Drop your GPU below and I’ll tell you exactly what model and config to run on it. JOKES. No need. Qwen 3.6 27b @UnslothAI . All day. All night.

@thatcofffeeguy Really appreciate that man, tell you my heart stopped lastnight . When it happened everything just went quiet for what felt like 20+ seconds , than he started crying . Tough little man though !

@Blackwellboy So glad to hear this man. I actually looked you up to see if there was an update. Hope he feels better soon.

Thankyou everyone for the well wishes and DMs, was a long night but finally discharged and he will be fine, just very sore and swollen brow line thankgod nothing permanent.

@samelldev ty much appreciated

@Blackwellboy best wishes mate, hope he's alright!

Two tough days, Package turns up empty with no spark, police reports etc. today, my son jumped over the couch, smacked his head on the tiles and knocked himself out, now in hospital for the past several hours, pray he will be ok.

@rwtenjoyer Thankyou for sharing that, I think that is very likely the same situation I’m facing

One of my businesses sells a few of our SKUs on Amazon. People routinely return boxes with random garbage in it and Amazon's staff will "inspect it," then mark it "good as new," and let someone else buy it. One SKU we had a 50% return rate, asked for our inventory back, and discovered this.

First time I order from the USA. My ASUS GX10 turn up almost a week early. Great! No. Not great. Seeing a few peoples tweets about issues receiving these from Amazon damaged, I decided to record from grabbing it off of my porch to the unboxing. I suspected bad packaging, possibly damaged, but I didn’t suspect no unit inside. When I initially saw it I noticed some sides of the box the tape was up and the box itself looked like it had been through ww3. I picked it up, it felt a bit light but heavy enough not for my heart to sink too much. Anyway long story short, everyone that knows me knows I keep my packaging pristine. I open the box pull it out, seal was broken, box looked like this and no unit. Charger still inside though guess that’s why it felt a bit heavy. Now amazon asking for a police report and all that bs. Anyone know of anyone with bad experiences like this or how the process works please reach out. What a day.

@danielbitpro @chrittazz @AmazonHelp No seal was broken completely box damaged

@Blackwellboy @chrittazz @AmazonHelp And so begins the saga of Amazon replacing all the warehouse employees with robots because some of them keep stealing stuff... Sorry this happened, wasn't the box sealed?

Chose to just return my tampered with Asus GX10 to Amazon. Wasted a bunch of time - but oh well. Next week or 2, on the GX10 grind. Now, we wait.

@AgentSparko you would think so, but i dont think itll be that simple unfortunatly from what i have been hearing from everything its a big stuff around

@Blackwellboy WOW, that looks like all the proof you need. Maybe you should contact the courier company and send a photo of that tag to Amazon.

@macncrash @MiaAI_lab @amazon Damn, I can imagine. I feel I’ve been a pretty good customer, not as long as you but certainly purchased enough. Maybe they are mad I canceled a bunch of subscriptions to things we don’t stream anymore 😂 that was like the same time I was buying it

surprised they won't just send you a new one right now overnight (we got sparking to do!!) & drop off what is left at whole foods. 25+ years of prime I guess gets a special checkbox in your account or something - you wouldn't believe what I've returned (damaged/missing xyz/stolen/fake ...). Good luck!

@AgentSparko No idea, says “no weight” on the final one 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Blackwellboy Are the packages put on a scale at some point in order to establish the shipping cost or something along these lines ? I think is the final courier that came with the package to your house.

@Robert_of_Maine Well the funny thing is I got a notification somewhere saying I was meant to sign for it, not sure whether it was email or a amazon notification , but I definitely remember seeing it, and yeah the guy must have just dropped it off at my door and left , no signature nothing

@Blackwellboy When I got my b70, the UPS man came to my house, and showed me the package was sealed and undamaged, and then I signed for it. I am surprised that service wasn't used in your case.

@loktar00 You just found a new avenue for the support club 😂

@Blackwellboy Random thought... we could tell our wives they keep getting stolen and thats why they keep seeing boxes show up, they're the replacements 🤔 I could have my neighbor "hold" one once in a while without telling me so I don't feel bad about lying

@jsg_squared Oh really? Thankyou for that information !! That is really really useful ! I had no idea , if that’s the case maybe the police report and them knowing that will just help solidify it though , what’s your thoughts

That’s an LPN sticker on the outside of the bag. That unit was opened and returned to Amazon like that. I’d escalate through customer support, they sent you an empty box. I’ve had to graphic card related issues with Amazon. 1 where the box had previously been opened and it was missing. Another where a scammer has swapped out a graphics card in an internal enclosure from a 3090 to a 2080. Amazon does nothing to penalize or prevent this sort of activity. Don’t give into their BS about a police report.

@AgentSparko I assume it was done before it was shipped out of the country tbh

WOW, this is fucked up. I hope you manage to get your money back by the time they get again more expensive. I would scan second hand market for them being put on sale by the courier and call police on him. I don't know how it works in your country but you might get your money back from Amazon and the stolen goods if you catch him. Did anyone ever tried this ? Really curious if that would work.

@brianbellx @afifsohaili Goal is glm over 2 x sparks at good quality 🔥🙏

@afifsohaili this was the sole reason i started this project

I hope one day we're gonna have capable models running locally. Or providers competing on price because these approaches cut a lil bit off their hardware costs. Both are wins for the consumers.

@with_gene2626 @AmazonHelp Wow thanks for sharing your experience, yeah this all seems ridiculous , but we will see what happens over the next few days hopefully I get a good outcome

Really sorry this happened to you... @amazonhelp Amazon sucks that last 6 months. You have this happen to you - and last week I ordered a used GX10 on Amazon and happened to get one that said it was in 'acceptable' condition. For me, I didn't care as long as it worked - and it was $3060. It said arriving and had a date - the day before it had no tracking so I chatted with them and was told it would arrive the next day. The next morning I get an email saying they canceled the order because the vendor didn't have inventory. Honestly, its pretty pathetic - I sent emails asking for a reasonable explanation - they basically ghosted me and would not answer the question of "why would it take a week to figure out you don't have inventory" when I could have purchased a used unit elsewhere. Amazon is very unreliable for customer service and especially for a company of it's size - it is sad.

@runsonai Yeah may as well just incase

@Blackwellboy Damn I remember you mentioning this to me. Sorry to hear you’re dealing with this BS. No fun. I’m getting mine from Amazon today, will have to record and hope it’s good.

@preem1nent No idea to be honest I’d say there would be ways around that and wouldn’t be done at every point could of happened anywhere I think

@Blackwellboy Nooooo, nightmare! They should have recorded the parcel weight surely? Least then you can see if it was done after packaging or before

@chrittazz @AmazonHelp That was literally my first thought. They aren’t doing it to help me, just for insurance, but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Will keep you updated

@Blackwellboy @AmazonHelp Goodluck. Amazon is notorious for just sweeping stuff under the rug like this. They probably need a police report # so they can claim it as a loss for their own insurance lol.

@x_micky_b My worst fear is not being able to get unit at same price by the time they sort this out it’ll probably have gone up again 😱

@Blackwellboy I really hope you will sort it out, and either get a new unit or your money back (they should eventually reimburse you)

@x_micky_b Never had an issue in australia amazon but i think America has a huge population of scammers or people on the take for things , I experienced it when i travelled there

@Blackwellboy I really don't trust Amazon
