Double dipped Amazon by accident - tenous - 06-16-2022
Last week I ordered a fire tv stick from Amazon ($19 item). After a few days I didn't want it anymore, so I cancelled it while it was "out for delivery" (Amazon lets you do that with products shipped by them). A few days later I changed my mind and wanted to buy it again, but the price had changed, so I contacted Amazon customer service and asked them if I could buy it for the same price as my previous order. The agent said he couldn't do that, but that he could order a replacement for me.
I received a free replacement and also got a refund for "returning" (cancelling) the original order.
I'm worried because I was trying to keep this account clean and legal until I bought something expensive. I'm wondering if this accidental SE will harm any future attempts.
Edit: I just realized this isn't double dipping, it's just a regular refund. My bad haha.

Its amazon, stuff like this happens here all the time; with me multiple times, 3x got extra unit & 2x got multiple refunds & i never bothered to inform them haha. Dont worry you are good, just maintain decent amount of gap between your SEs or you gonna get ofm'd eventually. XD

It's not even a SE but a mistake on their end, you're safe
BTW double dip means you get 2 items AND the refund, in your case it's a regular "free item"

It's an error on their end and no fault of your own, hence they're responsible for correcting It.
