I have to return an item to Amazon US for refund. They sent me like 6 pages large labels I have to put on the box. Apart from that they don't assist at all.
I ask them which courier and they don't say. They just sent me the labels via email.


What courier have you guys used with Amazon returns. I asked postnet and they said it will cost over R1K, Amazon charged me R300 to deliver to SA. Which courier do you recommend?

Does the courier company provide the box? The original is squashed and all the labels won't fit on it.
Do I or the courier put on all the 5 labels on the box.
Where do I get the box?
Must I glue the labels on the box and what glue must I use since it is large paper with various barcodes so I am worried it will tear off.
Must I get stickers to print the labels on and who prints stickers?

I am not sure what couriers like putting their own boxes and labels on the stuff or prefer stickers or what.

Is it possible to ask Amazon to do a collection? They're already getting good rates from their couriers they use

T&C sat I will only be refunded once they receive the item back. That's why I want to use a courier that works and has tracking so I can get refund.

I went to postnet but their quote is more than 3 times what I paid to ship here.

If Amazon refunds it then I guess it doesn't matter.
