Returned Batteries

[BillyDrone61]

I feel totally ashamed of myself.
I purchased $300 worth of batteries from Amazon.
When the new batteries arrived i put the 5 year old batteries in the boxes that the new batteries arrived in and returned them.
$368 dollars went back to my Amazon credit..
I feel terrible.
What should I do to make things right?

If it will help appease your guilt, you can transfer your Amazon credit to me.

You will most likely never hear from the seller you returned too.
Why would you return your old batteries to anyone? Unless you hoped for them to be seen as "returned". It is a crime called "Wardrobing" and you could have a problem, Possibly,OR, Your return will most likely end up in a junk-heap of Amazon returns no-one ever the wiser. who knows???

Whatever you decide always remember:
"You made a deal with the seller and if you make a deal with somebody you keep your word!
You can go home today with your money and never do this again...BUT, You took something that wasn't yours and sold it for a profit, Your now a criminal, Good one, Bad one, Thats up too you."

Technically, in "wardrobing," the seller receives the original merchandise back, after the buyer’s brief one time use, like a free rental. In this case, they received 5 year old batteries in trade for brand new ones. Not quite the same. Much worse. Even Mike Ehrmantraut would agree.

Contact Amazon, tell them what you did and ask them to ban you. Forever.

PS: I smell troll.

I agree, why would someone in their right mind post their crime ???

A bit before Christmas, I ordered a rather large SSD (8TB) from Amazon. It cost a smidgen over $870. When it was delivered, I thought the box was rather large. When I opened it, I found out why. Instead of sending me a box with one SSD, someone had sent a box containing 10 of them. Being right before Christmas, I figure some temporary worker or possibly overworked person made an honest mistake. Would Amazon's system discover the problem eventually? I don't know. The letter of the law says I could keep the drives since the mistake was Amazon's. That's not my style. My biggest concern was the fear of sending the 9 extra drives back and having someone credit my account for the $870 or worse, $870 x 9. I contacted Amazon and worked out a way of returning the extra drives without causing any further problems. Hopefully no one was penalized for the mistake. Many will look at my actions as being stupid. Sure, the drives could have been sold on ebay for $650 and gone like hotcakes. Besides, Amazon is a trillion dollar company and wouldn't notice the mistake, or at least suffer from it. I'm no saint by anyone's measure, but I'm not a thief either.

You should be proud of yourself.
You did the right thing.

I own a Mavic Pro that I have owned for about ten years now..I wanted to buy batteries from DJI but unfortunately they stopped making batteries for the Mavic Pro.....Why Why Why?
I ended up buying batteries from a 3rd party..
When the new batteries arrived they fit snug but would not "click" in the drone like they are supposed to..
The new batteries work fine and all but they just don't "click" in the drone..
I was kinda pissed so I put the old batteries in the boxes the new batteries came in and returned them to Amazon...
The credit went back on my Amazon account.
I feel terrible.
I never stole anything in my life.
