It's not worth my time to return cheap items. It's a huge hassle, because I need to go somewhere with a printer to print the return receipt, attach that to the box, then go somewhere to ship it. Definitely not worth all that trouble to get a few bucks back.

Recently in the UK I can often return items at corner shops with their own printer. You just scan a QR code and hand over the box. The dropoff points are everywhere.

Sellers can get de-listed from Amazon with enough poor reviews. For low-ish value items, they may offer a free replacement to avoid bad seller feedback. Leave feedback and wait a few days for them to contact you.

I don't want a free replacement if it's just going to be the same crap. The problem is that the product itself is crap, not necessarily that any given one is defective. Replacements won't be any better.

And this is still way more hassle than I want to deal with.
