reasonable effort to confirm the issue before submitting a claim. This includes checking for temporary obstructions or minor functional adjustments (such as fabric caught in a zipper, hook, or clasp).
When reporting a problem, buyers must provide supporting documentation such as:
- Clear photos showing the issue
- Video demonstrating the defect (if applicable)
- Any additional information requested by PurvX to review the claim
If requested documentation is not provided within the timeframe specified by PurvX, the dispute may be closed and the transaction considered complete.
