Sure, but the bulkshipping is only from factory->Amazon unless it is a really common goods. A consumer->Amazon->factory should be about twice the singleton shi

  That's the part where reality hits theory, as usual reality wins. Because before Amazon can ship in bulk, they have to repack all the single returns. They have to store them until they get enough volumes to justify bulk shipments, and usually those shipments aren't article pure. All that costs, a lot more it does for a factory producing this stuff in the first place. Logistics-wise returns and consumer last-mile deliveries are among the worst things to handle.

    I believe that this is why Amazon contracted with Kohl’s and certain other stores to act as drop off points for returns, so that the stores could do the repackaging and then Amazon could just send a truck to pick up the bulk package. No special inside information or anything here, just my personal opinion.
