How to return items purchased on amazon

Return items purchased on amazon

We are so used to ordering something with one tap that sometimes we order things accidentally on the Internet.

While I was browsing iPad mini cases in the Amazon app on my Apple tablet. I got a message that my Yippee Series spring light pink smart cover was on its way. I wasn’t thinking pink or even smart cover when I was dressing my iPad mini despite the very cheery-sounding name. I wish I could say that this was the first time such a thing has happened to me. On concord, I have accidentally downloaded more than one book for my Kindle in the past.

An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Dollar of Cure

The best way is to turn off one-click on Amazon.com. To do that, go to Your Account -> Settings -> Click Settings -> Click Status. Tap on the option “Turn Off Everywhere.”

If you are concerned about accidental Amazon content store purchases such as in the Amazon Appstore for the Kindle Fire. You can enable parental controls and save yourself. Swipe down from the top of the screen and go to Quick Settings-> More-> Parental Controls -> On. Enter the password and confirm it by tapping on Finish. This won’t change your settings for your Kindle or for Amazon Video purchases on non-Kindle Fire devices.

Now on to what to do if you have bought something you didn’t mean to.

Amazon.com

You have purchased an item from “Earth’s most customer-centric company”. Then your best bet is to stop it before it ships. Go to Your Orders -> Cancel Items. Select the items you wish to cancel and then Cancel Checked Items.

It’s already shipped if you realized too late that you ordered something. Then go to Your Orders -> Return or Replace Items. Then from the drop-down choose Bought By Mistake. You can choose a return option and print a return label. Some items cannot be returned. Contact Amazon directly if you have purchased one of them.
