I am new to Auctiva and cannot for the life of me figure out how this Auctiva insurance works. The help files in my experience have offered only superficial coverage of the subject and don't answer the questions I have.
Okay, so, initially I chose for insurance to be purchased automatically for every item sold. But then I was getting these notifications that the buyer bought Auctiva Insurance (which already confuses me to no end - how could they buy it, when I already selected it as the default? where they required to buy it or was it optional?), and there appeared to be a separate charge for it (!) (for the buyer).
Now, I promised in my listings that the shipping charge I quoted would already include insurance. I wrote to those buyers offering to refund them whatever extra amount they paid, but have not heard back from them yet.
I set up a dummy account to buy an item from myself, because I really needed to see how it works. The checkout did not say anything about insurance at all, AND on the final payment page said in the "insurance" line - "not offered". WHAT?! The Auto-Purchase Rules for insurance were still on "auto-insure all sold items".
Nor, might I add, did I receive any e-mail notifications that my dummy account bought Auctiva Insurance. It did, however, register as a purchase of insurance in my Auctiva insurance transaction activity.
So, seriously, I am totally lost.
