First Amazon SE - Topwastaken - 02-24-2022
Hello
I’m new to amazon and have looked through countless methods (.even debated ftid) but I can’t find out which one is best for a MacBook . After going throughout countless threads it seems the battery method or dna is the best my account is about 8 years old with over 5k in purchases and no SEs even attempted any idea what method I should do ? Thanks (sealed box seems like far to much time to wait) (ftid ) is flawed from my experience. ( dna) is viable and eb is out of question the one which I am attempting is (2021 Apple MacBook Pro (14-inch, Apple M1 Pro chip with 10‑core CPU and 16‑core GPU, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) - Silver) which might have a problem having the price being 2389 and really would like to avoid PR let me know your thoughts will be attempting soon .

- The wrong Item received
- Disposed of the faulty Item
- DNA (obviously)
- The sealed box
- Leaking battery (battery-compatibility)

I’ve known about most of these just thought they wouldn’t work , leaking battery I mentioned above without the leaking part I suppose this could work to double dip maybe

In terms of filing a report, you can attend your local police station or (where available) do It online.

Let's us know the method you decide on using.
