jajolt Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 So, I am building a PC. I thought an FX 6200 looked cool, especially since I was on a budget. So ya dee dah I get it. Install it, it's defective. Okay, no big deal, I create an RMA request online. K. I wait THREE WEEKS before I decide to call. He was like "umm well der dum derp err the system recently has been glitching not sending RMA emails der dum derp. I'll send you a new one." Wait one day longer than I was supposed to, get shipping info, take it into kinkos. They have trouble scanning the RMA barcode. Okay, they enter it manually. Well they thought that the I was a lowercase L and they sent it. I was like yay, it's sent and I'll get a new one soon. NOPE. My processor is now a knife in the Atlanta Cutlery Corp. Not being scanned at the Miami Location of AMD. So now FedEx is trying to get it back and the processor is probably a knife now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeman Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 did you purchase it from newegg or somewhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silly Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Always always buy from newegg. (My personal preference) I ordered a whole computer from them in parts and got it all within 3-5 days no questions asked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BranHorse Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 (edited) Doesn't sounds like an issue with AMD. I basically blew up my poor 550 be (old world record chip) and called them up, said it just stopped working and the mobo was dead too. Sent me a new 550 be (not a good clocker sold it to my brother). The rma was done via ups. Whenever you ship small items always use UPS or the USPS (usps is honestly my favorite they have improved so much). Fed ex is crap i cant wait for them to go bankrupt. Never have had a good experience with them. p.s/edit FYI amd's phone support is the only way to contact AMD. For intel email usually works better than calling. Kinda funny actually.

It sort of is for selling me a faulty chip and for making the RMA process really stressful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BranHorse Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 There's always gonna be a faulty chip even faulty batches. Its how the electronic industry is. What happened to you is very typical for most companies. Just the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
