Is it Worth Trying to Sell an Accidentally Bought Samsung S26 Ultra

adamapple

I've accidentally bought 2 Samsung S26 Ultra phones from Amazon. The first order seemed to fail so I ordered again. My account has already been flagged by Amazon for apparent excess returns, so I want to avoid returning the extra phone. Is it worth trying to recuperate the cost by selling it, or should I risk Amazon's wrath and return it?

It's likely that you will lose a fair amount of money if you do - nobody pays the cheapest available retail price for a second-owner new phone, because it can be difficult to register the warranty without evidence that it was bought from an "official" retailer. So if you want all of your money back, you have no choice but to return it (explaining that it was a failure in their system that led you to apparently order twice).

if I knew my account was flagged I wouldn't return it. I would sell and take the loss because I rely on Amazon for a few things, pet related, that I can't get at their prices.

This is the sort of question that only you can really answer, the 'value' of having access to Amazon varies for everyone, some of us rely on it for certain products others could happily live without it. Working on worse case scenario and assuming you do lose your Amazon account, how much would that be a nuisance to you?

As has been said trying to sell the phone on is likely to cost you a great deal of money as you may have to discount it by a considerable percentage .
