Returned defective item, received refund, but they put "Reason for Refund" as "Buyer's Remorse" instead of their own error in overlooking the defect

When I politely but firmly said this needs fixing, as I didn't want that on my record, they said "the system" gave them no way to change it... but not to worry, that it doesn't affect my record.

But that is surely not true? Of course it's a ding on my record, how could it not be? Anyone have any info so I can go back and say "I happen to know it DOES affect one's record?"

What part of the world is this boudoir lamp from? Heavy, chunky, silver-plated bead mosaic with European switch, Mexican plug. Seems a skilled artisan's work.

The beads and chain segments are set in a kind of mortar. When you tap it, it rings slightly, as if the mortar is plastered on a glass bottle. It's only 16" tall but weighs a startlingly heavy 6 lbs. When I peeled back the felt on the bottom, it looks like concrete, with a few bits broken off. The switch has European logos on it; the plug says Mexico. I've image-searched to death and find nothing like it. I picked it up at an auction and think it's gorgeous. It's kind of baroque, but has a kind of chunky folk art feel to it.
