• Manager told me to send pictures of wrong item in iPhone Amazon box with pictures of the Amazon box barcodes etc. (this was a tight fit with the "wrong item" I used, so I recommend trying to order something of similar dimensions to a laptop to avoid running into issues with this
  
• They told me to send it back, so I obliged and UPS picked it up the next day
  
• I had to wait 2 weeks for my refund as they didnt scan it on delivery which was annoying but refund did land.
  
  

This is a brief breakdown of what happened with my Wrong Item received method and it was a great success.

What was the weight difference on your orders? Was they precise?

There was like a 50g difference.

Is there any chance that they will ask for the outer packaging that the wrong item came in? If so, how would I be able to proceed with the SE given that the outer packaging will have a different name and address?
Also, the laptop in question has a reported weight of 1.9kg in the manufacturer's website. On Amazon though the package weight is only 1kg. Am I missing something here?

Nice, how recent was this?  I never had much luck with the wrong item method on Amazon, at least recently, can't remember if I ever did.

This was about a month ago, had to stay firm as it took them a while to accept that I did not have to file a police report, I also had trouble after 2 weeks of them receiving it; CS rep kept saying they did not receive parcel despite tracking saying otherwise, once again got put through to a manager, had to fill out a brief form explaining when I sent it, what I sent etc. and I got my refund in my bank 2 days later.

Wait, is this the wrong item you just got an email about?

I'm surprised they didn't mention rebilling.  Reminds me of when I thought I got away with it https://sinister.li/Thread-Amazon-Wrong-item-received--161643
