Weird stuff happens. I once ordered a used Amiga 500 system off of EBAY for $500 C.O.D. So the ups driver delivers it at my door and leaves. Never collects the money. It took me 3 days of arguing with the company before they finally looked it up and discovered they made a mistake and it was a C.O.D. shipment. Long story short, they told me that since I was the first one who was honest & reported it, I could just keep it as a reward for my honesty. Still have it.

I actually work for a system refurbisher for schools and businesses. That first boot into Windows is a built-in admin account to download drivers and install software before a user is created. It's not a bad install, just an unfinished one! Edit: If you're at the "Choose your Country" screen, press "CTRL+SHIFT+F3" and it'll reboot into said admin account. It's very useful if you're building a computer for a friend and want to pre-install certain programs for them!

I've bought quite a number of refurbished PCs from eBay/Amazon/Newegg marketplace sellers and in a few instances, a better system arrived than what was in the listing. It was always the same case/chassis, but it might be a generation newer, have a higher-spec CPU, more RAM, and/or an SSD instead of a hard drive. I got in touch with the seller the first time it happened- the system had an i7 for the price of an i3, and twice as much ram as I'd ordered. They told me there was no mistake, they simply send out the same model PC with higher spec components if the one ordered is out of stock.

@VERY EVIL PERSON FROM ILLUMINATI yeah, that's a good law. It's meant to prevent somebody from sending you something and then demanding that you pay for it. Apparently it used to be a thing where scammers would send something valuable, leave it for a while, and then contact the recipient with a huge bill with the justification that "well you used the item so you have to pay for it". Pretty damn scummy. Having said that it's not usually quite as simple as "yay free stuff". You often have to make a genuine effort to rectify the issue, and return the item if possible. You just can't be forced to pay for it or be held legally liable for the delivery. Obviously this depends hugely on where you live... Some countries probably have no such protection, and others likely have very different rules.

@@veryevilpersonfromillumina5893 here in The Netherlands, if a seller sends you a more valuable product than you had ordered, you are obliged to return it if the seller asks for it. Logically, the seller is responsible for the costs of the return shipment and sending you the correct product. Only if a company sends you a product without any request from your side, you are allowed to keep it under any circumstance. Would you however decide to return the product anyway, the original sender will still be obliged to pay for costs of the return shipment. (for those interested, above is based on Dutch law: article 7:7 Burgerlijk Wetboek (civil code of The Netherlands))

Amazon is so dumb they failed to scan any small package I bought. So if I bought any RAM, NVMEs etc. off of Amazon, they'd always end up being deemed "lost" days later even though I already have them and am using them. And I'm always able to ask for a refund lmao. Thanks for the free stuff, Bezos. Before screaming 'fraud!' at me, keep in mind I'm only committing fraud against Amazon which works for me. I always buy new, sold & shipped from Amazon themselves. Which means the companies that actually made these parts already got their bucks from Amazon buying in bulk. Only Bezos gets screwed over here.

If they are not addressed to you then legally they are the property of the monarch until received by the addressee and opening or keeping them are criminal offences.

here back in 2018 or 19 i ordered a laptop off fleabay, it was a refurbished, very low spec, paid like 200 or 250 for it, and when i received it, i was absolutely blown away by what i had received, it was a brand new dell g7 15. i went to message seller about it, and the seller was no longer on flebay. so i received a 1500 laptop for 200 or 250. ohh and yes it had a full dell warranty as-well.

I sort of had this happen with my pots and pans on ebay. Over the course of 3 months, I bought 1 400 dollar pan (MSRP) and 2 200 dollar pans (MSRP). Because I got the wrong 200 dollar pan, repeatedly, he ended up giving me a refund...for the 400 dollar pan that I bought months ago. So for the price of 1 damaged pan, I have 3 pans. And after all of that labor, I don't think he actually managed to fix his issue with packaging up the wrong pans.

So it looks like the seller left the System in Audit Mode, where you can mess around with things in Windows without setting up an account, useful for making sure drivers and such are on a PC you plan to sell as a one-off. (If there were more you might as well make an image). Hit OK on the little popup (leave the options unchanged) and it should restart the system and go back to the initial setup. Audit mode also tends to get upset about waking back up from sleep/hibernation, hence the message about the disabled account.

Surprised the CPU heatsink had thermal contact; looked more than just a little tweaked. Also cringed a bit when the board flexed back into shape removing the first pillow. Oh well, bonus components that work are nothing to complain about - esp. since there's no comment here so I guess it's not worth their time (?)

I don't peel my side cases or screens as the day after I do they end up getting scratched by the ghost that lives in my house. So they remain on until. A they get gross. B They naturally fall off. C when I no longer have to do anything with it. Frosted case side actually looks nicer with the amount of RGB I have case wise it's the one your cat picked in another video. :)

Randy probably works for a company that does prebuilts on ebay, amazon, craigslist, etc and was probably fired when they found out he shipped the wrong PC to the wrong person. As another commenter mentioned, someone else got that 1050ti system instead of the one your received so they were probably uber pissed and Randy had to make it up to them probably costing the company almost a thousand dollars.

Better CPU and GPU. Nice little system you got there for the money. I am guessing that still no word from the Randster. Perhaps he was trolling you and decided to give you a better system to see what you would do. Probably not expecting you to get back to him so he could get back to you and say he made a mistake. But I guess he never realised how honest you really are and it took him by surprise.
