Imagine not being able to park your car because your garage is flooded with packages you never even ordered. That’s the reality for one California woman, Kay, who says her life was turned upside down after an Amazon seller used her home as a return address—without her consent.
For over a year, Kay has been receiving hundreds of return packages meant for a Chinese seller named Liusandesdian, according to the New York Post. The seller allegedly markets faux leather car seat covers that customers say don’t fit. So when folks across the country started returning them, they didn’t go back to China—they landed right on Kay’s front doorstep.
“I Can’t Even Park My Car Anymore” — Kay Tells Her Side
Kay explained that she’s now stuck stacking boxes outside her garage just to make space. And when it all started? She thought it was a simple shipping mistake. And it wasn’t just a few returns here and there—these packages poured in for months. She literally couldn’t use her driveway anymore because it was clogged with boxes from strangers.
“When we come home, it was like this. I couldn’t even get my mother in the house…it’s just been another form of hell.”
Amazon’s Response? “You Handle It.”
Even though Kay has repeatedly contacted Amazon, she said all she got in return was a $100 gift card offer and a suggestion that she should deal with the unwanted deliveries. Amazon policy says international sellers must list a valid U.S. return address, provide a prepaid label, or offer refunds. If they fail to comply, Amazon steps in to issue refunds and bill the sellers. However, it’s unclear why the company allowed this to go on for over a year at Kay’s expense.
Finally—Some Relief
After her story gained traction, Kay says Amazon finally stepped in this week and promised she won’t be receiving any more packages from Liusandesdian. Let’s hope that’s true—because no one should have to turn their home into a dumping ground for unwanted returns. And for Kay? All she wants is her garage—and peace—back.
