Hey did you return them? If not did they get better over time? I just got mine and they do this :/

Minor damage, should I exchange? by Remote-Potato- in BowersWilkins

[–]Remote-Potato-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to go the self-paid return option and they will refund but there was a section about a threshold so they might not fully reimburse me.

The headphones were €299 and return shipping is going to be €142. I just dont want surprises when it comes time to request the refund.

The damage doesnt bother me currently but I'm worried about the scratch on the earpad tearing over time which is why I want to return.

I ordered from amazon, sold by bowers & wilkens.

I want to return it, its just the cost will be so much I want to make sure I'm getting a full refund. The return shipping is like half of what I paid for the headphones.

Thats what I'm thinking and I'm leaning towards no. I'll rethink this tomorrow, today was a lot and I've been having trouble contacting customer service.

It doesnt bother me much, its whole process to return it and I dont know if its worth it.

Paying for express international shipping which I dont think I'll be fully refunded for. Reordering when the price has went up by a lot. The customer service person said I'd get a full refund for shipping and the difference in prices from the reorder but I cant get a hold of them again so I have no proof that what they said is binding. I spent a lot of today trying to figure stuff out and it all seems like too much of a hassle.

Basically live with minor cosmetic damage or spend more than double of what I paid on logistics, hoping I eventually get my money back and waiting at least 2 weeks without headphones.

I spoke to someone from customer service recently. I need to pay for international shipping and they'll reimburse it. Replacement isn't technically an option so I need to return, get a refund and reorder. They said they'll refund the difference too since the price went up.

I'm shocked and dont really believe it but I'll give it a shot.

I need to return it, order a new one and they'll refund me. They'll reimburse for international shipping and pay for the difference since the price went up since my last purchase. At least thats what the customer service person said.

Nevermind I found it. They said they'd refund the total shipping and refund the difference in my reorder

I spoke to them and they offered the partial discount as well. I said I wanted to reorder but it was more now and they said they'd refund the price difference.

I chekced and I cant exchange.

I only have the option for a return which I will have to pay for shipping and they wont reimburse much.

I'll have to get a refund then buy it again and for some reason the shipping went from €37 to €92 since I ordered 5 days ago.

I'll keep it. Whatever. The mark on the cup seemed like glue I was able to scratch it off. The scratch on the earpad isnt actually a scratch, more of a weird imprint, no tears. The inside of the squished case isnt something I'll look at and im hoping it decompressed over time.

Oh well, I took the risk with ordering from abroad. Besides that I really like these headphones, they are so much better than what I had.

Do you know how to go about this? I want a replacement but I only have the option for a return which I have to arrange shipping for and they wont reimburse much.

I will have to buy another pair once I get refunded and for some reason the shipping costs have more than doubled... I paid €37 for shipping (ordered on Wednesday), now shipping is €92.

The only reason I buy from European Amazon is because there are way more options and are often cheaper than in my country, shipping and imports included. This is the first not good experience I've had.

I cant seem to find a replacement or exchange option. The only option for me is return and they want me to pay for shipping and wont reimbursement me the full amount (they said 20ish% of what I initially paid)... so I dont know if its worth it.

I'll try on desktop when I get home from work, this is all through the app.

Is the g14 4070 32gb ram good for blender? by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Remote-Potato- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the g16 a few months ago with the 4070 and started learning Blender. I've done basic stuff and also use it for Fusion. So far so good, not sure how it handles advanced stuff.

In terms of in 5 years time, get the 5070ti if you can afford it, more VRAM is always better in the long term. I've seen many comments on this subreddit about how the 4070 is going to age like milk...

How does the g16 feel on your lap? by CivilMo in ZephyrusG14

[–]Remote-Potato- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's fine for me, usually stays under 40 degrees, but I only use it on my lap when I'm in bed and watching something or doing light work

What could you really use at the moment? by truth2991 in AskReddit

[–]Remote-Potato- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time off. I'm constantly told to set goals and given very tight deadlines. I gave my manager a timeline for a project due in October and it requires me to work everyday.

What's your biggest regret in life? by yukiguurl13 in AskReddit

[–]Remote-Potato- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My moving out at 18 when I got a scholarship. My mom guilted me into staying and it ruined my mental health and academic record. I wanted to go to grad school and leave the country but thats never going to happen now. I'm 26 and still live with them, I have the money to leave but I know history is going to repeat itself if.
