The Return on Returns: Turning Reverse Logistics Into a Competitive Advantage

Épisode 93

mardi 29 septembre 2026 • Durée 27:03

Returns have become a defining part of online shopping, with U.S. retail returns reaching an estimated $849.9 billion in 2025. In this episode of Mailin’ It, Karla Kirby and Jeff Marino explore how retailers can move beyond viewing returns as simply a cost and instead make them a strategic part of the customer experience.

Nagee Jackson, Director of New Business Acquisition at the U.S. Postal Service, explains why an effective returns strategy starts with understanding customer expectations, product value, return rates and the true cost of bringing merchandise back. He discusses how different products—from clothing and perishables to collectibles and electronics—can require very different approaches.

The conversation also examines USPS return solutions, including Ground Advantage, Priority Mail Return and scan-based returns, which can help businesses align costs with actual return activity. Nagee emphasizes the importance of planning ahead for peak season, analyzing historical return data, establishing clear policies and preparing for the physical volume of merchandise coming back.

For consumers, the episode offers practical advice on what to look for in a retailer’s return policy, including return windows, shipping costs and return methods.

The episode concludes with a look at how USPS sales teams can work directly with businesses to develop customized shipping and returns strategies. In the “Did You Know?” segment, Karla and Jeff highlight John Wanamaker, the pioneering retailer and former Postmaster General whose innovations helped shape both American retail and the Postal Service.

The Crime Ring That Left Clues on Social Media

Épisode 92

mardi 1 septembre 2026 • Durée 25:27

In this true-crime episode of Mailin’ It, hosts Karla Kirby and Jeff Marino sit down with Postal Inspector Stefan Hinds to explore an investigation that began with a Hampton, Virginia, shooting and ultimately exposed a sophisticated identity theft and check fraud network. A search of an apartment uncovered cash, printers, phones and counterfeit checks, leading investigators to a broader scheme involving “card cracking,” in which fraudsters recruited people to provide access to their bank accounts so counterfeit checks could be deposited and funds withdrawn before the checks bounced. The investigation expanded to a Chesapeake hotel, where inspectors discovered stolen mail, check-washing equipment and master postal keys, eventually connecting the operation to ringleader Christopher Warren through financial records, surveillance and his own social media activity. Warren was sentenced to 14 years in federal prison and ordered to pay $305,000, while other members of the conspiracy also received prison sentences. The episode concludes with a look at Project Safe Delivery, the Postal Service’s efforts to strengthen collection boxes and replace physical postal keys with electronic security, along with advice for customers on reducing the risk of mail theft.
