Does Amazon have return limits?
Amazon does not publicly state return limits but may track customers who return a high percentage of orders or value. You may get warnings from Amazon if your return rate raises flags.
What happens if I return too much to Amazon?
If you return too many items, Amazon may send you reminders about their policies. In some cases with excessive returns not due to defects, Amazon could suspend accounts.
