5 Surprising Things You Can’t Return to Amazon

Food

Since we mentioned expiration dates and customer safety, we cannot ignore mentioning the food and grocery category. Unfortunately, you cannot return any type of food or grocery that you have bought from Amazon, no matter if it is sent back to a warehouse or the storefront you have chosen.

When it comes to food, the sale is final, and this is not up for discussion, even if you have same-day shipping and you realize you made a mistake when you receive your order. The company will not accept those products back, and you will be left with them.

Unfortunately, these do not have a nice look around them, and you will truly have to be extremely careful when you place your food order on Amazon, or you will be left buying something you do not like. And if you cannot return something you do not enjoy, you can still make use of it instead of having to throw it out.

You can either give them to friends or family that like that type of food or donate them to your local food bank or church!

    Yes, I have had a return that was not accepted-It was a 32 oz bottle of conditioner-Avalaon-which was almost $20. I had pictures and everything. I tried but they said they did not return or give me another one-It was well within the period required. It was spelt all over my other stuff.-Needless to say ,”wasn’t pleased”.

    I ordered brake rotors that were missing a part and another part was incorrect. The seller is supposed to give return shipping labels but refused. The cost was $437 to ship back the same way they shipped to me, UPS. The order only cost $581 so I can see why they refused even though under Amazon policy they are required to do so. I called Amazon who said to pay to ship back and the A to Z guarantee would pay me back. I did that and sent in receipt…….over and over and over again, over a month went by and they would not pay me back!! A to Z guarantee is worthless and so is Amazon! They try and kill off local merchants so they can take control of the market and eventually turn into crap!!! Nowhere to turn, no way to fix it, you just get screwed.
    Just a fair warning! I will look locally for everything from now on

    #5 is happening to me right now. I purchased a patio dining set that is too big for my deck. After packing it all up and getting the return label…FedEx can not return it….It is from CHINA!!! Or return to the warehouse in California….I live in Massachusetts!!
    The company did tell me to keep the item and they would refund me $170.00….
    The set was $470.00 that I’m am now out $300 for a set that won’t fit on my deck…. I just assumed it was from Amazon, I’ve never ever had an issue with a return until now.

    Lesson learned!
