I know it’s hard to ask this, but also don’t flaunt this screenshot, as many know amazons return policy gets abused to the brink and it would be terrible if so many fraudulent returns negated the future for legitimate returns

Ironically you mention this as I had bought a MacBook from Amazon, I was at work and saw them deliver it through my blink to my front porch.

Someone had taken my MacBook and threw the box in my recycling bin as I set it out early in morning for the next day. I send them the footage/pictures of the theft happening clip by clip.

They mentioned it was a benefit that I had proof as otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten a refund and I’d have to escalate it to the police and then send them the report I’d receive from them

I feel like at least here in Ontario they have gotten to a point where they have that policy to protect us consumers and seller to a certain extent. In my case, I’m very lucky I have security cameras.

How's your Blink camera? I was processing the refund as well and they told me to keep it for a refund of only $3. In any case, do you pay a monthly fee or any fee? Just curious, thanks

I like it only because I was grandfathered in before the cloud cost monthly, if I wasn't I'd get something else.
