Another victim has been impacted by Amazon's loose return policy and ended up with a product they did not want — if you can even call it a product. Bigmancal420 on the PCBuildHelp subreddit shared their story of how they ended up with a 3D-printed base, but a real IHS of a Ryzen 9 9950X3D after initially buying what they thought was a real used 9950X3D from a local Amazon warehouse for just €163 after VAT.
The victim showed images of the "product" revealing a 3D-printed backplate with no CPU inside whatsoever. The IHS was from a real Ryzen 9000 series chip, which was apparently enough to fool the Amazon employees into thinking the product was untampered.
