Discaroo Dollars
Discaroo Dollars are quasi-cash which means they aren't real money per se and only have value on Discaroo. Discaroo will make every reasonable effort to create a virtual economy in which the Discaroo Dollar holds its value, but we can't guarantee this. Discaroo Dollars can not be redeemed for cash as of December 22, 2008.
Buyer Protection Policy
Discaroo reserves the right to refund Discaroo Dollars at our discretion if a purchased product has not been received AND the seller is unresponsive for 2 weeks past the date of purchase. We will not pursue refunds if the seller had less than 3 positive feedbacks at the time of purchase. Once we initiate a refund request the seller will have an additional 2 weeks to respond with a resolution. Failure to resolve the issue will result in the purchase amount being debited from the seller's account and refunded to the buyer. Refunds will only be made if the seller still has the funds in their account. If they do not have the funds and have displayed a pattern of theft Discaroo may choose to press mail fraud charges. No refunds will be offered if the merchandise is unsatisfactory, but you can and should, leave appropriate feedback.
