Correct me if I am wrong, is your main comment that you feel AMD stealth increased the price before the promotion to make it seem like you're getting a "free game" when in fact because of the stealth price increase you're actually paying for the game? When it comes to Cashback versus Games...

Good to know, yes brand brand new electrics (we rewired our old 40's house with everything new (1-year old) so it is UK based and an RCD unit (I used fuse due to the international nature of the site) makes sense they will react much quicker than wire fuses. Thanks for the info, I learnt...

I've already returned to the retailer for a full refund, their problem, but I do have photos I will send over to them

It almost matches my RGB

FYI this is why I was concerned re the labels and seal Pretty blues. Given it happens with the flick of the intake switch I imagine the fault is with the 240v intake side

Thanks buddy

I popped a message to BeQuiet they did say it should be shrink wrapped. I've seldom purchased BQ stuff though I tend to stick with Seasonic

Honestly, I didn't even think of it, I've had many PSU's come without shrinkwrapping before so didn't bat an eyelid and didn't even think of it at the time

No shrink wrap, and the label was intact, but it also looks like a generic label which concerned me, ie non branded. No EU plug inside the box, no UK 3 pin plug, which is rare for the UK. Of course I understand the PSU is fine power wise, it runs 100-240v so no issues using a US psu in the UK...

Hey Bill, Don't worry I do appreciate your replies. I work in IT too so I understand where you're coming from, I was working so rushed some replies so I will clarify a few things. I imagine the PSU may have come from the German distributor directly, Possibly, But given information I've...

every PSU I order over here has a UK cable inside the box, was odd this one didn't

Both very good points. Re warranty I'm already returning to the reseller for a full refund (UK law grants is that) but its been difficult and the reseller is trying to add on fees, didn't want to pay for return etc initially. A lot of suspect information has come to light from this retailer...

Yes inside the PSU box, this wasn't it was outside the main box and just inside the shipping box wrapped in bubble wrap

Yeah the reason I am concerned is the PSU has blown on my within two hours of use and trips my entire electrics when I plug it in, also the retailer, upon investigating is very very suspect and other reports that they may be selling open box or returns as new products. It also didn't come with...

Hi, quick favour, I think I may have been passed off a RMA/Refurb PSU as brand new, Can anyone with a legitimate BeQuiet PSU (ideally straight power 11) confirm if this is the seal sticker they use? (note the seal is broken in my PSU that's because I broke the seal
