Time to try and refund a $5,000 unrefundable TV /s

This doesn't always work and it depends on the product

Precisely hence why the /s and how impractical the lifeprotip the OP has provided

For the most part, they'll only honor the refund if there is actually something wrong with the product, they won't let you keep it even if it's broken. Because I've had that happen to me, the reseller of a product said the item was non-refundable, but the phone came in damaged. So I refunded it through Amazon and they took the broken phone away and returned my money.

Do this enough and they ban your account. So choose wisely

It depends greatly on the product and your return history.

Stuff like this is easy for them to track, and you will be banned swiftly if you abuse it.

I was shipped a shoe rack instead of a suitcase. Amazon refused my refund, because the FedEx driver never picked it up. 1 year later, I still have the fucking shoe rack.
