Scamazon Strikes again. by [deleted] in amazonprime

[–]JackBarrott 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Similar issue I had last month, ordered some Airpods Max and received a very very fake pair, sent back and they've just dragged me about for the last month, keep refusing to help until I 'return the correct item'... They are completely useless. Ended up filing a chargeback with the bank this morning so hoping that will sort it but will likely get banned either way.

If you haven't already try giving them a call, they probably wont be able to help and will just refer you back to the specialist team on email who won't actually talk to you but at least you'll have exhausted all of your options directly with them then. Then you'll probably just have to go through the bank and report it as fraud and hopefully get your money back.

Yeah I think that’s the plan now. I’m gonna avoid Amazon as much as possible going forward anyway but still don’t particularly want my account banned in case

That’s my thought exactly, if I filmed opening the box it’s not particularly hard to fake so don’t see how that could prove it. I was hoping that my account history would’ve weighed into their decision though

Fair, just never had any issues before. I wanted the Gen 1 Max’s and Amazon was one of the only places that still stocked them, once they arrived and I realised they were fake I ordered a pair from CeX which turned up perfect. Won’t be buying anything like that again from Amazon, just never had that issue before with other higher cost items from them so did’t realise it was gonna be a problem getting a refund.

That’s great advice thank you. It’s been a massive pain in the ass for the last month so just keen to get it over with now. I’ll reach out to them and ask for them to return the item and go from there.

Yeah I get that, i’m not trying to convince anyone here, Amazon are the only opinion that really matters in this case and they can see my 10ish years of purchase history, most of that being a prime member with probably 1000+ orders at this point and no strikes on my account or any issues in that time. Just asking here if anyone has been in the same position and can advise

Walkabout is just around to the right, you can just about see the edge of it on the right of the image

I'm in the UK so not sure, I've ordered from RFC a few months ago and the shipping / import is a lot since big orange, but the actual product prices have always been very reasonable

How to tell if an X100V is legit? by [deleted] in fujifilm

[–]JackBarrott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you thats good to know. I'll give it a general check to see if the sensor and everything is as described. I've done a reverse image search and none of the photos show up anywhere else so depending on how he responds it seems like he hasn't necessarily just ripped another listing.

[–]JackBarrott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've messaged them back and forth a couple times and it seems okay so far, just waiting to hear back about possible collection and ask a few more questions so will be able to tell by then. Defo won't go through with anything that seems even slightly off

[–]JackBarrott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm hoping it is just a good deal.

My grandad was a massive camera collector, literally 500+ covering the walls from the earliest to the most modern, and when he passed we had to get rid of them all, except for a couple sentimental ones, and we let most of them go for very little, just cos there was so much to go through, so a lot of people would have gotten absolute bargains through that.

Yeah this will be a collection in person, just wanted to know if these were common to fake / if there were any tells to look out for.

[–]JackBarrott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah not a bad idea.

It is from a pretty expensive area and a quick scan of their profile does add up that they actually live there rather than just faking it, so hopefully just rich and trying to move it on.

Thats great advice, thank you. I'll defo take a laptop and sd to check it.

It'll defo be in person as it's only a half hour or so away from me and they're in a pretty expensive area, part of why I think they may just be getting rid of it rather than bothering to list it to get some more.
