EB on case fans? - ruonis55 - 04-25-2023

Hey, wanted to know if someone tried EB on case fans, I ordered a 3 pack of them from Amazon.de. Yeah, the weight in tracking is 0,96 kg , it's way past the 120 g safe mark.But knowing Amazon and their reps, maybe it can pass threw or not? Or should I just stick it with DNA? The price of the case fans pack is 72 euros btw.

@mothered your opinion would be great

on some random occasions you can get away with "EB'ing" heavy item's past the recommended mark , alot of times we see people successfully "EB" phones/Vr's headsets but since your not sure whether if luck is gonna play a role by your side you stick with logic .

NOTICE : amazon.de tends to be one of the filthiest customer service i've seen people deal with ...

The fans are not that heavy, maybe the controller in the box itself has a weight. iPhone has weight about 200 grams as far as I googled. So it's not the same as 3 fans and the controller inside a box. But I am now still thinking of just doing a DNA, like it will be delivered to packstation by a shitty carrier who has bad reputation.

That's the gross/shipping weight, which Is obviously not relevant to EB'ing.

So you think EB would work or just stick to DNA? I don't know if Amazon rep would go and check the weight or if he just gave me the refund without asking any questions.

I think the DNA method will work because the cost of the order is small and they can make concessions

I can't say - you've provided the shipping weight.

It's the Item weight that determines the EB's compatibility.

The gross weight is 0.86 kg .Today I took it from the packstation, so yeah, it's not that light like a SSD or some ram sticks.

I used the DNA method, got a refund without any problems.
