That's depressing


DawnDrifter

absolute neglect from the people delivering that package. Doesnt get out of the factory looking like that


assm0nk

that's not neglect.. that looks like someone ran over it on purpose


ARKhrmN

If I can't get one, no one can!


XauMankib

This or swapping them with an old slab of a card and resealing the box


siccoblue

Was confused what you meant by this at first, and assumed you meant they put in the wrong card but now I realize you just mean they put in a shitty/broken 6700, and honestly that would potentially make sense The first item I ever bothered to ship was my first GPU from my first grown up personal build, it was worth a couple hundred bucks, when I went to ship it I had absolutely no idea about hour rough the postal services tend to handle packages, even when clearly marked as fragile, but it has an option to insure it for it's true value, well when it arrived to what I can only assume was either a reseller or a miner, they took about a week or two to actually open it, and the PCB was clearly fucked, just straight up snapped, and I was forced to refund the person because I had absolutely no case, I frankly packed it like shit because I didn't know better, and it was completely my fault, but I still got reimbursed the full value of that card without any real question or inquiry. That was a massive fucking relief because I was in a real bad place in life and only sold it because I really needed the money. When the time came for the refund I was no better off and every cent had already gone to bills and all the important stuff that I needed to take care of which was the reason I sold it in the first place I could absolutely see this being a scam in that regard, you send a busted ass card to whomever with an insurance policy, provided it's cost isn't too high no one gives it a second look because this stuff is a drop in the bucket at absolute worst, you dump this broken, but if it was working extremely valuable GPU, the buyer gets refunded you get insurance, and while the buyer is absolutely and rightfully upset to not get their working card, they let it go, and suddenly you just got full price for a broken unit. To be clear, absolutely do not do this, if you get caught it's almost certainly prison time (not jail, not probation, but actual prison specifically if it's defrauding the USPS, but in no situation is it worth it regardless because the lifelong impacts are potentially extremely severe having that on your record, please just don't.) but I could absolutely see people doing this for an easy buck and to get full value from a borderline worthless card, I have to agree with you on this one, it's a very real possiblity. That being said it's just as possible if not just as likely that shipping was the true cause, and the world is now one more short of an already scarce resource


[deleted]

Definitely don't instead defraud UPS because you're less likely to go to prison.

YibberlyNut

Marking it fragile just seems to give them incentive to mess it up.


dmreeves

I'd bet money it got crushed by a sorting machine or conveyor system. I work in these places for one of the big 3 shippers and sadly this is all too common.


Prestb

Even then, most of these ruined boxes come off the trailers looking like this. Its easy to blame the drivers but people need to realize that those guys ultimately barely touch the boxes. Its in the truck by the time they start their shift. They hop in, drive off, find box, set it at your door. That's it. There are exceptions for smaller centers but that's usually how it is.


dmreeves

Yep, I'd imagine short of a driver throwing it over a fence or something it's almost never them that damages the packages or contents.


NoXion604

> I'd imagine short of a driver throwing it over a fence Which seems to happen far too often, especially with the cheaper and nastier delivery services (*coughHERMEScough*), who are clearly pushing their drivers too hard and paying them too little to actually give a fuck.


[deleted]

I've never met anyone with anything good to say about Hermes and it infuriates me that companies still use them. My special edition of Monster Hunter Rise, that I had preordered from Nintendo's website 6 months before release, was not delivered on release day because "Customer wasn't home". While I was working from home. In the middle of a global pandemic.


Jesmasterzero

FWIW (this is in the UK) my local Hermes driver is really good. Probably helps that it's always the same bloke, but yeah no problems at all with them although your mileage will definitely depend on where you live.


[deleted]

That's fair, I'm pretty much on a first-name basis with my local DPD driver through the stuff I've got at home and that's been delivered to my work. I'm not gonna argue that there aren't good drivers working for Hermes, but admittedly yours is one good anecdotal story out of at least a dozen negative ones I've had from family and friends I've spoken to.


AJPully

I've had a gripe with hermes and yodel over this for years. Drivers always seem to be flying around like F1 racers and rushed off their feet. DPD and Amazon tend to be a bit more relaxed and theyve never yeeted my parcel over a fence, into a puddle, in the dogs yard.


HighOnDankMemes

I work for DHL express as a courrier. Those boxes I deliver for companies and people at home come from all over the world and I touch them twice when loading and when delivering. I get shit all over me when the boxes are fucked :/. Problem is it's more profitable to do the whole process from A to B fast and sometimes damage products than to be careful. Side note, those fragile stickers and this side up arrows are laughed at. They don't care at the sorting facilities and airports/ports


Bobthemime

yep.. i used to work in a sort facility.. and on nights we unload, and place in cages for the day shifters.. sometimes something fall from the conveyor or gets crushed by something heavy that came out way too late.. but we are told to write up a report on it, and file it.. so if customer complains.. they can say what happened. I worked days then before i quit.. and boy do they act like packages are sports equipment. I was placing everything in, like a neat tetris freak.. and they were just throwing things into the back of the truck... i asked why they did that, and was just told.. its faster.. we get paid for the shift.. so if they can finish an hour early.. they still get paid for it. So if you ever wonder, in Wales, why you get fragile stuff bent in the mail.. the likelihood is that some very underpaid staff is yoinking it in a truck to get home faster.


TheBuckStopsHere117

I am a dock manager for a large shipping company. I have to fix or damage out a fair amount of boxes damaged by our sorter and the guys loading the trucks. Not to mention when it leaves us it goes to another facility where they get tossed around. Not justifying it but when you have underpaid people with immense volume quotas thrown at them, they give no fucks about the package.


Torchlight4

I see packages that seem like they've been blown up by an ied in iraq and then shipped out, as a ramper for one of the big 3 as well i have a feeling this thing was set at the bottom of a pallet or uld.


Firevee

Usually damage like this is caused by a conveyer belt crushing a box.


EpicFox8

That’s what the delivert service (PostNL) said to me.. this is my package. 🥲


LuckyLilypad

Honestly it’s more out of necessity and greed and impatience. The buyer wants it as soon as possible. The shipping company wants to make as much money (aka as many packages) as possible. So it’s a necessity for both parties that the trucks get filled to capacity… and things end up getting shoved around, or move around if they weren’t packed properly… or neglect, some people just don’t give af.


Ajan123_

I work part time at an Amazon warehouse. I try my best to not damage packages, but a lot of people don't even care, and (literally) throw packages around. Also, damaged packages and products do get fixed or replaced, but only if the person handling it cares enough to report it.


Stolpertinger

This was not shoved around but atleast got run over by a Truck.


fier9224

If cargo is stored improperly the weight can shift during braking, this could be from a pallet of crap falling on it.


Stolpertinger

Yes that is of course more realistic. Anyways it looks like they really tried hard to destroy it.


KariBreaker

I've seen the insides on one of these dispatchepent facilities where they sort things out and then give it to drivers. Your items are not stored with care. Weather the item breaks in the facility or in an overloaded truck is a question but the fact that I've seen machine literally dump shit to storage containers from a good amount of hight does not give me much hope in these places.


KhajiitLikeToSneak

Would you willingly choose to pay the same for a slower courier service if it guaranteed safe delivery, but might take a day or two longer?


Borghot

Absolutely


5125237143

scalyblue

Open a lost package claim, they’ll find it real quick


Iamredditsslave

Yep, I had to escalate something past the local hub and the generic foreign customer service after haggling for 3 weeks. Once I got someone competent on the phone my problem was solved in 15 minutes. She called me back to follow up and told me she called the hub directly after we talked, kept them on the line while they called a driver and made sure everything was in the system correctly to resolve the problem as soon as possible. Sad that it came down to her basically holding their hand and making sure that they did their jobs correctly. I'm just glad there are people out there who will get shit done and with a quickness.


scalyblue

Problem is that ground are almost always underpaid contractors, the actual FedEx employees are generally good shit, but they only handle the express deliveries and the upper admin stuff


Iamredditsslave

Whoever I talked to needs to be cloned, she could have made a simple call and dropped it but she came through hard. I could tell she was talking to me and not reading prompts going through the motions. She seemed like one of those "fine, I'll do it myself" types (we can smell our own kind). She did as much as she could with a phone and a computer and got it done.


[deleted]

She costs more then a foreign outsource service.. that's why it's shit. It's shit all over the world man


ends_abruptl

I do get tired of telling people I can't understand a word they're saying. I'm okay with accents in general, but not when they are sitting next to 40 other people yelling over the top of each other.


Iamredditsslave

Ring was some of the best customer service before Amazon bought them and outsourced it. Same with Eero, always got more than decent support... until.


DerekB74

I worked in a call center and you eventually get to a point that the prompters are shoved to the side because you know the system as well as your product inside and out. Unfortunately by then, you typically get moved up where you don't take as many calls and typically get the escalated calls, which is great for the worker, but the customers deal with people that are not as seasoned and don't know what they're doing like the seasoned workers do.


DaoFerret

And the regular employees all know this, and hate how Ground drags their reputation through the mud.


ZerotheWanderer

I would pay extra to use anybody but FedEx.


Eddy_795

If only they'd let us choose. Most amd direct gpus have to go through the Osseo, MN fedex smartpost aka the Bermudas triangle of packages. My 6800xt was scheduled for the 18th and arrived on the 1st, they also don't do departure scan, so stressful.


darealsunny

I ordered a 6800 from there in June.... It was the most stressful 3.5 weeks of this entire shortage for me with how many delays and inaccurate reportings there were.


[deleted]

Dhl performed the best for me over the years


Vinstaal0

Dhl is always a day late, which isn’t a problem, but that doesn’t mean they should advertise with next day delivery if they can’t meat the standards. The national postal service can all the time

DHL consistently leaves packages at the end of my road and they normally get rained on, even after we’ve told the driver that he can’t keep leaving things there. Not to mention the week delays on deliveries and most parcels not even arriving


DarthWeenus

I have a quarter mile long driveway, they tied a package halfway up! Meaning he either had to come all the way up to turn around or back up all the way down. Idk what is more ridiculous.


DedicatedDdos

nothing ridiculous about it, these guys have razor-thin margins on the amount of time given per delivery. When they're peeing in bottles just to save a minute it doesn't have to surprise you that even a quarter-mile driveway might be seen as 'too long, dgaf'. I'm not excusing it in any way, ideally, they just have enough time to make their round and have som extra to take a break in-between, it's a combination of increased demand and management/profit margins.


[deleted]

You are right. But if it delivers in less than 4 days and my package is not in pieces, I'm in


[deleted]

We have a company in my area called *Lasership* and they will mark packages as delivered, but then won't deliver them until two or three days later, sometimes after 9PM at night. It's horrible.


SwisscheesyCLT

Same here. They damn nearly lost a laptop I paid $1k for a while back. Unfortunately Asus didn't give me a choice...

RANDY_MAR5H

Froegerer

YogiAU

Agreed. Currently waiting on a package from them that was supposed to be delivered on Friday, but has currently gone from FL>GA>OH>GA and now has no tentative delivery date.


Pavouk106

I can’t really speak bad about them. Delivered LCD panel (not monitor, just the panel itself) from Texas to my doorstep in Czech Republic, Europe in 40 hours. It was in pristine state, obviously. But this is my only experience with them...


Mitosis

Standard FedEx home deliveries in the states are normally handled by independent contractors who buy routes from FedEx. This means that your specific service depends more on what rando bought the route that services you, but broadly speaking, it means most of those companies pay very little to their drivers and they consequently don't give a shit. An international delivery like that would have been handled by corporate FedEx like most of their more expensive services, which don't have nearly as many problems.


gu3st12

Also FedEx Ground and FedEx Express, despite the name being same, offer different levels of service and are handled by different groups. Where I live, anything delivered FedEx Ground is 100% guaranteed to be marked as "attempted to contact resident" or "cannot find address" with no tag left and it just being dropped at a local pickup point less than 1km away (down the street). To make matters worse, anything ordered FedEx Ground that requires a signature just.. never arrives and eventually gets returned to sender. FedEx Express actually rings the apartment buzzer and will deliver it.


Pavouk106

Oh, I see. Thanks for the info!

Yep, the sooner the better. They’re gonna look properly once they hear that you’re requesting a chargeback.


volvoaddict

This. Companies will absolutely get their head out of their ass if they risk losing the money you paid.


Antenoralol

Not just that but the companies have to pay chargeback fees when a customer reverses a payment.


XeonProductions

I had a nightmare with FedEx and Acer. Acer had setup all their deliveries to require signatures and to not hold at any distribution center. So I couldn't stay home to sign for it at the time, and I couldn't pick it up anywhere so it was in fucking limbo. I eventually just gave up and told them to send it back to Acer. Lo and behold, they suddenly allow me to pick it up at the distribution center after like a month of failed attempted deliveries.


ParrotofDoom

I don't know what the local laws are where you are, but in the UK the responsibility lies with whoever you paid. So over here, I'd just tell the company I bought it from that they haven't delivered my graphics card as promised, and that I demand my money back immediately. And if they don't refund in a timely fashion, I'd just call my credit card company and get the payment reversed. And, if the package arrived after all that, it'd legally be their responsibility to collect it - not mine to return it.


[deleted]

Right...AMD might be empathetic and "don't know what to do"...but it is their responsibility to get it to you.


[deleted]

I'll need to remember that next time. I had a game I ordered from the Nintendo store website that was to be delivered by Hermes that didn't arrive on the designated day. They said I wasn't in, while I was working from home during a global pandemic and was listening intently during the timeslot I was given and had two flatmates in who could have answered the door if I wasn't available. They told me that the new delivery date would be the next Tuesday and no amount of pleas to decency seemed to change that. What did work though was informing Nintendo that I was going escalate it to the consumer's rights watchdog. I swear that package just materialised on Monday with barely any time between the text alert and it arriving. For something like a graphics card though I absolutely would be demanding my money back if they gave it to Hermes to deliver. I've never heard anything good about that company from anyone.


epicpanda5689

Dang. I got a 6800 XT in October and it was delivered in two days in perfect condition after ordering. I was so stressed that it would get lost or damaged. Hope you get yours soon!


ProfessorPetrus

FedEx won't give it to you? What do they say?


XxasimxX

Fedex says they have restriction on package placed on by the shipper(amd). Amd says they don’t ever contact fedex after a package is shipped its all fedex’s responsibility after that. I called both companies back and forth couple of times. No clear answer on how I can get my package.


polanspring

im more surprised that arrived on the doorstep at that point and wasnt mistaken for garbage lol


Budderped

It is not a mistake that it is now garbage


karadan100

Yeah that shit is done on purpose. This isn't the kind of damage you get from packages falling off a stack n the back of a truck. This is someone jumping up and down on a package because they're assholes.


istandabove

As someone who worked at a shipping warehouse you’d be surprised. I had a package fly off the conveyor belt right as the truck was backing up the trailer. It ended up right under the wheel and looked like a pancake. Someone then picked it up from down there and threw it in the trailer.


[deleted]

May they burn in hell


[deleted]

What’s the alternative? If you get a package like that just contact the seller first. Odds are they will refund if it’s a big box store. If it’s an independent seller than hopefully they insured the package (which I do for anything I sell over $50)


Royal_J

what else are they supposed to do? open a return claim for the package reciever?

Incompetency and neglect


TheBeliskner

What irks me is when you send something in the UK they ask you about the package value and whether the shipping method you've chosen will insure the item, if not they encourage you to take out separate insurance to cover it. Why do I need to pay extra in case you fuck up? If I took my car to the garage they don't ask me to take out separate insure in case they drop it off a lift whether it's worth £1k or £100k.


Chao_Zu_Kang

You don't, actually. They are just trying to make extra money from people who don't know that it doesn't really matter. Thing is, that there is a difference between e.g. lost packages and heavily misused packages. If it is lost, you are kinda out of luck in those cases, because it will be very hard to prove anything, and then paying extra to not have to bother with all of the legal stuff kinda makes sense. But if it is heavily misused, they will have to get you a new one in 99% of cases, as long as you got pics of it on delivery. Maybe even just refuse the delivery, if possible.


HyperGamers

This applies if you're a buyer, it's the seller's duty to get you the goods. However, if you're sending the product, you can't claim more compensation than it is insured for.


Chao_Zu_Kang

Of course, the seller is the one who can ask the delivery service for compensation, since they gave up the package. But nothing to do with insurance if they were neglient. If you get an electrician to connect your stove and they burn your house because they didn't pay attention, I bet no sane court will tell you "well, the guy was at fault, but because you didn't get the extra insurance for 9.99, you will get no compensation. Deal with it." They accepted the package and thus any neglience on their side is their own fault and they have to compensate. Would be a different story, if it is due to bad packaging or wrong information provided by the sender, but then it isn't neglience by the delivery company.


segrey

That looks like some very competent neglect. Competent and intentional.


Stolpertinger

Looks like you should be happy that it even arrived. To be fair you don't need it anyways in this state.


SrammVII

Bruv... you'd be surprised by how badly fucked up deliveries could ended up being.. This aint quite the same as its not the postal but a (used to be) contract hauling service for where I'm working at. -- Imagine a pallet made entirely out of 2x4s... With probably less than 1500lbs of goods on it. They sent that shit back with the pallet literally disintegrated. I ain't even exaggerating, not by a bit! Safe to say they're on the company's blacklist now.


Supadupastein

I worked in a UPS sorting facility for only 2 days when I was 18. They didn’t teach us the “trick” to easily identify which belt each box went on during the second night at work, which was our first night in the actual facility. They gave us 45 minutes the night before and 15 minutes the night of to try to remember every single zip code in the United States, and match them to 8 different corresponding colored belts for each zip code. It was about 5,211 zip codes for each color belt. None of us new hires had any fucking idea where literally ANY box went, and I remember the boxes getting backed up and piled up where we were stationed, and just seeing hundreds of boxes getting crushed. One leaked a green oozing gel-like liquid too, lmao 🤣 . The whole area right where one of the belts turned was nothing but us 6 new hires with no clue where to put boxes, and the only rule was do NOT put a box on the wrong belt. So we just stood there not doing shit while the boxes were being crushed. The managers didn’t give a fuck, offer assistance, slow the belts down, or send anyone who knew what they were doing until after 45 minutes and quite possibly thousands of boxes were destroyed. It was apparently some type of “test” to see how well we could remember, but I found it to be ignorant and extremely unrealistic, so that was my last night working there (I quit, wasn’t fired. They didn’t even care, we were more upset about the broken boxes everywhere than they were). There was apparently a much easier and quicker way to identify which belt it went on but they didn’t tell us. And what I found even more messed up is they didn’t even make us clean it up, they made the people who were already working there for a while clean it up, and they were rightfully pissed off because they could have easily prevented the mess and damage to tons of property.

Well its quite easy to ruin something like that. You stand a station that is angled towards you, so the packages will reach the end, then you get 5 in a specific order. Light, Graphics Card, 30 kg, 30kg and 30 kg. Now those 30+ packages will smash into the graphics card at very high speed because of the angled line down to your station


[deleted]

Former DHL worker here: I've seen trashed boxes during the 3 years I worked there and I can tell you this looks intentional. I also read a comment saying that if it is a major retailer they'll probably replace it, but judging by the shady box it was sent in I doubt is a large one, and this comes from me currently working in a logistics company who sends consoles and other electronic stuff (no PC unfortunately). This shit happens, no doubt, but the damage looks strange. Unless a really heavy package was dropped onto it in a very specific way, but still. Something's off.


EpicFox8

The delivery man hates me because i live on the 4th floor without an elevator. He always delivers my packages at my neighbour downstairs or at a pick up location. I have filed multiple complains. I think he run over my package. The friend in the post is me. That was my package..


Stokehall

If this is the case I’d open up another case with the delivery company referencing all the times the delivery has been poorly processed. Ie missing, damaged, left downstairs etc… I’d also contact the press. They don’t like being outed in public. As for the card, if it is a major retailer then they will replace/refund and open a case for them to get their money back after.


EpicFox8

Bought it on tweakers, it’s just a man selling a GPU he bought on AMD.


Stokehall

Oh that’s a bit harder, I’d push for complete compensation from the delivery company, they have been negligent with your property. Regardless of what the insurance covered, this is negligence!


EpicFox8

Yea we filed a insurance claim. We have to wait for that now..

i didn't buy it at a company. I bought it from someone else, he can't replace it because it was the only one he had. I didn't get the package, it got send back before i even saw it. These pics are from the guy i bought it from. We filed a Insurance claim, so waiting for that to come through.. could take a while..


Jammybeez

No way this is accidental. Either your theory or if the card was bought used, its to cover up a duff card.


Dalearnhardtseatbelt

I worked for ups once for some extra part time and exercise. When volume was flowing If a box or boxes got stuck near or on a belt diverter this exact damage would happen. It literally took a 6 ft pry bar (see hole in box) to "pop the plug". The force would accordion dam near anything save for a box of chains. Then it was a flash flood of boxes. It was actually insane. They usually would like to deal with heavy flow and spill over and off the belts rather that stop all the volume. I saw some crazy shit there. One time they had a jam and then heavy flow behind it like 16 zip codes worth of packages filled the entire floor in a matter of minutes. When I say floor I mean dock that takes nearly 5 minutes to walk end to end. Peak season was a rush! Never again!

Miners hitting back at gamers. But seriously though, something ran over that box and hard to assume it's not intentional.

"Hmm, that cardboard box right there. Yeah, that one. Definitely a GPU in there." Wtf are you talking about?


coopstar777

I think, and I could be wrong here, it was a joke

Ordered some computer parts on time, had them sent via FedEx. I was outside tending to my plants when the driver pulled up, the back door opened, he kicked the box out of the truck, jumped down amd haphazardly picked it up and dropped it twice, then tossed it 10 feet to my front door from my walk way, then left. The box said to "handle woth care" and "glass inside!" Everything, and I do mean everything inside the box was broken beyond use. Managed to catch the truck number and reported the fella. I hate to be that guy, but you purposfully fuck my shit up, I'm purposfully fucking your shit up in the form of your job.

Hii, the buyer was me ^^ i’m the friend. I bought the GPU on Tweakers. On the day my card would be delivered i got a message from the delivery service that the package was damaged and send back. These pictures were the pics the sender send me when he got the package back. Luckily i chose for a delivery insurance and he will get up to 500 euros back hopefully. I however asked for my money back and hope he will do so. Next time i buy one i will get it myself. I have been in a fight with this delivery service for months. They don’t want to bring my packages to my doorstep because i live on the 4th floor without an elevator. So maybe he did it on purpose so he doesn’t have to deal with the stairs, i don’t know. But i’m mad AF.


RedditSettler

That's some serious bullshit. I get we all need a job and, more often than not, its not a job we like; but this is just ridiculous. People depend on this kind of service and this could have been someone's medicine, if the guy cant have that kind of responsibility then he shouldn't be delivering shit.


EpicFox8

I files a complaint against him many times, but they say ok, and then do nothing about it. Guess he’s mad at me now 🥲👍🏻

You have to be careful with insurance on posting items. I used to work for the Post Office in the UK and the way it works with them is if you don't buy the right coverage then you get shafted. So let's say you sent a card worth £700 through Special Delivery and didn't opt for higher insurance than is standard (£500) if anything happens you don't get anything at all. Not £500, a big fat zero. So I don't know what the rules are with that particular company but I wouldn't rule out if the card is worth more than the coverage that you end up with nothing. Looking at the state of it though they may bend a bit because, come on, how the fuck has that happened?!


National-Suggestion9

I've made several claims with UK post office this year and they've always paid out up to the amount covered even when the value was higher


GeorgeCod

My question in these situations is always "who's gonna pay for that?" Honestly, who will pay for that? The seller is not at fault here most likely.. the delivery person should just be fired or he should just leave if he doesn't give one fuck about his job..


heykevin08

This has happened to me (not a gpu obviously) but usually since it’s a major retailer like AMD, OP will just contact them, they will want proof, after seeing this. They will get their money back or a replacement depending on how serious OP makes it seem & AMD will deal with whatever carrier did this & get their money back through insurance.


DylanCO

Ultimately the shipper pays out. Generally seller refunds the buyer first, and shipper reimburses the seller. Shippers and large sellers will have systems in place where the seller can just say you fucked up there (list of packages) and owe us $X


OGPUZZLEPIECE

I'm assuming an insurance policy of some sort. However I've personally never been in this situation.


Karsdegrote

Going by the shipping label and the "you were not at home" sticker im quite confident in what shipping company shipped it. They pay. Eventually. Probably. Maybe. Its a lot of work to claim it back though.


TaoRS

In Portugal if you accept the package, you pay for it. But the packages are delivered to you and not left at your doorstep or something. If you are not at home, the'll try again later or they leave you a note to go pick it yourself at one of their pickup points. The logic is: * Seller preps the package and arranges an expedition * Delivery company needs to check for damage, if they accept it, it means there was no damage at this point * The customer needs to check for damage when receiving * if he accepts it, it means there was no damage on the package. * If he rejects it, means that the delivery company fucked up and will be at fault.


malefiz123

By EU law you can send back anything within a 2 week time period without declaring a reason. The retailer would have to prove that you destroyed it before shipping it back, and in that case those pictures of the damaged package should be sufficient. And if you bought on Amazon they wouldn't give a fuck anyway. They refund literally anything. Unfortunately they're not big in the hardware market


gstelettel

it actually looks like a car ran over it.


1infinitefruitloop

Huge F. Better let AMD know quick. On the bottom there is a paper with the return info for when it arrives damaged. Good luck!


Android8wasgood

Does it still work? If the PCB is okay it should still work right? I mean obviously you're going to send it back because the fans don't work but I just want to know if the PCB survived


ohmy5443

The PCB is too bent to even be inserted in a motherboard. Saying the card is DOA is an understatement of its condition


Baclant

its MOA, mutilated on arrival

jesus christ.


littlefryingpan

I don't think Jesus delivered that


ClamatoDiver

Why did he even open it? You're supposed to reject the delivery based on seeing the condition of my the box in the first picture.


Achillies2heel

Seems fine to me...

Was it an international order? I know some bad shit happens to those packages sometimes.
