# Non-Returnable Items and Already Returned Items

## Overview

Products can be listed as non-returnable or already returned on the item selection page of the <code class="expression">space.vars.Product\_ReturnsPortal</code>. Items that are excluded from return in each order are non-selectable and displayed in separate sections following the list of items in an order that can be registered for return.

Orders containing bulky products or marketplace items can be displayed separately along with additional instructions for customers who may need to request for a carrier pickup or contact customer service first.&#x20;

#### Key Benefits

By displaying items that are not eligible for return in a separate section, you can provide your customers with a clear overview of which items are excluded from return (for example: dropshipments or items that were already returned).

Having a dedicated section for non-returnable items can help ensure that products are sent back to the correct warehouse (for example: if you have a marketplace in addition to your main brand) and can be used to clearly inform your customers on how they can return items that cannot be registered for return using the Returns Portal.
