RE: Would like to SE a Nintendo Switch, best non-amazon store? 03-03-2022, 04:02 PM

Oh, there's actually a blue banner in the item page that says "Not available for delivery to Italy", didn't notice it at first
But yeah, not the best e-commerce, they don't even tell you an item is out of stock until you click to add it to your cart, that's kinda of a shady practice, since they also offer to add it to your wishlist instead, a subtle way for customer retention
Oh well.. what's my next option? I wonder if such a "cheap" item could get refunded by AMZ without any investigation even if I did a SE on that account just a month ago

So far I haven't found any info on other shops I could hit, so I'm kinda rounding up my situation now:
- another member of my family has an Amazon account, but one or more methods of payments are present on both that account and mine
- I SE'd their .de website a month ago
- the item I'm going for is around 350€
Given all this, I'm thinking about hitting the SE with the second account on the .it domain, I don't think they'll stir up a serious investigation for such a "small" DNA and so they shouldn't even check into the multi-account thing, right?
Or should I just use my main account since it's been a month already? it would still be a different country after all
Or, I could create a brand new account, but all of the VCCs I can generate would be tied to my name, can I lie about the invoice name/address on Amazon as well as the name on the card? Sounds like overcomplicating matters to me (I'd also need a drop point)
