I just dont trust amazon for tech tbh. January I ordered a new 1tb NVME and it arrived opened; I'm not about to trust an opened drive when i paid full price for a new one.
Its 100% a huge issue with Amazon, at this point pretty sure everyone knows how all the different sellers get lumped in together so you order from seller A and recieve a product from seller B because Amazon considers them the same thing. Means you can't even be sure wether the seller you thought you purchased from is the one that scammed you; and means even buying from a companies official amazon listing isn't protection.
at this point everyone knows
Yea I reckon most people don't know. Terminally online people know. In your average household, Amazon is prolly considered trustworthy.
Refund that defect.
Oh i did, instantly. I was pissed at the time but i didnt even have the case for that build for another like, 4 days after that
That's why I buy local when I can. BestBuy sucks for a load of reasons, but they price match and can process replacements same day, so I feel a lotore confident buying there than ordering from Amazon. Likewise w/ Target and other brick and mortar stores.
I am so lucky to live near a Microcenter.
Same. Micro center fuckin rocks
Eh, it's probably better for my wallet this way. *sobs*
Oh come on, you could be lucky like a friend of mine who found lots and lots of Rocco Siffredi videos on a new hdd. (it was store bought though, to be honest)
Had to look up who that is, definitely don't think a drive full of mystery porn is "lucky"
Store just has top-notch customer service, they knew what the drive would be used for and pre-loaded it :D
