The golden age of cross-border e-commerce is still going on. As one of the world's largest e-commerce markets, Amazon US has attracted countless sellers to settle in. However, while sales have soared, the problem of returns has also become a problem that sellers have to face. High return rates not only bring direct economic losses, but may also affect account performance and even lead to account restrictions. So, what is the return situation of Amazon in the United States? How should sellers deal with it? Is there a return warehouse that supports return quality inspection to help sellers manage after-sales more efficiently? Today, let's talk about this issue!

Overview of Amazon's US market: sales have exploded, and the return rate remains high

Amazon's US site is not only the Amazon market with the highest sales in the world, but also the battlefield with the most intense competition. According to statistics, Amazon's share of the US e-commerce market exceeds 50%, far ahead of competitors such as Walmart and eBay. However, the higher the sales, the more prominent the return problem is.

The average return rate of Amazon's US site is between 5%-15%, and some categories even exceed 40%!

Electronic products: The return rate is as high as 30%-40%, mainly due to buyers' dissatisfaction after use or product failure.

Clothing and footwear: The return rate is close to 40%, and they are frequently returned due to problems such as inconsistent sizes and unsuitable styles.

Jewelry and accessories: The return rate is about 30%. Many buyers will return the goods after purchase, and some even take advantage of the "free trial" policy.

Faced with such a high return rate, the pressure on sellers is self-evident. In particular, the high demand for "worry-free returns" from American buyers has made Amazon's return policy more consumer-oriented. If sellers do not have a complete return processing solution, they will not only be prone to losses, but inventory management will also become extremely chaotic.

Challenges in return processing: Problems that sellers must face

1. High return processing costs

The logistics costs in the United States are relatively high. If the seller allows the buyer to return the goods directly to China, the shipping cost alone may be more expensive than the goods themselves! Moreover, cross-border returns involve complex issues such as tariffs and customs clearance, which makes the return process cumbersome and costly.

2. The status of returned goods is unclear

When buyers initiate a return, sellers often cannot know whether the goods are damaged or whether they affect secondary sales. If there is a lack of professional return quality inspection, it may lead to the inability to re-list the goods, further expanding the losses.

3. Difficulty in relabeling/repackaging

Many returned goods are only damaged in the outer packaging or have problems with the label, which can be refurbished and resold. However, sellers often suffer from the lack of local warehouse support, which means that these goods can only be processed at a low price or even scrapped, causing unnecessary losses.

4. Account performance risk

Amazon has strict requirements on indicators such as return rate and customer satisfaction. If the seller does not handle returns in time and the return rate is too high, it may affect the health of the account and even face the risk of account suspension!
