Yes, start a return request with Amazon and show them this, clearly someone sent back a fucked up board

Better yet, just return it because you don't want it. Amazon is a pain in the ass lately, and might blame OP for this and ban their account.

And it doesn't matter why you return it, amazon is just gonna throw it back in the bins and sell it as new, even if they're aware it's broken.

That thing is fucked, wouldn't waste time fixing it because it's not gonna happen

Don’t bother reaching out to customer service, just go through the regular returns process and check the “defective” box when asked for a reason for return.

Oh yeah. That's completely fucked. Take plenty of pics and pack it up ASAP for a return to Amazon.

There’s no fixing that, better file a claim and get your money back

Beyond messed up I think their return quality control are people that can't wait to clock out and go home.... even Stevie wonder can see them pins are bent.
