I feel like this is a very beginner question - but what's the drawback of charging back after something like FTID fails? You can claim to PP/CC that you sent the item back so I think they would support your side in a dispute.

They're certainly contradictory and not specific on what they deem to be a custom made Item.

I've researched their terms, and they haven't defined anything In particular.

Thank you so much for spending the time to look into it. I guess I can only hope for the best and try to make it seem like it isn't.

You're very welcome.

I believe there's more buried somewhere In their terms, but It's 4 am on my end, so I'll check further at some point tomorrow.

I'm not sure what to make of It at this point.

The only way to fully establish whether they do/do not support custom-made Items, Is to sift through every Intricate detail In their terms.
