The buyer can request a refund, but unless SDCC has specifically stated in their Terms that the items you buy could potentially be shipped to another person, they're on the hook - legally - to send the item to the buyer regardless if a refund option is available. You simply can't send an item to someone who didn't pay for it. It doesn't belong to them (in SDCC's eyes) regardless if they paid the buyer or not. Zero, I didn't quite follow your scenario I'm sorry! I think I'm using the term "buyer" here as the person who's credit card was used. Having a refund option does not get SDCC off the hook to fulfill a purchase order to the person who paid and entered their address. You just can't do that without permission from the buyer.
Q: I bought three badges during Attendee Preregistration, and a friend was able to get me one more during Open Registration. Which buyer will my badges be sent to?A: All badges will be shipped to the buyer only, regardless of when they were purchased. The three badges you purchased during preregistration will be sent to you, and the last badge purchased during Open Registration will be sent to your friend, and you will be responsible for retrieving it from him/her. (There is an underlying implication, Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.)
I like that I got to enter a ship to address for the badges though. I have my home address on my member id and I can't have anything shipped to the house. Things get stolen off porches all the time but are marked as delivered. Everything larger than a letter goes to work. (It's a good neighborhood...but there's major package thefting.)What would be nice for next year is an option to put a different ship to address on your member id.
and not delivered as a pkg on the front stoop

Wow, I'm really surprised they decided to split up the badge. So this means no consolidated 4 day badges for those who used two different sales
Unfortunately this has created more work for them. At first I thought they were just being stupid. However, the argument above about the legal issues of shipping to a buyer make sense and complicates things. With two separate buyers they become two separate purchased items.
