My experience from Vlebazaar India - Wrong & Damaged PSU Delivered

Hey fellow Tech Enclave members, I wanted to share an enlightening experience I had with Vlebazaar last year, and it’s a tale for the books. I placed an order for a Corsair VS650 PSU back in July 2025, but what I got was a complete mess. Here’s the full story: Order Details: Order Date: July 13, 2025 (Order ID: #3781533) Product Ordered: [Corsair VS650 PSU](https://vlebazaar.in/index.php?route=account/order/reorder&order_id=3781533&order_product_id=47033994) Amount Paid: ₹2,050 After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, I finally received the package on July 30, 2025 :face_with_raised_eyebrow: , and instead of the sealed Corsair unit I ordered, they sent me an open-box [Thermaltake LitePower RGB 650W](https://mdcomputers.in/product/thermaltake-litepower-smps-ps-ltp-0650nhsand-1) (Model: LTP-650AL2NK, Product Number: LTP-0650NHSAND-1, Serial Number: PSLT0650NHSAND1CL000022). When I took the package from Delhivery (visited their local hub for collection), it had some reassuring heft, but had a curious “Rattling” inside when shaken - Thought it must be the bundled power cord. But on my greedy unboxing, I found the source of the sound: a detached toroidal coil rattling around inside the PSU housing. I didn’t dare to connect it to the AC mains or test it in my rig. I’ve attached photos below showing the packaging, the wrong product, and the internal damage for proof (Order ID can be crosschecked by Vlebazaar). I still keep all the original packaging, just in case. A flustered me, promptly emailed their support team right away, demanding they pick up this junk and either send me a brand-new, sealed Corsair VS650 or give me a full refund. I gave them 48 hours to sort it out, or I’d “escalate” to the Consumer Helpline, NPPA Grievance Cell, and blast it on social media. (I was just pissed - maybe I should have dialled down the threats) Haven’t heard back yet, so I, being the lazy bum I am, got the PSU repaired locally. There is a second part to this story involving a sketchy imposter and a lightweight black PSU with a Saviour Complex. I will post it after collecting allthe necessary pictures. Please share your PSU journey. I just wanted to share what not to do when buying PSUs. Appreciate any advice! ![Courier packing slip says Corsair VS650|375x499](upload://i87RgKntT2vPB1ONz7Wds5rhZsp.jpeg) The courier packing slip says Corsair VS650. The flimsy package led to the DoA. ![Thermaltake PSU Damage inside|375x499](upload://sbbMOzWSTddWk4RdtgRIP4nQ0X6.jpeg)The clean interior reveals the defect. ![Close Up of Detached Toroidal coil inside|375x499](upload://1B1UUzOoGYNZfMDFxKEeuuyp2Hg.jpeg)For the Miopic - Close up shot of the detached Toroidal transformer. ![Thermaltake PSU BOX|375x499](upload://maM9ENqfeUthTy4QAZKtOfBTr8h.jpeg)The box was pretty banged up from the transit. ![Thermaltake PSU Label|375x499](upload://eIAQJBLN63cxEq4bHr8ShhQAYZi.jpeg) The label reveals some mediocre specs. ![WhatsApp Image 2026-01-21 at 2.18.23 PM|224x500](upload://t1EHMeXlYoSp3RYW88U7PDdK4SI.jpeg)Order Information (Name and Address removed for privacy) Overall, it had a positive outcome because my PSU technician intervened and repaired the power supply unit for 600 INR. Now, it operates smoothly in my dear friend’s UnRAID homeserver (Pentium Gold, 16GB DDR4, Asus B365, Mirrored ZFS, inside a CM Force 500 build), sipping minimal power and occasionally putting on a light show when the nephews visit. #30dayChallenge
