So not a question about internet shopping per se.Richard Frost wrote: ↑Sun Oct 18 2020 11:13amThis was the question:
How often do packages arrive at your home?
Unfortunately only a percentage are sold on to other outlets like The Original Factory Shop or sold on ebay. I have read many of the returned items are sent to landfill.
Could also include Royal Male packages. Answers will be skewed by people like StockportcountyNIL who gets loads of drugs delivered every weekChadwick wrote: ↑Sun Oct 18 2020 2:39pmSo not a question about internet shopping per se.Richard Frost wrote: ↑Sun Oct 18 2020 11:13amThis was the question:

This could also include purchases that are delivered to the home, food shopping, or purchases from local suppliers now offering delivery, as well as the obvious Amazon purchases.
Clothes are the items most often returned. Buy 6 items, try on all, buy one send back five is more common than you would think. Too many people use internet shopping for clothes like they would a shop. But the difference is they are packaged and not off a hanger. So very difficult for firm to resell at a decent profit margin.Sarah wrote: ↑Mon Oct 19 2020 9:28amI doubt that happens to many items from Amazon (for example); they're not exactly a company known for wasteful behaviours... returned "open box" goods are commonly resold through their warehouse and they often advise customers to keep items that aren't economic to return/resell.
