Quick thinking saved my SE. - BetterThings2 - 12-04-2021
Hey everyone! Just another success story (was almost a failure lol) So I had an order that I was planning to do the missing item method with, but I misread the the weight of the item for some dumb reason, and I also couldn't dna it. So when the item arrived I was like "damn I can't MIM or DNA" but that's when I got the idea to go the faulty product route that I had to dispose of for safety reasons, and low and behold it worked, and was approved for a refund. This all just to say that a little quick wit can go a long way.

It's good practice to always have a backup method, and you've effectively demonstrated exactly that with a blink of an eye.
Thanks for sharing your experience.

What was the item? Which company did you SE? How long did the whole process take?

This all started a couple weeks ago. I just didnt post because I don't like posting right after an SE.(12-04-2021, 06:02 AM)BetterThings2 Wrote: Hey everyone!
