I bought a NVME drive with a USB C enclosure. The drive is not working right so I decided to request a return to a store instead of shipping it. I haven't actually been to the store to return it but I cant find the original packaging anywhere. I think I threw it away... Will the store/Amazon accept the bare NVME drive?
They may accept it but you are more likely to not receive a full refund due to the depreciation in value for the item
If you select item defective you might get a full refund. I've done that a few times but it is at the discretion of amazon and the seller to honor it or not. I decided to buy my dash cams from best buy now. Why? More than a third of the ones I order from amaozn are defective or only have a 17 month shelf life. My defective ones often do not have 100% of the contents. I found so long as you include the major components they generally honor a full refund.
