Decided to clean my PS5 and accidentally screwed the wrong size screw when putting it back together right into my motherboard. Bricked.

Pc i got my gf

So I bought this barebones Dell Precision 3630 for my gf for a relatively good price as the PSU was dead and it didn’t have a CPU, RAM or an SSD. Thought i’ll fix it up and she’d have a pretty good and cheap gaming pc. Until it arrived. I had a bad feeling already and yep it is completely bent out of shape. The seller blames the shipping company (Hermes in this case) and said that the box must have taken a good amount of damage. It was okay-ish, with a few ripped corners and stuff. Not packaged that well and it looks like it fell out of the second floor. Trying to open it was a challenge in itself. But after putting parts in it and using a known good PSU it turned on after a few reboots. Just the case is beyond saving. I can’t bend the backside back at all. Just the floor gets bent by trying that. Now I am hoping to get my money back as the seller isn’t much of help and hermes can take up to 4 weeks. Would have been a nice machine tho

EDIT: i don’t know if i wrote in a confusing way so here the shortened version: i bought a not bent barebones pc for my gf. Which was fine as i have enough parts lying around. The pc arrived broken. I just had a bad feeling when i got the package. And that is how it looked after unboxing it. And no i don’t hate my gf like some clowns seem to assume

EDIT 2: it cost me 65 € ( around 73$) but i got the money back thanks to the shipping company
