Amazon Will Now Let You Try On Clothes Before You Buy Them (theverge.com)
For many people, buying clothing online is not worth the hassle of getting a pair of pants or a shirt that does not fit. Many retailers have sought to eliminate that risk by offering free returns on clothing, but now Amazon is going even further. From a report: Amazon is launching Prime Wardrobe, a new program that will let you try on clothes before you buy them. Once you select at least three Prime Wardrobe-eligible pieces from over a million clothing options, Amazon will ship your selections to you in a resealable return box with a prepaid shipping label. After you try on the clothes, you can put the ones you don't want back in the box and leave it at your front door -- Prime Wardrobe also comes with free scheduled pickups from UPS. If you decide to keep at least three items you will get a 10 percent discount off your purchase, and if you keep five or more pieces the discount rises to 20 percent.
I'm waiting for Amazon Girlfriend. They send you 3 girlfriends and you can try them out for a week and return the ones you don't like.

Fart in the pants and send them back.
That would concern me more, except that neither I nor anyone else I know need XXXXXXL pants.
