Custom cancelled due to

I have sold several customs this summer and feel blessed to have done so.My latest custom was canceled due to husband taking credit card away when he found out how much baby was costing.Do you guys return deposits on customs?She was told from beginning that deposit was non-refundable.

I do likewise. Non refundable means just that.

I only had her pay a $100 deposit.Was charging $200 for finished baby ,so she only owed $100.Preemie Faith.She says her husband hit the roof when he found out she was paying $200 for a doll.I usually charge more.

LOL. Guess I need to quit feeling sorry for people.I was doing it cheap as a favor for a friend who knows her.

Again, non refundable is non refundable. Too bad hubby’s mad A deal’s a deal.

No that deposit was for supplies and it can’t be refunded.
Of course I’m sure PayPal will side with her and you’ll have to refund her any how. I sure hope not. It’s not your fault she changed her mind.
Sorry you’re dealing with this!

The last one I had was for a client that had bought several babies from me so I trusted her with not paying a deposit, needless to say she can’t get the baby now! Never again!

That happened to be too. I made 2 customs for a repeat customer and didn’t charge her any deposit. She approved the babies and picked every detail along the way. When the time to pay cane, she said her PayPal was hacked and she would not be paying anything else online, and that she was sorry. I told her to send me a usps money order… I never heard from her again. Never again, live and learn and ALWAYS take a deposit! :grinning:
