Contacted Amazon again and they said that the Kindle DXG I bought was returned a huge amount of times and they froze my account.

Thankfully customer service is pretty nice, I got moved up to a higher level rep who quickly saw that I was not the original purchaser, not even close. So they reopened up my account, unfortunately they wouldn't replace the Kindle though so I had to fix it myself.
I never even would have thought that Amazon would replace a device purchased through craigslist! How old was it?
