Questions about Amazon returns

depglass — Tue, 15 Mar 2022 15:43:44 GMT

I do not have a printer. I have two returns for Amazon that I can take to Kohl's on our next trip to the Kohl's cities, both 90 miles away. What do you have to take with you, since there is no packing slip or return slip? Do all Kohl's offer this Amazon return service?

@depglass once you're finished with the return, it will ask if you would like to Print or have it emailed to your phone. I always choose email and then when you get to Kohls, it will be scanned.

It usually shows the Kohls in your area.

If it doesn't you can always call Kohls and ask.

You don't need to make your return at Kohl's you know, right? I surely wouldn't travel 90 miles to make an Amazon return. I live very rural and just take my returns to our locally owned drug store. I get my refund within hours.

@depglass Do you have a UPS Store closer than Kohl's? You can take your return there. The directions for returning on Amazon are quite explicit once you indicate you want to return an item. Just follow their directions. You don't need a printer.

Our UPS used to have morning hours for customers, now its closed all day, maybe for Covid. They did have a small sized return box out front, into which I stuffed a box. As I drove away I saw an employee practically dismanteling the box to get my package out. I rarely buy gambles from Amazon. Quite frankly this is one of the reasons I buy from QVC, not all these ^%$#@ hassles.

Amazon returns are SO EASY! Go online and say you want to return. They send you an email that you show at the ups store along with the unwrapped pkg. Thats it, They handle the rest. Couldn't be easier.

At my kohls, the Amazon return desk is at the back of the store. Can be a problem if your item is heavy or bulky.

@depglass I don't know if all Kohls offer this. Do you have a smartphone? You can just pull up the return code and show it to the Kohl's employee and hand her your item (don't box up) and you'll get your refund within a few hours. (For me Amazon doesn't always give me the option to return at UPS, only Kohls.)

Amazon will mail you a return label for $1.00.

I have found the Kohl's Amazon return lines very long -- frequently over a ten minute wait. On the other hand, they give you a 25% off coupon to use while you're in the store. Clever marketing.

I do not have a printer.
I wrote the numbers off the bar code on a piece of paper along with my name and address and taped it on the package.
I found an Amazon locker near me .
They emailed me a code and I typed it in and put my package in and I was done.
I had a credit that day.

Kohls and UPS are about 10 minutes from me in opposite directions. I choose Kohls because I love Kohls and I shop at Kohls. Also I get a 25% discount coupon which I use that same day. I love it.

Another thing I like about Amazon, you don't have to package the item when returning to Kohls.

There is another option under UPS returns. You can have UPS come to your door. Amazon notifies UPS and the next business day UPS comes to my door with a return label and within a few hours I get an email that my return is being processed. I've done this a few times. So easy and convenient. UPS will make just one attempt to pickup so either leave your package outside or be sure to be home.

Ding Ding Ding! This would appear to be your best option @depglass . I'm reposting it because @Scooty didn't tag you in her post. I wanted to make sure you see it! It doesn't get any easier than having your return picked up at your door.

My brother did this once because he didn't have any choice. It was a hammock and couldn't fit in his car. They came the following day. Otherwise he takes his returns in person because it's close by.

For a far distance, I would call for pick up.

Thanks shoesnbags. Depglass - you can also do a live chat with Amazon or call them to arrange a pickup. I always found the reps to be super helpful.

Bingo! This is how I do it. It's much easier than going to Kohl's. If I might not be home, I take it to the Ups store.

I don't have a printer and I called Amazon. They texed a block with a number on it and I brought it to UPS. They scanned it, and in two days I received my refund. Very easy.

I do not have a printer as well. Amazon sends me an email to my phone and Khol's just scans my phone. Super easy.
