Shopify damaged item reply for new brand

Use this page when a new brand needs support replies that make process and policy visible for first-time buyers. The reply should ask for the right facts, explain the next support step, and avoid unsupported promises.

Paste-ready support reply

Situation

A buyer reports damage on arrival.

Reply example

Sorry to hear the item arrived in that condition. Please send the order number, photos of the item, packaging, and shipping label if available. Support will review the evidence and explain the next step under the store policy. For new brand, keep the reply tied to the published policy and current order details instead of making a broad promise.

Replace this example with the store's actual order, policy, delivery, product, support, and privacy details. This is self-serve copy guidance, not legal advice or a promise of a specific support outcome.
