Well, it could be that there was a hidden message for his father in 
this jumper. If Percy has to write to his little brother at night and 
in a coded way, maybe he's desperate for ways to contact his father. 
I guess he could give him messages through DD if my theory is valid, 
but maybe for whatever reason he had a very personal thing to say to 
his dad, and he figured a returned gift wouldn't be scrutinized as 
much as a normal post would be.

Another reason could simply be that it was just too hard for him to 
have this jumper at home. Maybe he opened the present, dissolved into 
tears, and realized he couldn't possibly keep it if he wanted to stay 
strong.

Or maybe he over-did his act, and figured a resentful son would send 
back anything his parents gave him. He IS risking his life in this 
matter after all, he can't be too cautious.
