If it's between ditching the package and returning it for money, which would you pick?

Maybe the contact says shippers only have to fulfill 99% of their shipments, and leftover items (think a reason that makes delivery impossible) can be abandoned or returned for a kickback.

Do you really think Amazon is going to setup a system where only 99% of customers get their stuff? 1% of Amazon's retail sales is $2.5BB in a year.

No, but that was just an example. What about 0.01%?

I don't know much about Amazon's shipment model, but either this guy is telling the truth and there's a system in place, or he's lying. Either way wouldn't surprise me.
