I remember when I get my I7 refunded on Amazon, Ive ordered a cheap one on .it and the expensive one on .fr

Once I received both, I open the i7 package and replace with the cheap one, I contacted Amazon by email that my item came but the package was open and the CPU inside of it is not the good one

I had to print the Shipping Label and go to the local post office but after they refunded me

Easy but it took like 2-3 weeks so maybe you could do the same, what do you think?

I'm not an expert btw Ive only done this one time and I tried SE logitech this week (still waiting)

What Cheap CPU did you buy, im looking to try this method.

i bought a i7-8700k, i replaced it with an old dual core and i was refunded without contacting the support

same for 32 GO RAM G.SKILL 3200 MHZ
I sent old ram and I was refunded

Thanks bro, what was the name of the dual core you bought? And was it the same weight?

Although Amazon neglect to check return Items at times, given the value of the CPU Is <= 450 (ballpark figure), you're pretty lucky It went unnoticed.

The main thing Is the SE was successful.

@mothered Can I bother you again by PM pls?

Is this the empty box method?  I wil ltry and look for some help on how to formulate my method

Correct.

They will request the Item back, but you only send an empty box/return label. Alternatively, you say the package was received but upon opening It, the Item was missing.

When sending the empty box back do I make it look like the box was opened? Also how likely is this to work? I tried this method for a heavy ASOS package and it didn’t work. I’m wondering if the light weight of this product will work in my advantage

If i say the box was empty do i say that it looks like it was tampered with?

That's fine.

Due to other tasks around this board, at times I may not respond Immediately so be patient. Alternatively, simply create a thread.

Back on-topic:

If you're saying the Item wasn't received, leave It at that. The objective In this case, Is that Amazon neglected to ship the Item.

If you're "sending" the box, the recipient (Amazon) will receive the empty box. As far as you're concerned, you're sending the Item back but obviously you're doing nothing of the sort.

I think it's because I live in Canada and they are less strict than USA/Europe

because I did the same thing for 32 GB ram

i don't know if you remember me but I posted a thread saying that I wanted to remove the CPU / GPU from a computer at $ 3000 and you recommended me not to do it
finally I just removed the GPU and returned the computer, I was refund in 3 days

I finally build a $3000 computer
part by part, 100% SE from amazon

I sift through, generate and reply to so many posts on a daily basis. It's difficult to recall each and every one.

I'm very surprised they neglected to check the PC on receipt.
Good work though.
