The restocking fee for this kind of return is pretty standard, and other companies charge it too. So I think Amazon simply forgot to update the rule on the website, and you got lucky this time.

@eyehear10 20 дней назад

I've had Amazon refund me AND THEN charge me again saying that they never received the return, when I had UPS confirmation and also Amazon's own website's confirmation. Talking to support was useless so I had to perform a chargeback with my bank. Save all evidence against Amazon.

I don't understand why Amazon allows 1 year to return an item. With this policy, you can pretty much use the computer for free since you are getting a full refund. That's silly.

@schizofennec 19 дней назад

because they paid half of what theyre selling it for and sold it to you for double that, so if someone does keep it they've made bank, and many people will eat the $350 charge meaning they gain that too each time. its like a loss leader product, yes some people will return but some will be so happy they keep it and they milk those people, what have you got to lose with a refund policy like that, right? that's exactly how they get you.

I once returned a MacBook Air M1 for a full refund because the speakers were acting up and driving me crazy. Soon after, I got a pretty stern email telling me that I was returning too much stuff and that they might block my account. So I checked and it turned out that I had ordered and kept far more stuff than I had returned - I definitely wasn't a customer who was causing them a loss. The stuff I did return was a laptop sleeve that was advertised with the wrong dimensions, and a lavalier microphone that didn't recognise my interface. I received this correspondence from Amazon three times. The third time, I moved all my infrastructure out of AWS, where I had a business account, and never ordered from Amazon again. I'm in the EU, by the way.

@peterparker2068 3 дня назад

I am probably sure there are some people that abused the system. That might be an email response from a bot. Assuming you talk to the right people they might look at your account they will realize that they wouldn't want to lose you as a customer. Cost might be a prime example of great customer service. My father had a massage chair that had problem after eight years of use. He was still able to return the chair for a partial refund. The rep at Costco looked at my father's account and saw that he had been a member for decades by now and that he spends a lot of money at Costco. That is what I call customer service.

@GordonCato 20 дней назад

I had a similar return situation with Amazon. Mine wasn’t a laptop though. It was two toddler bad mattresses that somehow both got lost in shipping. (Seperate tracking numbers) I had to go through the same type of phone call that you did and get hold of a supervisor to finally get a refund. My email said “Thank you for returning your item, your refund has been processed” or something very similar, even though I had never received the items to return. Returns at Amazon are getting very strange compared to the past.

@AZisk 20 дней назад

Yes, but in comparison to most other stores, their shipping is much better. Which doesn't say much about the other stores. The only consistently better experience I have is with B&H when I shop for gear there.

@GordonCato 20 дней назад

I agree. I have been seeing more “lost” shipments than I have in the past, but that seems to be more of a UPS issue. I also get an excellent experience from B&H.

@songsan807 17 дней назад

Glad your transaction got a good ending. Around 2018 I purchased a Surface Book for my son for about $1500 and it was suppose to be new. After 3 days the battery no longer charges so I tried to return it. The return have 3 different addresses and warn that if you send it to the WRONG address where they do not receive it then you will NOT get your refund. So I re-read the directions multiple times, make sure the right address is there. Check the tracking number a few times a day. Even though the item said it was delivered to the seller's mailbox as long as they do not get the package, Amazon considered that as not delivered yet. And since the seller have "NOT" receive the item, no refund can be issue. After the 30 days is up, then the seller said they never got the item and the return window is closed. Amazon wouldn't do anything after talking to 3 different reps. Had to get my credit card company involved. After my CC company started the dispute process, then Amazon pick up my case and refund me. 60 Days of stress. That is why I would not do expensive purchases like that again at Amazon.

I ordered a product from Amazon that arrived but was the wrong product and because it was a cream rather than a spray I was told the item was not returnable. I told the rep that the product was in a sealed plastic pack that was not even opened as I saw right away we had the wrong product. At the time of order it said product could be returned however when I went to return it it came up as non-returnable. I escalated and they did a similar refund as your macbook. Label for return with no-refund and refund separately to credit card. It worked out but I too spent almost 45 minutes talking to various representatives. There is the occasional glitch.

@christianbaer2897 20 дней назад

Thing is, that Amazon has something in the neighbourhood of a gazillion systems up and running for their platform. It can happen, that one component may show you "you are eligible for refund until November" whereas the system for the poor person at the phone line, says something different, entirely. This is what having a (micro)service for every possible thing can give you. Headaches... lots of headaches...

@shapelessed 20 дней назад

I once worked for a company, they had about 20 different microservices. First week I joined, I patched 3 different 0-click RCE exploits, one of them with shell escalation... Microservices are great when done great, with good balancing or a broker server to distribute load, but, sadly, most of the time they're done terribly.

@@christianbaer2897 Wrong. In 90% of scenarios, ALL payments in general will be handled by a single service. All you need is to adapt whatever library you're using to your own rest api to do some checks and auth and you're done. Having this break is either deliberate, or flat out lack of brains. Considering Amazon's UX is that of a random website from 90's is even more of an argument behind malice.

@christianbaer2897 17 дней назад

@@shapelessed The payment was not the problem. He could easily have gotten money. The problem was, that it was not the right amount of money and this is where the multiple systems come into place. Even the customer center person could not see the right amount, although Alex could. That alone should tell you, that there is more than one service needed for a refund. Obviously, there is more than one service needed for a buy as well, but it is really unlikely, that something will change the price or add shipping costs the moment when you click "add to basket". This probably isn't malice. Amazon does not tend to be malicious to there customers. Only to employees.

@frigginnobody 19 дней назад

In India, amazon now had changed their return policy in such a way that you can only return the item via the manufacturer, meaning that if I buy a playstation I have to go to a sony store, but most of the time, the manufacturers won’t help if the seller shipped you a damaged item(which happens with a lot of sellers because of amazon’s bad quality checks) So amazon becoming more and more greedy now leading to a lack of trust in their service.

Recently purchased a part for my CPAP machine from Amazon. It was damaged in shipping, but when I tried to get a replacement everything on the website said “this item is not eligible for returns or replacements” which, you know, should be different if the item didn’t get here in one piece. Finally I did the chat with support, which for me was a chatbot. The chatbot gave me a refund almost immediately. The part cost about $30, so I feel like there’s probably a dollar threshold that the chatbot is allowed to go ahead and do a refund.

is it possible the machine price was dropped since apple realeased the M3 series of macbook pro's around the same time you ordered and the system was refering to the list price for the item rather than the price you paid and then when they tried to look at it on the back end, the system didn't know what was up with the money delta so just automatically chalked it up to a restocking fee without checking your return window?

Helpful. Right, for big purchase like these that absolutely need best quality, whether refurbished or new, I avoid 3rd party sellers like Ebay. And Amazon's quality and trustful level have dropped since many new sellers, possibly from Ebay, have joined Amazon. Definitely official Apple Refurbished Store is best, but really a lot less choices of newer lineups. Difficult market. I bet the PC computers' market has even more divided and not-so-trustworthy stores.

I am also looking at Amazon for a nice refurbished MBP and I want to know if you had any issues with the product or just did not need it anymore. 3. If I go with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD and install Windows on Virtual Machine do you think it is going to be okay? 4. I love working with .Net and do you think Microsoft actually put work on Apple's side or support for MacBook users? Thank you.

@Belanthiel 17 дней назад

The entire M2 line is a lot faster than the M1's with the exception of drive speeds, which in day to day use you won't even notice. Definitely go for 16GB of ram, and no less than 512GB SSD, because the 256GB drive access is horrible. You would also run out of space too fast with the base drive size. The recommendation is to get at least 512GB of drive IN the mac, and purchase a thunderbolt (40GB speed) external M.2 enclosure and extend your storage that way. This setup works incredibly well for me, and allows me to have the storage space I want without paying the Apple premium for it! Microsoft's products have been working quite well for me on Mac, however I don't do .Net development so I cannot definitively speak about that use case. Hope this information helps...

Not sure if some companies suck on refunds. It reminds me of a recent purchase with Samsung. It took so long to process and order and pick up at a local Samsung store, I was waiting for a month. They told me to cancel the order and just reorder. The previous purchase price was a lot cheaper. They said they would refund me the difference for the previous price when the phone was shipped. I ask why they can't just adjust the price and let me pay that price up front. I got tired and just went ahead with the new order. They didn't refund me within the said time. Luckily for some odd reason my previous order actually arrived at the store a week later so I just picked it up and just returned the other phone at the higher price. I hate when companies do that. I think at least at the Apple store they don't do that.

I don't think this is an intentional scam. Seems like Amazon's system is messed up and they don't care enough to fix it

You have a charitable view that they are incompetent and uncaring. My view is that a lot of employees have figured out how to make metrics and bonuses by cheating the customer and then covering their tracks.

Amazon price guarantee policy also doesn't work, I had multiple phone call and they did not respect price guarantee policy whatever I tried

Great video. As far as customer services go, I’ve found Apple and Amazon have the best services by far. This is shocking to me. Amazon is usually very accommodating to customers. I hate how the rep doesn’t have much power to override a flawed system.

Cool video. I think the title is a little heavy-handed, though 😉

sometimes the first agent does not have the resources Amazon will always refund you if you show proof that your refund is less than what was promised under the return window the first agent was good he told you wait for the refund so it is actually proof in your statement that you only received 1300 instead of 17 then he will take that proof of your statement to the supervisor and refund the rest of the amount

Where are you? I’m in Canada and wanted to contact support and return, but I found no way to contact Amazon support..: -_-, no messaging, no calling… when I finally found a link, it goes straight back to just return product, or, 404 dead link…

I don’t think I would call this a scam, it seems like a glitch in their system, glad it worked out.

@k7map 8 дней назад

When high dollar item return problems are this pervasive, its not a system glitch. There is some kind of incentive structure in place motivating Amazon's behaviors.

😆 they did me right in the end - good customer support. it could have been “sorry, it’s not our policy BS”

It took you 48 minutes.... I faced a similar issue but on a Samsung Tab S9, I received an open box and a cheap non brand tablet... it took me 8 months to received my money back, it's not worth discussing that kind of transaction with a person on the other side of the world, and it's worse to pay a prime membership, only to be treated like crap. Amazon is like marriage, the first few years are a honeymoon, not anymore... now is take it or leave it.

What was wrong with the macbook? Why was it returned?

@k7map 8 дней назад

Why the author wanted to do a return is irrelevant. Amazon should not treat its customers like they do. Lets stay away from something approaching victim blaming.

I was thinking about purchasing the laptop. That’s why I asked. You alright? 😂😂
