We all know Amazon doesn't really resell returned items. It's somehow cheaper to send the returns to somewhere that will slash and destroy the items and toss them in a dumpster. Such a shame when it could be donated or actually resold at a discount.

This is the part where we learn that the homeowner has been dead for weeks.

I suspect that there is mail piling up in behind the front door as well.

In some cases empty boxes are delivevred?

Certainly there’s got to be a way to see who ordered merchandise or empty boxes to be delivered to that house.

If it were Memphis, that yard would have been cleaned up in no time at all.

Whis is so much basic information missing. Click bait.

Dumb question, but have the police done a welfare check on the occupants?

I’ve heard stories of this happening when a delivery person decides they don’t feel like making multiple stops, so they just pick a stop and unload all the packages there. The article mentions that someone else’s packages were found in the pile, so there may be more.

But the article also mentions the homeowner’s friend using their address as an alternate location for warehouse deliveries. That, frankly, seems idiotic.

For those who don’t have time to read the article and deal with the pop-ups:

‘The people who live in the house did not want to be on camera but said they have a friend who has a contract with an Amazon warehouse in China.

They say, whenever that friend’s contract expires, she will send the packages to their house for the family to sort and then send back to Amazon for the company to sell.’

This is just a reminder that there are a lot of folks who should be committed to mental institutions.

I watched the video and the Amazon Prime delivery guy carries on like it is no big deal to drop off a half dozen packages to the stack already in the front yard.

“It’s dwindled down quite a bit, but, I mean, it used to be stacked all the way up to the road,” said Dustin Nash, another neighbor.

That is surprising, NOT!

I got a used water pick from Amazon - the replacement stopped working after the second use. Too many of their products are low end Chinese ware better bought off Alibaba - they cannot be resold or donated. They are simply junk.

“We all know Amazon doesn’t really resell returned items.”

Not all of us know that. I’ve bought returned items. Amazon lists them as used, coming from Amazon, and that the packaging may be damaged or altered.
