Remember, 3rd party sellers can have items dispatched under Amazon Prime. Meaning it’s Amazon that covers any irregularities.
Regardless, if you buy from Prime your are 100% covered literally no questions asked. We have been with Amazon for approximately 25 years.
In that time I’ve built completely 5 PCs from scratch. Bought thousands of items from TVs to bird feeders and everything inbetween.

We have returned 2 graphics cards with instant refunds and prepaid labels and packaging supplied at the post office (packed and labelled at the counter by the staff)

Try doing that at PC World or any online hardware shop for PCs.
All I will say is ‘good luck’.

People are wankers. Returning hundreds of thousands of items daily switching brand new with their junk and sticking shitty labels on them.

Like I said, you’ll get 100% refunded and replaced and picked up if it’s large for free. Buy from Amazon shops that are obviously well know online as well.

If you buy from Johnny cheapo, you get what you deserve.

Lesson not learned as per usual.
