teeejay94 You wrote a whole article about this just to have to message customer service anyway and get your money back π€£π€£π€£π€¦ You think Amazon is going to care about this article you send them a picture they'll return the money and hope that they correct it, they won't, but thats what dreams are for.

Warlo-rd2000ad I bought a 96GB spare kit of ram before this price hike took hold from Amazon, now I'm thinking of unsealing it to see if it is genuine. I've seen a few other scams doing the rounds like sending back a light enhancement kits instead of real ram, even opening up a CPU and swapping out the lid. I didn't even know taking off the CPU lid was possible, the most I've seen is sanding the lid down to copper for improved cooling. Reply

Once helped my father in law with a build he had purchased all the parts for and waited for me to be on hand to assemble: Found that the 12th gen i9 he bought was a lid swapped Sandy Bridge… That was a fun Easter weekend with Amazon support (they did, eventually, authorize the return) Reply
Metalace69 Starting to think people are scamming amazon tbh… they are probably getting what they bought and pulling a fast one to get a refund. It happens a lot more than you think. Reply
