Wai.. Lemme explain something to you.. Youre mr. Lebowski. I'm the dude. So thats what you call me.. That or.. Uh.. The duder or el duderino if youre not into the whole brevity thing
Look uh.. Im not tryin to scam anybody here ..Im just ..uh..
Lets just balace the penny by saying it makes you 100x more likely to succeed.
Im not certain about lemmy communities but look up plexshares or jellyfin shares in reddit perhaps?
Also while I do agree money complicates things, since you are the purchaser, typically it carries less risk.
In either event stay away from shares that do not offer a cheap (few days) or free trial. Then again never sign up for "lifetime" bs, go on a monthly plan so you can drop them if the QoS drops.
Yes. Youll have to find one that works for your region though (local servers will have better latency and b/w)
Na homie that was almost 10 years ago.
Or a reverse Narcos TV show where south american authorities enter and destroy US gun factories.
Here I agree with you. They either got a retun reason like "never used, changed my mind" or simply figured out that for a vast majority of purchases with return codes like this, it is safe to reshelf the object and ship it as new.
Whether the object is to be considered "new" or "like new / used" is probably a gray area. I'm not aware of where most other retailers draw the line on this one (walmart, target, costco, etc.). I'm sure the problem is even harder for online retailers, mostly because its much easier for people to lie on an online return form.
Regardless, my only gripe was people in this thread assuming a conspiracy where they intentionally rotate and peddle defective items hoping someone eats the cost.
Playing devils advocate here but.. I suspect what is happening here is a previous purchaser bought it (broke it?), returned it under a different reason (eg. I dint like it) and Amazon decided it is not worth the hassle of rechecking every return labeled as such.
Mind you this is no consolation for someone like you who has go to through this return process, but I cant believe Amazon is "winning" by keeping a defective product like this in rotation long enough for someone to "eat the cost". Defective products hurt Amazon as well and I'm sure they'd rather take the hit if they could pin point which products are defective.
You could argue that they should bear the cost of validating every return, but clearly someone has crunched the numbers and the program is likely not cost effective.
Pricey as they may be, I have seen tickets cost this much via scalpers. Considering that and the fact that most dota players and watchers are in their 30s, they might still sell out.
Im gonna take a second and thank @smorks for taking responsibility to give us this server, then selflessly giving away control and the funds in his charge to the new foundation.
We are grateful for your hard work and transperency.
If I understand correctly, carrier locking is different from Bootloader locking. One implies freedom to use the device on any provider network, while the other is for installing a custom ROM. A Samsung flagship can be bought unlocked by paying full price, but you cannot unlock the bootloader and install Graphene, for instance.
Boboka has been a staple of this team, really enjoyed his plays over the years. Good luck to him I suppose.
Cool thanks for the ownership my dude
Any plans to introduce 2FA for lemmy.ca?
I saw the Jerboa app just added support for 2FA, I guess itll be really cool to be among the first instances to support it.
Where are the r/dota2 refugees?
With dreamleague and div2 DPC ongoing, and reddit going dark for 2 days, how is this community not exploding like others on lemmy?
