Add a 001 to the apt/suite field. It won't matter to UPS/Fedex if it's there and doesn't apply.

They sell retailer returns from Wal-Mart and Home Depot. Been around for years.

I am guessing that once opened they are required to pay a restocking fee? Granted, I didn't read the return disclaimer.
It's a clear case of "item not as described". The question of a restocking fee should not even come up.

I see no mention in their FAQ if it matters if the return is opened or not. I guess maybe it is irrelevant since these are already refubs/used.

They have a similar model in stock with a 512gb SSD for $525 (If you look at the link it says 256gb). I'm guessing they are trying save face and send everyone a different model in order to make up for their own listing error. They also changed the PC model showing on their website and on their eBay listing. It's sad that they can't fulfill orders correctly because they know they messed up with their listings and they don't want to lose money sending the correct items out to everyone. We all got scammed on the 4th of July weekend. Such a POS move from this company.

".. messes up their own listing" or "We all got scammed", which is it enlightening one? LMAO don't take it personally. Mistakes happen, there's nothing nefarious going on here. Print out a free shipping label, and arrange a pickup while you're home. Find a safe space and have some coco.

Just received mine, sure enough it is a Ryzen 3 without dedicated video card. 1TB mechanical drive instead of 256G ssd, and only 180W power supply with no PCI-E power cable. Basically a complete E waste.

I'm holding out hope the orders via their web site will be the "real deal". I'll find out Saturday...

Both emails I received have the same description as the original listing and sale.

Let's be real, here: Less than $300 for a Ryzen 3600 and 1650 Super? If it sounds too good to be true...

Not to say that you won't get lucky somehow, but I ordered via their web site shortly after this was posted. Received a Ryzen 3 box without a graphics card.

Just chatted with them, looks like I lucked out with the cancellation.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately this order will be canceled because of a system issue related to this product. You should receive the funds back to your payment method within 3 days.

I guess the question is what are folks thoughts on what the real worth is? I am not sure if I could reasonability build a low end pc, with low power requirements, today, for $253?

It seems like the 3200g processor went for about $99 originally and now Amazon wants $219. That weak power supply and no leads for PCI-e means upgrading to a dedicated card is impossible or not cost viable.

Asking because I really only need it for a kid to play roblox and minecraft and the 3200/APU seems to handle that fine in 1080.

That markup was likely related to chip shortages, but AMD CPU availability has improved considerably in recent weeks and will keep improving. Many CPUs are actually available on amd.com whereas earlier everything was sold out. But only you can decide whether almost $300 (assuming you pay sales tax) is worth it given what you want and when. For me personally, a refurb with these components is not worth more than $100.
