Please provide details of what the SE Involved with the sealed box method, particularly the reason for the return.

Pending on the details above, you can say that you told your brother to send It back In your absence, but he put an Incorrect Item In the box.

I think it failed. Since days amazon dont react. I stayed with my story but they dont react anymore. Chat/Mail/Phone nothing.

Its a tablet worth 1k+

They only told me days ago "send item back for refund"

You think they believe me the story with my Brother? Because i told them everytime the box was sealed.

Chargeback no Option for me. Need this Account.

What you think when i send them back the tablet without communication? You think they will close my account?


PS: i put dummy tablet inside the box same weight as original

Then they're offering a refund regardless of the circumstances, which Is exactly what you want.

If they question It, say that your brother told you sometime later that he was curious to see the product, so he opened the box, resealed It (accidently with the wrong Item) and sent It on your behalf.

If you justify your reason (as per above) to send It back, It significantly minimizes the chance of an account closure.

How many days after they received the package did they contact you.
I am using the same method and it has been 5 days since they received the return and I have not yet received any updates

When a few days have passed without receiving a response, always get In contact with them to see where your claim Is at.

I am curious on how you approached this method. Did you replace the item with an old device or just random items that weighed the same? There must be a reason they opened a sealed box which caused this method to fail.

Have you done this method before? I am thinking that they may have history of receiving complaints after reselling items they previously received back from you.

OP stated they put a dummy tablet in the box. But I wonder if, because of the uptick in scamming returns, Amazon has stepped up their policy and now opens all returns?

^ my thoughts as well. Also, could be specific protocol with amazon UK? It seems like each region's protocol for examining returns varies quite a bit.

They told me they have received the return, and if I do not receive the refund within 7 days to contact them again
