Ever Drop a QVC Return Bag into a Post Office Box?

Nickname new — Tue, 14 Jun 2016 22:49:39 GMT

Just wondering if anyone ever dropped a QVC bag with a return item into a Post Office Box? I always print out the Return Label, but am nervous about not getting a receipt from the Post Office. Your thoughts and/or experiences please?

Yes, I have done this several times and have never had a problem with it. If you are using the pre-printed return label I believe insurance is included. 😊

yep, I do it.I don't return a lot of stuff but on those occasions I just use the label they provide and drop it into the box or hand it to the mailman.

I have and had no problem. As a matter of fact, when Q first started using the prepaid labels, my PO wouldn't give you a receipt when you dropped off a package with a prepaid retun label.

Now they do though.

Yes, I've done it several times over the past year or so. If you use QVC's return label, you can track your return online. I've never had a problem, and it's been quite a convenience if you can't get to the post office during their "open" hours.

All the time, I have never had an incident with QVC not receiving the return.

When making a return, I always turn the bag inside out and use the return label provided.

If the line is too long at the post office, I drop it in the self service box they provide inside.

I have never had a problem and by evening I will see on the tracking information Q provides that the P.O. has scanned it so I know it is safely on its way.

ETA: You can also schedule the post office to pick up your package through your "my account" page which shows your order history. This is super convenient for those items too big for a drop box.

I have done that. I do make a copy of the paperwork with my requests and any other notes I'm including as well as a copy of my mailing label.

I've never needed any of that and always get my return processed before I've had to pay my credit card bill. (I never use debit which would tie up money although the real reason I don't use debit is that all the financial gurus seem still to be saying not to trust debit online.)

The post offices here won't give me a receipt... Too busy. I always drops in the mailbox. QVC usually believes you, if you send it back. Other companies like Evine Live don't.

My post office won't give receipts either but they scan it so there is a record. I usually leave it in the mailbox for my carrier with a note that it's "outgoing".

I do it all the time and always get an e-mail right away from QVC that the package is on its' way back to them. So much easier than waiting in line.

Always use the QVC return label, put it in the mailbox, it's picked up, and later in the day, I receive an e-mail from QVC saying my return is on the way!

Yes, just a couple of weeks ago without a problem.

I have done it for years. Usually I just give it to the mailman or leave it on the counter, but if there is no line I'll get a receipt. I have never had a problem. It gets scanned when it leaves there even if I don't have a receipt.

Yes, all the time. Even easier is to leave a note on my mailbox that there is a package inside my garage door to go. He comes in and gets it.

Last week though, in a moment of "brain fog", I put a package in a Post Office box because I was out doing errands.

My mailman showed up with it the next day and rang my bell. He said "The USPS has great retrun service! Except you put the UPS label on this one. We won't do their work".

He laughed so hard at that one. DOHHHHH!!!! I have no idea where my brain was that day.

I also do this. Turn bag inside out, attach label and either leave in my mailbox or drop in box in front of post office. Have never had a problem.

Thanks for this info! I thought the mailboxes were only for letters. I'll have to look into this, as it's more convenient to drop it off when the post office is closed. I'm working when they're open.
