5 Surprising Things You Can’t Return to Amazon

Any item with shipping restrictions

This return restriction is strictly tied to those items that are bought internationally and shipped from another country to your front door. It is generally going to cost you too much to be able to return that specific item, if not almost completely impossible if you got it from another country. It can happen, especially when you want to get something very specific.

So instead of ending up with a nasty surprise and not being able to send back something that you do not enjoy or if there was something wrong with the package, make sure you check the policy regarding sending back the items, along with the location of the seller. It happened to folks who were shopping on the wrong Amazon storefront, and you do not want that to happen to you!

    I purchased a laptop no refund would not load
    Let me send it back but did not approve refund. So I was out the computer and the money.

    Thank you for all this good information. Many people do not know there are 3rd party vendors selling on Amazon. This info is good.

    I believe I purchased a desktop (approximately $780) from Amazon and after numerous online attempts to return, I believe Amazon offered me an out (return to an Amazon warehouse in CA), but withheld a hefty sum (if my memory serves me correctly) – $150 was withheld. Sometimes, it’s difficult to determine whether a seller is international or not, as well. So, I now just prefer not to order computers or laptops via Amazon, no matter how good the deal sounds. I have better return options ordering these type items from HSN.

    Or maybe not shop Amazon as often if at all. Everything listed is a no 🧠 er.

    I bought a dining room table from Amazon. It cost me $1,000.00. When it arrived it was very late. When I finally got it, it was damaged. Well wasn’t excepting a dining room table that was damaged for $1,000.00. I jumped through all the hoops to get my money back asking them to come and get the table. They told me that I was responsible to dispose of the table.
