Hello everyone. A few months ago i bought a motherboard from amazon(sold and fulfilled). It broke because of my misuse. Im thinking of sending it back saying it doesnt work but instead i would buy the same exact motherboard and replace the old one by puting it into new motherboards box( so the serial numbers would match). Can this strat work? Plus i have some additional questions:

1) Does amazon check serial numbers of items(say electronics) upon arrival?
2) Does amazon check if the product they recieve(again say electronics) work or not?

Thanks to everone who took their time reding this.

Why not just legitimately return it for a replacement?????

I thought the same thing, he said it was his fault, maybe the warranty doesn't cover that?

Hi. Unfortunately the return window is over and amazon wont take it back. Warranty doesnt work either since im not located in the US.

Any kind of answers would be much appriciated.

Just make a fuss. I don't really care to scam Amazon, but I guess if we're taking about SE'ing, this is one thing I do. Whatever the item is suppose to do, make it clear it did NOT do it and request to talk to a manager or supervisor to make an exception. Normally they'll just tell their colleagues to allow it since it's not doing what it's been advertised to do. I've yet to see a rep actually transfer me to higher management given a good argument for why I need it returned regardless of timeline. Good luck!

Hi. Thanks for the reply but i would appriciate answers on my original questions rather than elaborating on other details.

Just buy another motherboard from your country and return it stating its damaged? Why pay the import fees and such?

That should work. I've tried it with Beats. I bought new beats and, used/damaged beats. I put the damaged beats in the box of the news and returned them. Got a refund around a week later.

Why did it take a week? Seems like usually takes a few days if it's a small purchase, like beats. Shipping to the warehouse?
