Refusing USPS package from Amazon
Hey guys, I was just wondering if anybody here had experience with refusing packages from Amazon.com using super saver shipping (USPS). Will the post office allow me to refuse the package? I've always trusted the brown truck (UPS), but this time I was trying to get the best bang for the buck on a product.

You need to contact Amazon and ask them what the procedure is to return the goods. I've never tried this so I do not know what this entails but it may be that you will be required to pay the postage (you may find that in placing the order you agreeded to such terms already). Anyway, for my Amazon.co.uk orders, the following is part of the the invoice. Quote:

So the USPS does not offer things such as refusing packages like the UPS? I've refused packages before instead of RMA'ing them, but all done with the UPS... I assume worse case is, I'll bring the package to my nearest post office and refuse the package, if not, slap my RMA label on and send it back. |

As for refusing... I don't think so. Mainly because if you don't sign for something how do they know not to leave it in your mail box? USPS (like Royal Mail) do have a return-to-sender procedure, but from what I've read you need to
If you ordered it by mistake you can sometimes get all your money back, if not bad luck I guess. |

Either that or you can call USPS and tell them you want to refuse shipment on item XXXX <-- tracking number.
That way it will be routed back from the item's current location instead of waiting for it to arrive on your doorstep. Works with fedex and ups at any rate. So USPS should be the same. |
