Shipping

Do online retailers communicate with their customers during shipping and if so, how? Here, there are some differences between the top 100 online stores.

Returns

How are returns handled? Does the customer have to print out the returns label themself or does the online retailer include it in the package? In addition, the remittance time-frame was analysed. Here, too, there are differences between the online retailers.
