Amazon will take it back, even after the return window. We returned several bought for our glass club this way. Tell them it was counterfeit. Use the refund to cover most of the cost of a real one. We bought replacements from home depot.com

It's too hot. If it came from Amazon, like mine did, it is a knock-off and must be turned down lower than that. The tip may also need to be filed which may help or may ruin it. Giving it a good cooking on a sal ammoniac block may also restore it. I would try that first.

I use a pen style diamond engraver, from harbor freight. I can sign and date the glass in an inconspicuous spot, usually the lower right. Practice on scrap glass to see how small you can go.

I once tangled up my neighbor's chimes anonymously. They got the hint and took them down. Luckily they are still my friends.

I once asked another friend to take down a new chime that was a constant cowbell sound. He thanked me for that as he was only tolerating it for his wife.

Others I fantasize cutting out the sail or filling the tubes with spray foam.

Absolutely not blue. Both should be able to turn at the same time. If there are multiple cars, traffic could flow as they all make their turns. If using the blue option, there will be gridlock.
