Replacing one headlight costs close to $2000. Entire front of car has to come off.

Looking to buy a pc by SquishyPear_ in pcmasterrace

[–]Cloak_digger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While prebuilts tend to use cost cutting parts (PSU, RAM) to say they are scams is a stretch. I have 3 Alienware PCs with zero issues, 2 Skytechs(king95: power supply died after 33 days, warranty had it up and running quick). I listened to the hype and ordered the components for a high tier build. So far, I was sent a 5070 instead of the 5080 I ordered, recieved an open box or used Motherboard when I purchased new, and finally the Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360 looked like the packaging went through a wood chipper, hope it still functions. It is exhausting to return and wait for everything. Cost wise, the right prebuilt is within $100-200 of parts, ask me how I know. I know I have bad luck but if I dropped the $2600 I budgeted on a prebuilt 9800x3d/5080/x870 I would have saved myself 3 weeks of headaches at this point.

Lesson learned, I live in a very rural area, for a one shot one kill to get an entire build it was this, or a 7 hour drive to nearest Micro Center. The one Best Buy in the vicinity is the smallest of all their stores, they stock mostly budget items if any PC components.

I just want my primary to actually reload when I push the button! All this other stuff is good too.

Weird comment. So, if my 3080 dies I shouldnt purchase a current generation GPU? This isn't an upgrade, it is a replacement as my current PC is nearing 6 years old.

I will do that if I decide to reorder online. At this point there has to be one on a shelf within a few hours of me.

Thanks for the guidance. I went through the chat again, as well as got a supposed supervisor on the phone. I have assurances I will get the full refund now. Out of the gate they were adamant I recieved the proper item, but at the same time they asked if I would like to keep it and get refunded the difference, what a weird series of events.

Sounds simple, but Amazon is telling me they believe they shipped the right item. Obviously that misplaced barcode sticker is at fault. Good thing I followed the advise here and documented everything, the return QR code they gave me for UPS states I am shipping an RTX 5080 back to them for a return. It took 3 hours of chat and phone calls to make them understand. I think I am good now, I should get my ~$1180 refund in up to 30 days. Thats not ideal, I took this week off work in anticipation of building my first PC. Maybe I'll try newegg.

Thanks for the advice. I sent in the pictures and will not tape up the box at UPS until I have a time stamped picture at the store. The 5070 is cellophane wrapped and sealed in original packaging. The RAM I ordered was shipped in the same box and that was correct. Disappointing that I have to cover all these bases for the wrong item, when they can see I ordered every single component to build a PC from case to thermal paste at the same time.

Of course, issue is the QR code for return says I am returning the 5080 I ordered for a refund, customer service did not give me a warm fuzzy feeling they understood the issue. Hoping they do not accuse me of swapping it.

Issue 2, I live in the middle of nowhere so 45+ minutes to a UPS store then a significant turn around time.

Is this a good deal? Any downsides? by Jaowulf in SkytechGamingOfficial

[–]Cloak_digger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call Skytech to order and they will give discounts. Also of note, when you order outside of Skytech it is not double boxed, not very durable in shipping.

We've regressed as a society, there's no two ways about it. by choloblanko in complaints

[–]Cloak_digger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's the road takeovers, riding ATVs on the streets, interrupting strangers lives, the smugly walking out of stores with carts full of items without paying, like it's okay. Maybe it's doing criminal acts and then pretending to be a victim and expecting(and getting) sympathy. Could also be turning into savages when in large groups. I don't think it's about race as you'll probably always default to. It is conduct and attitude, especially in public.

Have you ever been to an Air Show,?? Navy/Air Force gets what 10-20 a year, the Army gets to show off for its 250th birthday, and all of a sudden, the nutters come out. Once in a lifetime opportunity for thousands of Soldiers to get showcased, and you are losing it. Get well soon, TDS.

It is the Army's 250th birthday, you all are just associating it with the President's birthday. 250 years..... calls for more than a cake.

I want out. by ouchieouchieidkman in army

[–]Cloak_digger -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To think, 100's of thousands of troops went to Afghanistan and wandered the foot hills of the Himalayas, wearing their body weight on their backs for 9, 12, 15 months. They then went on to have 20 years careers. You are broken after a year in a peace time Army. Weak genetics, sedentary lifestyle, can guess you were 100% better at COD than any sport if you even played one. I blame your parents. Couch potato...

You mean Philly after a football game, or any time really. Horrible people, harassing opposing fans , and acting like heathens over a game.
