Yes, it is a nightmare conversation. They will have to pay for it! Have Etsy settle it!
I am sorry you are having this issue. Have them send a photo of the product. If it is what they ordered, they must pay for it. There are so many people trying to get things for free it is crazy. I have a no refund or exchange policy because of this kind of customer. If there really is an issue, they send a photo. If I do not get a photo, I assume the person is wanting something for free. Take care and if they won't send a photo, do NOT return any money. Good luck! - Mary
i would also send all info to etsy & if not resolved, send to paypal, if this is how she paid & they have come through for me in past. sorry for yur problem.

Sorry to say this but if the item was not very expensive, I would just let it go. It's not worth the aggravation and wasting time thinking about. It does not sound like she did this deliberately to me. If she had, her words would have been chosen a bit more aggressively. I have had a few try to pull one on me over the years but this does not sound like one. Things happen sometimes. Just put it away as a one off and get on with your life.
The problem with letting it go, is that it will happen over and over again more often.
