It would actually be helpful if Zazzle gave a general cancellation reason, so we would know if there was a hiccup caused by our design and how the customer used it. Something as simple as:
arrived late
did not arrive
wrong item
quality of physical product
quality/defective design
no longer wanted
just so we have an idea of “this one could be my design”, “this one was just mishandled shipping”.
I have one that just got canceled literally from late April.
From a designer s perspective, the term Royalty Cancelled is not only inadequate as an explanation but also misleading. Surely Sale Cancelled is more accurate as the royalty is part of the sale and we will understand why the royalty value is in the pink column. If the sale has been cancelled/product returned then there is no royalty.
Sanainvi, unless we know the reason for the cancellation we do not know if it was due to a product defect or a design issue. I assume it is usually a product defect but it would be nice to know.
I agree, it would be nice to know why a cancelation happened. I have had customers cancel an order 1-2 weeks after order and then reorder 2-3 days later. I am guessing it may be due to an error on their part when customizing (perhaps misspelling or a change in an even time). They may have noticed the error when they received the product in the mail and contacted Zazzle. So this can be a reason why some cancelations happen as well.
