Yah I wouldn't be as quick to try this return method if they could see a mismatch between box and controller serial numbers.
And yep, Walmart. I don't shoplift and I don't consider return fraud to be theft, but I do genuinely believe it is morally just to shoplift from Walmart. Probably not wise with how loaded up they certainly are with surveillance, but I am all in favor of anyone stealing from that fucking company.
Even if it's just barely out of 1 year warranty?
Impossible to prove. Functionally unenforceable. But, sure, perhaps not technically a loophole.
Nonsense. It's accurately returned as defective. If it's placed back into inventory that's a mistake. No different than the retailer placing a "legal" return due to defect back on the shelf for sale, and that would be obviously fraudulent behavior by the retailer.
Wow, five years. Great job.
If something you bought broke because of shitty design (like stick drift), buy a new one and return the broken one as defective for a refund with the box and receipt from the new one
Edit: added as defective
I will spend ten times as long beating myself up about not doing the thing than it would take to just do the thing, which should make it crystal fucking clear that if I could just do the thing, I would fucking just do the thing.
And then, if I DO do the thing, I will spend twenty times as long as it took to do the thing afterwards replaying in my head exactly how I did the thing and beat myself up over every little imperfection.
Sometimes I have to really hold myself back from editing messages that are perfectly fine because I feel like I'm being too random and thus need to explain myself and add context
And this is while medicated, too.
WAN show is like 33% Linus whining about any actual or perceived slight against him for like over a year now. It's getting so annoying.
I tend to agree that they should have spoken up. Even if just for the damn clicks and views.
I'm on the verge of tears myself. And I never feel that way about celebs. David Lynch was incredible and I'm going to miss him.
David Lynch was incredible. Truly a creative genius. Seemed like a decent human being too, from what I can tell.
I'll be pouring out some damn fine and hot coffee in his honor.
