The key is to weigh the chargeback against what you loose without it. Remember that, in the case of hard goods, with the chargeback you loose the product, the shippping and the cargeback fee - if you refund you just loose the product and shipping. With software, it's just the money or the money and a chargeback.

In the case of hard goods, I'd never 'replace' a product until I had the other one back in my hands. Why give 'em two freebies?
