Unable to Return High-Tax Bluetooth Microphone Ordered on Alibaba

I ordered a Bluetooth microphone on Alibaba worth $36, with a $7 shipping fee. Upon arrival in Turkey, customs informed me that I would need to pay an exorbitant tax of ₺8,000-₺10,000, far exceeding the product's value.

When I attempted to return the product, the seller refused to accept it, leaving me in a frustrating and unfair situation. I reached out to Alibaba for assistance, but they failed to provide any resolution.

This experience has left me feeling helpless and misled, and I want to warn others to avoid similar situations. My order details are as follows:

Order number: 770868593391
I demand immediate action from Alibaba and the seller to either accept the return or resolve the tax issue. This situation is unacceptable and needs urgent attention.
