Wow, author's return experience is nothing like mine:
1. Process return request on Amazon.com.
2. UPS guy knocks on my door with his own label. My guy carries tape and tapes up the box for me, too.
3. Done.
The trick is not throwing out the box until you know you're keeping the item! Same as retail.
- yalogin 11y agoYou forgot to mention that they charge you shipping fees if the reason to return is a simple "you changed your mind". Of course that is comparable to the time you spend driving to the local store. But still, if you are a prime member returns are not free shipping. UPS stores near my house (and fedex too) all charge to tape up boxes and print out labels.
- Domenic_S 11y ago> You forgot to mention that they charge you shipping fees if the reason to return is a simple "you changed your mind" That is true, and it can really bite you if the item is heavy (speaker stands are my personal example - $17 to return $40 stands... I just kept them). On the other side of the continuum though sometimes Amazon will tell you to just destroy the item and won't make you ship it back. That's always a nice surprise. I don't know if it's a regional difference (suburban SV here), but my UPS guy always shows up to my door with his own label and tape. It's REALLY convenient.
