    It’s easy. You buy a set of ram on Amazon and put your old sticks in the box when you return it.

    I upgraded half the parts in my computer this way over a year ago. We really need to promote stealing from large corporations. It’s silly how many people are still following the rules of society when they aren’t.

      Until they decide to sell it again and the next customer gets what you returned instead of what they ordered

        Over a year later. Falls under petty theft which has a statute of limitations of a year in my state. I’m not losing sleep over it.

        And this is all theoretical for internet points. I’d never actually do something like that. Never never never. Not even once.

        I also don’t weight every fruit and vegetable at self checkout as a potato (lowest cost per weight item usually). I’d never ever do that.

      Yes, that’s now I got all the HDDs for my NAS. No remorse stealing from Bezos

        Nice. Zero victim crime.

        The bonus for me is that the GSkill RAM i got is now a part of a class action settlement on their RAM speeds being advertised falsely. No idea how much I can get “back” but gonna try.

        Working overtime on taking a little bit back from what they steal from us in taxes alone.
