Also, It's Amazon's policy to dispose of Incorrect returns, so say goodbye to your 1060.

Okay I've found an AIO that's similar size but 1.98kg rather than 2.1kg. Planning to make a new acc with new details and order it to another address, pick it up and then use the wrong  item received method. Would the weight still be an issue?

I think so yes. There is a good chance they will notice the difference in weight upon you returning the item, hence it will be easy for them to identify that the items have been swapped

Look into the second hand market, if there are any identical items with the same weight, but it would be very hard to do and if they find out they will dispose of your item. With AIO you mean water cooling right?

What you could try and say is saying that you hooked it up in your system and it malfunctioned and started smoking(hazardous material), hence you disposed of it in a bucket of sand.

But if its still the GPU, with a OTP code its near impossible to do unless you do a FTID or order 2 items in 1 go and do the above with the watercooling

It's a 120 gram variance, which Is the maximum weight the missing Item and partial method work with success, so It's no different when using that figure In this case.

Though, It's pushing It to Its absolute limit.

Thanks for the advice, yeah an AIO. If replacing with an AIO would prove unlikely. Trying to buy from Amnz as suggested in the wrong item method, with your suggestion of it smoking, if I was to say it caught fire in my system and had to dispose if it would they buy that?

If you insist on it being a hazard item it should. It has worked before since transport companies dont want to transport flamable items with all kinds of stuff in them.

What you're discussing Is the disposed of the faulty Item method.

The pics are not the Issue - they're easily Photoshopped. The problem Is Amazon will remain adamant to return It, hence It will be an arduous and lengthy process. Even If you claim the carrier won't transport hazardous goods, they'll allocate one that does. Alternatively, the wrong Item received method Is worth considering.
