Do you think there's an illiteracy component there because when i had to do amazon returns for people and old fuckers would bring me stuff marked for UPS or USPS all day and I'd try to walk them through it a good 90% of people (all ages not just the olds) would just seem to stare at the screen, not registering the words on it, even with me pointing and describing what Im pointing at (i.e. you press your orders, here, to see what you've bought, before selecting the item, before pressing return here etc) and i'd frequently be left wondering how they ever managed to buy the thing to begin with

It's 100% illiteracy. I think if they could actually read, they would act a lot more irate and argue with you about how the return policy sucks instead of just staring in silence.
