Amazon 退货政策——真实期限，以及如何用好它
以下每一条都逐字引自 Amazon 官方公布的退货政策，并附来源链接。如果他们拒绝了你本应享有的退货，Owed 的助理可以替你争取。
退货与退款
30 天官方期限
Most items sold on Amazon can be returned within 30 days of delivery in original or unused condition, and most returns are free at over 8,000 drop-off locations, usually without boxing or labeling. The window varies more than people expect: 7 days on unread Kindle books and undownloaded digital textbooks, 15 days on Apple and Boost Infinite products and Amazon Haul items over $3, 90 days on most nonperishable baby products, mattresses and Renewed items in Acceptable through Excellent condition, 180 days on wedding registry gifts bought by someone else, and 365 days on Renewed Premium and baby registry gifts bought by someone else. The part worth reading before you ship is the fee schedule. Miss the return-by date and Amazon charges 20% of the item price for the first 30 days and 100% after that. Return something damaged, missing parts, with tags removed or with obvious signs of use for reasons that are not Amazon's fault and the damage fee runs up to 50% of the item price — 100% on Amazon Luxury. Opened software, video games and collectible cards carry a 100% restocking fee. An unusually high return rate can also cost you the free return shipping option.
官方原文
“Most items can be returned for a refund or replacement/exchange within 30 days of delivery as long as they are in original or unused condition.”
Amazon Return Policy
“A refund will be provided if Amazon (or the third-party seller) has received the item, and determined that you are eligible for a refund. It can take up to 30 days for us to receive and process your return.”
Amazon Return Policy — processing
“Most items sold on Amazon.com can be returned within 30 days of delivery - some exceptions include:”
Return Window
“Additionally, products listed as "Final Sale" are non-returnable and non-refundable, including trading card games, specific discounted items, and items sold in the Amazon Haul store that are $3 and less.”
Items That You Can''t Return
“In the unlikely event that a non-returnable/Final Sale item arrives damaged, defective, or materially different from what was ordered, please contact Customer Service.”
Items That You Can''t Return — damaged on arrival
“When you order from a third-party seller that fulfills and ships their own inventory, your return is sent back to the seller instead of Amazon.”
Third-Party Seller Returns
“You can return most items for free at over 8,000 convenient locations, typically within a 5-mile radius of your address. Additionally, most returns do not need to be boxed or labeled.”
Sending Us Your Return
“For any return, Amazon may require additional information and documentation (such as a government-issued photo identification) during the processing of a return to help determine whether to provide a refund/replacement. Amazon reserves the right to take additional actions to prevent fraud or abuse (including denial of returns, refunds or exchanges, or imposing return fees).”

如何申请
Go to Your Orders and click Return Items next to the item. Return before the return-by date shown in your confirmation email or the Return Request tab in Order History — that date, not the 30 days, is what the late fee is measured against. Send the item back in original condition with tags attached and hygiene seals intact, in the original manufacturer packaging with all components, manuals and inserts. Do not combine items from separate orders in one return. Wipe personal data off any device before sending it. Third-party sellers who fulfil their own inventory must offer a US return address, a prepaid return label, or a full refund without asking for the item back.

如果他们拒绝
第一次被拒并不是终点——大多数最终获赔的索赔，都是第二次追问后才通过的。有效的升级路径：
- 在同一邮件会话中回复，逐字引用上面的政策条款，附上订单号和日期，并要求主管处理或提供正式投诉编号。
- 如果客服拖延，升级到高管联系人——具体、有据可依的请求比愤怒的投诉更有效。
- 动用支付渠道：以"与描述不符"或"未收到商品"为由申请信用卡拒付（根据美国《公平信用账单法》通常为账单日起 60 天内，按卡组织规则最长可至 120 天——具体期限请与发卡行确认），或发起 PayPal 争议。
- 包裹丢失或损坏时，直接向承运方提出理赔。
- 对外升级：销售平台的买家保障、BBB、所在州的总检察长办公室或 FTC。小额法庭是最后手段。
