restocking fee
Refund reduction penalty
A restocking fee is a charge imposed when returning merchandise, especially electronics or appliances.
Retailers justify it as covering the cost of inspecting, repackaging, and reselling returned items.
The fee is typically a percentage of the purchase price: The store charges a 15% restocking fee on opened laptops.
Some consider it a deterrent against casual returns.
