Dodgy Amazon deliveries

[Chogg97]

Soooooo, 

Amazon prime day and a 970 EVO 500gb goes up and I'd been umming and arrring about one but then with a discount code it was a decent deal. So I order it and it arrives, and well the security seal has been broken and shock, no drive in the box. OK, we know this happens, people send stuff back with amazons ridiculous returns policy where "anything goes" but you'd think they'd check. I get the replacement all hyped and the next one has had the security label removed and no drive again! getting it refunded but obviously I know don't have a new EVO  

Wanted to get what you guys thought about this, is this a common occurrence with things like these or is the Local distribution getting away with murder?

 

P.S. new here so sorry if its in the wrong place haha

This is more like something you should bring up with the package carrier if your packages have been broken into. That being said, are you sure it's not just some opportunist going door to door and nicking packages?

I thought it might have been that but the anti tamper amazon boxes with the cardboard zip (you know the ones I mean) are all fine and sealed, its like someones opened it taken it and returned the empty box to amazon and they've just reshipped it.

That sounds like a distribution-side problem. I'd get in touch with FedEx or whoever and tell them what happened

Oh do the carriers wrap the packages in the amazon boxes? I assumed the boxes were pre-wrapped by amazon distribution and then sent out via the carriers?

I don't know but that seems like a reasonable guess
