Odd. It's def only camber wear. Out of wack toe would eat your entire tire as well - but I see plenty of tread left across the tire.

I would go back to your alignment place. Show them you got an alignment X amount of time ago, explain that you have negative camber wear and would like them to double check their readings. If they refuse or something doesn't seem right, find a more reputable place.

Only thing I could see happening would be that your camber arm nuts have slipped.

After all that, it could be that you just have bad suspension parts - shocks, bushings (not really a problem in the rear), tie rods, etc. Have them check everything over for wear when you drop by.

Hard to tell from the pics, but from what i can see you have exaggerated toe related wear. Camber wear would be more gradual from inner shoulder to roughly mid-tread. It seems uniform to me except for that narrow spot on the shoulder.

Rear end bounce at all? Struts could be blown.

Looks like toe wear to me to be honest.

Try another alignment shop. Don't know why they'd be telling you that though...
