Vat on a buyers prepaid return label
So a buyer returns a item with an amazon prepaid return label (they are responsible for the return costs)
Amazon debit me £3.35 once they use the label,then auto refund the buyer for the item minus the cost of the label,
However they only take the cost of the label before vat from the buyer - £2.79.meaning I am paying the buyers vat on their label
Is this correct?
Surely the buyer should pay £3.35 for the return label?
I have asked amazon about this,amazon say it is because I am not vat registered therefore I can not charge vat on the postage label to the buyer....but I am not the one selling them the postage label?

it used to be when deducting the label costs from refunds they actually added VAT onto thr £3.35 so in effect the customer was charged vat again.
It appears they have attempted to course correct but once again have missed barn door.
Given it took them a good year to fix the adding vat on issue I wouldn’t hope for a quick fix.
