Woman Repeatedly Asks Husband to Stop Opening Her Amazon Packages. But He Does It Anyway
For years, one woman's husband has been opening her Amazon packages despite being asked to stopNEED TO KNOW A woman says her husband constantly opens her Amazon packages despite repeated requests not to She says he's lost items and ignored package names, but he finds her anger "ridiculous' A fight erupts after another incident, leaving her questioning if she's overreactingA woman turns to the Reddit community for advice following a heated argument with her husband over a surprisingly common household issue: Amazon packages. In her post, the woman explains that she and her husband have been married for nearly seven years and generally have a great relationship. However, she says this one habit of his has been a constant source of frustration. 'This man will. not. stop. opening up my goddamn Amazon packages,' she writes, noting that even though they share an account, she always ensures that her name is on the order, as do her children. 'It doesn't matter whose name is on the package, he opens them all,' she writes. Though she admits it's not every single time, she says it happens often enough that it's become an ongoing issue. She's brought it up repeatedly over the years, only to have her husband act offended that she's even upset. She shares that this isn't just a harmless annoyance, as it's led to lost items. 'There have been several times where he'll open a package that's not for him and either forget to tell the recipient that their item has arrived, or open a package and lose the item (this happened a couple months ago with something our son ordered and it literally still has not been found)." The issue came up again recently after she worked two days in a row. She came home to find an item she ordered sitting on the counter, already unwrapped. That moment reminded her about another order that was supposed to arrive the day before. When she asked her husband about it, his response only frustrated her more. 'He said 'nothing came for you yesterday but something came for (our daughter) and I put it back in the Amazon package,'' she recalls. She points out that both packages "clearly" had her name on them. Frustrated, she asked him, in a 'normal-volume but irritated voice,' why "he can't just read the name on a package before he opens it." However, that's when things escalated. "He absolutely lost it and started stomping around the house slamming doors and saying he doesn't want to be around me when I'm 'this unpleasant,'' she explains. He then went to bed early and sent her a text from upstairs, accusing her of never taking 'responsibility' for her actions. She explains that her husband thinks it's "completely ridiculous" to get so upset at him for opening her packages. She's now left wondering if she's overreacting about the whole situation. 'Would you guys be pissed or am I being ridiculous for being upset over this?' she asks fellow Reddit users. Commenters quickly reassured her that her frustration was valid. 'It's really not a crazy request,' one user wrote, pointing out that her husband not only keeps opening packages but also loses items and gets defensive when asked to stop. "Like what is the reason? It's not a big ask and, if he's that interested in what you're buying he can just check the account,' they added, noting that the real issue is that her husband keeps ignoring her repeated requests. 'It just feels disrespectful, or at least inconsiderate,' they added. The poster agreed, replying, 'Exactly!!! It's not even that he's interested in what I'm ordering, it's that he doesn't care enough to take the 2 seconds to read the damn label.' She says her frustration mainly comes from how little effort it would take for him to avoid this ongoing conflict. 'I really don't feel like I'm asking for much here but he gets SO defensive about it that it makes me wonder if I'm just being ridiculous,' she adds.

Another commenter asked if this was the only issue in their marriage, agreeing that it's really about the principle rather than the packages themselves. 'It's frustrating he can't see his carelessness affect you, and your kids," they wrote. The woman clarified that, overall, her husband is a great partner and father. She admits he's 'forgetful and disorganized' but says he tries to work on it. She also shares that one of his reasons for opening everyone's packages is simply out of habit. 'He orders on Amazon way more than we do so he just opens them all without thinking,' she explains. Her husband has also claimed that he wouldn't be upset if she opened his packages. Still, she doubts that's entirely true. 'I think he would def be annoyed if I opened all his packages lol,' she writes. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

Amazon seller mistake causes woman to be sent hundreds of packages of the same item
A San Jose woman's home was deluged with hundreds of Amazon packages over approximately a year, causing significant disruption. The packages contained faux-leather car seat covers from a Chinese online seller, Liusandedian, with the woman's address incorrectly listed as the return destination. Customers attempting to return the ill-fitting seat covers faced exorbitant shipping fees, as the seller allegedly violated Amazon 's return policy for international vendors. The woman repeatedly contacted Amazon about the issue, but was initially advised to donate or dispose of the unwanted deliveries. Following an investigation by ABC 7 News, Amazon apologized to the woman, removed the accumulated packages, and pledged to address such seller practices.

Prime mistake! Woman sent hundreds of returned Amazon packages after Chinese company used her address on labels
A San Jose woman's life was made 'hell' after being inundated with hundreds of Amazon packages linked to a Chinese seller. It all 'started with one package,' said the woman, who has declined to be publicly identified. She said the boxes began appearing on her doorstep last year. 'I was like it's got my address, but it's not for me,' she told ABC 7 News under a pseudonym. 'I went to my neighbors and I was like, 'Oh, has somebody put the wrong last digit on the address?'' For about a year, the woman said she has received large, heavy packages to her home 'non-stop,' blocking her driveway, mail carrier and doorway. It made access particularly difficult for her 88-year-old mother, who is disabled. 'I couldn't even get my mother in the house,' she said. 'It's just been another form of hell.' Each package contained a similar set of items: faux-leather car seat covers from a Chinese online seller called Liusandedian. According to ABC 7 News, the company sold the $129 seat covers under the brand name Etkin, claiming they fit a wide range of sedans and SUVs. But dozens of frustrated buyers said the covers didn't fit and were hit with steep return shipping fees to send them back to Liusandedian's so-called 'return center.' Unbeknownst to them, the return labels listed Holton's home address. Hundreds of boxes piled up on her yard, but Holton says that it was a 'fraction' of what could have arrived, as she often refused delivery. The Amazon listing – now marked as 'currently unavailable' with customer reviews disabled – was previously flooded with negative feedback. Over 40 percent of Liusandedian's reviews were one-star, and buyers had no direct way to contact the seller. 'Why haven't I received my refund? Was sent thru UPS 3 weeks ago,' one customer wrote, according to the station. 'It's going to cost me $124 to return this item!!!,' said another. Liusandedian allegedly violated Amazon's policy, which requires international sellers to either offer a U.S. return address, give a returnless refund, or provide a prepaid return label within two days. Holton claimed she filed six separate complaint tickets to Amazon over the past year to try to resolve the issue. Instead, she claimed Amazon told her to donate the packages, give them away, or return them to USPS or FedEx. Following ABC 7 News's investigation, Amazon said in a statement that it had 'apologized to the customer and are working directly with her to pick up any packages.' An Amazon staff member was filmed finally removing all the packages from her property on Tuesday. The company vowed to crack down on these practices, according to the news station.
