I purchased it through an online platform and collected it in person. I accidentally repeated the process because I’m unfamiliar with the procedure.

Go back tell them what happened and get a refund. It's a scam that has slowly been ramping up in frequency.

I’ll head to another Best Buy to check availability, since the first one only had one unit and other locations have 5800x in stock.

Consider returning it at the original location where you purchased it. I’m uncertain whether another store will accept a return for a product bought elsewhere.

At Best Buy, they accept items only if you provide proof of purchase from a different Best Buy location.

Head to the place where you made the purchase. They might only offer you store credit as a last resort. Switching to another option raises some red flags.

As the person mentioned, it might seem odd, but staying persistent and polite could help. Just make sure you don’t act like a troublemaker, then you should be okay following someone else’s lead. Good luck!

Not long after, I visited a Best Buy with two 5800x models and wanted to exchange my old one. When I looked inside, both boxes appeared genuine, but they were both fake! I tried another box, yet it was identical—no signs of tampering at all. How could this happen? It seems someone is manipulating things behind the scenes.
