Dealing With Damaged Labels

Labels can get scratched, faded, or torn. Don't worry — here's what to do.

Reprint the Same Code

The QR code doesn't change. Simply:

  1. Go to your item
  2. Print a new label
  3. Replace the old one

All information and chat history remain intact.

Prevention Tips

  • Laminate — Protects against water and scratches
  • Clear tape — Quick protection layer
  • Metal-safe stickers — For outdoor gear
  • Pre-printed labels — More durable than home prints

Alternative: New QR Code

If you want a completely fresh code (e.g., from a pre-printed label), you can assign a new one to your item. The old code will become inactive.
