So theoretically someone could open a return request and not send photos if they want to scam? 

the only screenshot they sent for proof is a screenshot of the delivery address. 

I’ve had this happened before where someone wanted a refund and sent a picture of a coupon as proof of damage 


First point: yes.

 

Other two points: I'd report the buyer for abusing the Money Back Guarantee / returns process. Sounds like eBay did require a photo and instead of adding one the buyer just sent a screenshot of their shipping address, wiggling their way past eBay's requirements.

Sounds the the same person I just got a neutral from, almost to the exact way he said it...probably the same jerk...I blocked him immediately.

I asked them to send photos of the damage to me and they haven’t so it’s kinda weird. I want proof it happened first 


Depending on the return reason they may not have to supply photos.

Screenshot in first post says the return reason was "arrived damaged." Seller came back to say the buyer did have to upload a photo to the return, but all they did was upload a screenshot of their shipping address.

 

Seller needs to report the buyer for abusing the returns process and MBG.

Refunding seems to be the best option in this scenario.
