Their official support told me processing return and refund takes about 30 days.

7 more days and counting...

Shipped it back and waiting...I can show you Fedex return shipping delivery date and Amazon mail response...but it is what it is...maybe if you wear pink sunglasses all may seem differently ;)

Welcome! If you're looking for a monitor, here are the most frequently recommended taken from reddit posts. List last updated June 2023

24in 1080p 144hz -

» LG 24GN650-B - IPS, fast response time, 144hz, HDR10. Best bang for the buck right now, unless the AOC 24G2 is in stock

1440p 144hz

» Acer Nitro for budget, LG27GP850-B or Asus VG27AQ for mid range - IPS, Reddit favorite monitors. Contrast is ok. Best combos of performance and value.

Ultrawide 1440p 144hz

» LG 34GP83-AB - IPS, one of the fav on reddit. If you have extra budget, see Samsung Odyssey G9 to get 140hz and 49in or Alienwaire AW3423DWF for OLED, 175hz

4K

» BenQ EX2710U – 4k, 144hz, poor HDR. For better 4k gaming, see GIGABYTE M32U or LG 27GN950-B

Amazon is literally like a complete no hassle return.

Just pack the monitor in a box, start a return, return it to your nearest affiliated return area (UPS or Kohls if in USA as common places), return gets refunded within 3 days usually, buy the replacement monitor.

I like to keep my manuals and original boxes and accessories until the end of the return window for this reason.

I think right now Amazon. But if you want to go buy one and test it, hit up Best Buy. You can return for at least 15 days no questions asked.

I bought a faulty b550 tomahawk from Best Buy and return it for another b550 motherboard no questions asked

hmm maybe nordstrom since they have unlimited time for returns....target or amazon as well

Best Buy has a 60 day return policy if you are a member of their Best Buy Plus program ($50/year). It is longer than that during the holiday season.

Amazon takes back electronics no questions asked for 30 days after purchase. That’s why it’s the best place besides MicroCenter to buy pc components.

Just curious, what/why are you returning so often? I can count on one hand the number of times I've returned things to Amazon in the last decade.

How often are you returning items to Amazon?

Either stop buying things, stop returning things, or find a way to get to the whole foods FFS.

Why would Amazon want to keep you as a customer? You are incredibly low value to them and a massive PITA.

Every return I did has been a full refund. Was your item fulfilled by Amazon or by a 3rd party? That might be where the issue lies. If it’s fulfilled and returns handled by Amazon it’s always a full refund (at least in my experience).

I have a $9.99 item. I just did a test return.

It's giving me free return shipping if I dropoff at Whole Foods or UPS. Not sure what you're buying but return shipping depends entirely on whether you buy from "Amazon.com" purchases or third parties.

We make generous use of their return policy, but always do it via UPS or Whole Foods. We also try very hard to avoid third party shippers, because they make it much more difficult to return.

Their quality has really tanked. If they shipped fewer garbage items, fewer items would need returning.

Just take it to Whole Foods.

Laptops no restocking fee

Some items like cameras or cell phones have restocking fees, laptops are not one of them. When you purchase the item it’ll have you sign something saying you agree to the restocking fee, if you didn’t do that then no restocking fee. No restocking fee for you.

Employee here, there should not be any laptops that have a restocking fee. Only cellular devices, cameras, and maybe a very select few volatile items.

We also accept returns even if open and used as this will mark it as open box for somebody else in the future. Even if it was bought as open box, you can still return it. If you are in your return policy, go ahead and return in-store.

The easiest way to find out what your return window is is to read your receipt. It explicitly states how long you have to return the item right on the front of the receipt. And it is not a general statement, it is customized to you and your purchase.

And no laptops are not one of the devices that carries a restocking fee.

Full refund within 15 days for MOST products. Things that can be activated like cell phones have a 14 day return policy. You might also encounter refund fees on certain products including cell phones, camera products, drones, and a handful of products (15% for everything but cell phones, $45 for cell phones).

That said, most managers let it slide if you bring a product with a 14 day return policy back in 15 days. Usually not too big of a deal.

Used to be even better if you were a "My Best Buy" rewards member and moved up the tiers they had. The more you spent, the longer your return time was, in addition to other perks like free shipping and faster reward point accrual. All of that is recently removed... to BB's great shame and loss of sales.

</rant>

It only really applies to phones and cellular devices. Essentially BB can access your cellular account and add a device for you. Some times adding a device signs and agreement that you’ll pay it off over a certain amount of time. That agreement cannot be canceled after 14 days.

I'll return whatever you bring me so long as you don't fight me on the store credit, if out of policy.

Full refund via original form of payment within 15 days.

As long as it's shipped before the end of the return period. It does not have to reach them before the end of the period.
