Can you return items bought on Prime Day?
Yes, you can return most items you buy on Prime Day. Amazon doesn't have a Prime Day-specific return policy. As long as your product isn't one that can't be returned, like anything that's listed as final sale, perishables, Amazon pharmacy products, pet medication and customized items, you can send it back within the specified time period and get your money back.
What's Amazon's return policy?
You can return most Amazon purchases within 30 days of delivery as long as they're in original or unused condition. There are a few exceptions — for example, Apple products only have a 15-day return window (yes, that includes the AirPods or Apple Watch you just ordered). You'll get your refund when Amazon (or the third-party seller) receives and processes the item, which can take up to 30 days, according to the retailer.
If a third-party seller fulfills and ships its own products, and those products are eligible for Prime delivery, they fall under Amazon's standard return policy. If not, Amazon requires the seller to either offer a U.S. return address you can ship the item to, a prepaid return label or a full refund without requiring you to send the item back.
To prevent any return hiccups, make sure you hover over the area where it says 'returns' on a product's page. Doing so tells you what the return policy is for that specific item, ensuring that there are no surprises after you checkout.
What can't you return on Amazon?
There are a handful of non-returnable items on Amazon, including those marked 'final sale.' Here are a few worth knowing about — you can read about all non-returnable items here.

Man Utd 'pull plug' on big-money Amazon documentary due to Ruben Amorim
Manchester United had been in talks of have their own 'All or Nothing' series filmed by Amazon but Ruben Amorim is against the idea and club bosses have now said no to the deal Manchester United have backed out of having their own documentary filmed by Amazon as Ruben Amorim fears it could become a distraction. The Premier League giants had been in discussions for months about having their own 'All or Nothing' series. Already Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham have had their own fly-on-the-wall documentaries filmed, but it requires the club opening up their doors, which their head coach wasn't willing to allow. It is understood Amazon were prepared to pay £10million to gain access but the man in the dugout hasn't pulled the plug on the deal, which had been in the pipeline. Amorim was the driving force behind saying no after the concept was put to him. It was discussed during a meeting of the club's executive committee, who were all united in backing the manager's stance and no documentary will now take place, according to reports. Other factors like the nature of the commercial agreement were cited as factors, as reported by the Telegraph. Amorim knows he is under pressure to produce results and having the cameras up close and personal may not aid his cause. He has a shocking record since taking charge, which led United to post their worst ever Premier League season as they finished down in 15th. The Portuguese boss needs a big pre-season - on and off the pitch - if he is to turn things around. He knows that a slow start will only add pressure. Having cameras inside the dressing room for potentially defining moments is ideal for broadcast, but unlikely to be high on Amorim's wish list. There was a financial motive to having Amazon involved with the club making no secret of their need to consider the balance sheet. A post-season tour to Asia was almost solely financially driven and the extra cash could've eased any pressure, but they will now do without the streaming service's money. The previous docs that have been made it the past have had to cover the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham, which led to Jose Mourinho's return to management. The series on Arsenal began with them sitting bottom of the league as some fans turned on Arteta. It also leaves the club - and certain individuals - open to very public criticism as their methods and reactions to instances during the season are broadcast for the world to see. United's hierarchy would also have need to be visible and potentially explain some of their less popular decisions.

Apple fans rush for 22% off AirPods Pro 2 as Amazon Prime Day sale begins
Amazon Prime Day is here and Apple's best earbuds are on sale at their lowest price in a year Amazon's Prime Week is here - and for Apple fans wanting to snap up a deal, the AirPods Pro 2 are up for grabs for a bargain price but shoppers might want to be quick. Yes, one of the most popular Apple earbuds is currently £179 —the cheapest price in the past year, according to Amazon. In total, Apple fans can enjoy a big 22 per cent discount. The Apple AirPods Pro 2 are the best-in-class noise-cancelling earbuds on the market—perfect for busy commutes, travelling, or just zoning out all the background noise. The Pro 2s also have the new H2 chip helps to create deeply immersive sound. The low-distortion, custom-built driver delivers crisp, clear high notes and full, rich bass in stunning definition. Voice Isolation improves the quality of phone calls in loud conditions. They also cuts out more background noise to protect your hearing. They can even be used to check your hearing, following a free update introduced in February this year. The Hearing Aid feature includes a clinically validated hearing test and a hearing profile that applies to all the music and podcasts you listen to. But there are plenty of alternatives on the market to choose from., both discounted in Amazon's biggest sale of the year and elsewhere. For a cheaper price, the JBL Tune Beam Wireless Bluetooth Noise-Cancelling Earbuds in black for £49.99 and provide noise-cancelling at a much cheaper price as well as 12 hours of battery life. Grab the Apple AirPods Pro 2 from Amazon £229 £179 AMAZON GET DEAL Product Description Meanwhile, on Amazon, Soundcore by Anker P20i wireless earbuds have been reduced by 47% to £15.98. The budget model has an average of 4.4 stars out of 5 from more than 65,000 reviews. But for shoppers with their heart set on an Apple bargain there's also the AirPods 4, which are currently £129 on Amazon - Apple's cheaper but more recently updated earbuds - although they have no noise-cancellation built-in. Our tech reviewers over at the Daily Express reviewed the Apple AirPods Pro 2 when they released - and they got the top score thanks to the amazing sound and noise-cancellation. Tech editor Dave Snelling said: "AirPods Pro 2 arrive with superior noise-cancellation, better sound quality, longer battery life, and a new way to find them when they (inevitably) disappear down the side of your sofa. Apple has also added the ability to control volume from the stem of each AirPod, which saves you the hassle of reaching for your iPhone when you want to pump the bass. "Elsewhere, AirPods Pro 2 – also known as "2nd Generation" – can be recharged using an Apple Watch charger (as well as Lightning cable, and standard Qi wireless charging) and can be used with a lanyard loop to attach to your belongings. "We've been wearing the new AirPods Pro 2 on our daily commute, and they sound very impressive. Sound is rich, plus the improved Active Noise-Cancellation (ANC) cuts out almost all annoying background noise, so you won't have to have your favourite album, audiobook or podcast cranked up to 11 to hear it on the train. We were already huge fans of the original AirPods Pro, and this latest refresh only makes things better." However, one of his biggest problems was the price of the earbuds and, while the £179 price for Prime Day is a solid 20% discount on the usual price, for many they remain a big investment. He added: "At £249, Apple's wireless 'buds are ludicrously expensive and it's a shame Apple still refuses to introduce some much-needed colour – AirPods Pro are only available in plain white. Unlike some other wireless earbuds, there's no EQ in the settings so you won't be able to adjust the audio to suit your tastes."
