Is this something like a scam type like Harshad Meheta type, Money in the account for 10-12 days for shorting share - Control over Investment / Money market / bit coin exchange.
I think Amazon won't release the payment unless buyer received the product and atleast waited a week in case of any dispute so don't think this is money scam.

Other possibility could be the buyer info, this way seller gets full access to Name/Email/Address/Phone/(Payment method, so he knows you have an account in such bank or XX card - I might be wrong about this though)

That's eBay.

Amazon pays immediately, that's the reason why refund issues crop up where the order is not Amazon fulfilled.

That’s what I always wonder about the obvious scam postings. Not sure about the payment details, surely the seller must be getting the full name and address details and mobile number with order. Weird roundabout way of getting details, already tons of data brokers out there for much cheaper. Just a weird theory.

if we assume this, the data received will be latest (people will be using their detail to receive product update, shipping details), if that appears to be the thing then assume it as next Acxiom in the making.

Since these new sellers are not using amazon as courir partners the info they collect should be much more valuable than the shipping charges. Though all these are just speculations but I can't think of better explanation for such scams. Anyone who orders 5600x won't just keep 160gb HD and let the matter go, so scammers know what will be the end result.

Instead go for Boat IM1000D. Razer quality is not good. Plus Boat is cheaper for 2500.

That Razer headset does not have a good feedback. I think Razer used a cheap OEM model for that model and was forced to bring down the price. The MRP is over 10k if I remember correctly. But speaking only of the price the 3500rs is the lowest which I've come across. It's normal sale price vary between 3999-4599.
Only "gamers" who are obsessed about anything and everything "gaming" branded might want it.

they probably send it to company for RMA if the item is really faulty or they sell them as refurbished item with discount.
I saw articles where they say that returns are just put in a pile and destroyed. It's more profitable then just doing the whole RMA and other process.

They better know what to do with the returned items, but chances are less for destroying expensive items like a WD 44k branded SSD

Looks like something is broken at their end, its not accepting any credit or debit card at the moment. Thought of subscribing, but it just didn't work.
Yes, they acknowledged it. Some issue at their end and they're working on it.
