Depending on your financial Institution, fees & charges may apply when opting for a personal loan, so a credit card Is your best option.


I haven't personally experienced It (I push the claim to It's limit until a refund Is Issued), but I have read cases that have failed.

I feel confident in my abilities to get this done but I’m also nervous for the monetary factor / fear that it won’t be refunded.

Maybe start off with other companies for lesser priced item(s) (<$500) and build your way up. Once you get a refund for an item with one company, sell it locally / online and then do another item for <$1000 and so on until you've reached the price of the lens you want?

This way, regardless if the SE fails (which it shouldn't do) for the lens, you'll have paid nothing for it anyway. If you do successfully SE the lens, you'll leave your self with a lot of spare cash to SE in the future and you'll have the item you want.

I remember starting from a £500 bank balance. Now I'm up close to £20k in profits and still have consoles, phones, computers, monitors, speakers, sound systems in my possession that I would never have been able to afford before.

Quite a good idea honestly. Debating just going for the camera and seeing what happens using a credit card and if it doesn't work for whatever reason, just starting to do this and work my way back up.

Give it a go! Let us know how it goes if you do.

I haven't sifted through previous posts, so what method have you decided on using?

I'm going to attempt to do Wrong Item Received - Currently debating which specific model to go for on Amazon. The one(s) I'm looking at range anywhere from $2,000-$4,000, but obviously I believe the cheaper the more likely for everything to go smoothly.

Hello,

So I've just recently done a SE on a camera lens that is pretty cheap compared to one of the item bundles that I hope to SE in the future. The item that I would like to SE is

I have to order some things and wait a little bit of time to make my account look more legitimate again as I've just done a SE, but what tips / methods would you suggest. I believe that the wrong item would be the best method for this, but the real questions I have are:
1) How much work will a SE like this take? It's over $3,000 so I'd assume quite a bit.
2) Is it alright to attempt to SE an item like this even though I have no other purchases even near this price?
3) Would using my Amazon Card be a bad idea for this?
4) What method of payment should I use? I don't have $4k to blow on this from a debit card, so maybe a credit card?

Thanks guys!

any update on what happened? i wouldnt order something that expensive as if you fail the resale price usually means quite a big loss.. but on black friday maybe

[mothered]

but on black friday maybe

It's also good practice to SE during this time of year.

Due to the Influx of orders and claims, they'd struggle to allocate the manpower to thoroughly check claims/returns.

Worked without a problem. Wrong item received.

what was the other items worth? and was it from the same department on amazon?

As a matter of Interest, was It a smooth process or did they request ex-amount of details to finalize the claim?

[Tenney]

For this one it was fairly smooth. Simply sent the item back as they requested and waited. Overall took 1-2 weeks so not too terrible! Think what helped is getting that one person to promise a refund and pushing that agenda.

Was from a different department and little less than $200. Found something that matched the weight almost exactly and never minded spending a little bit to get a lot from it.
