...well, it seems to have been worth it. Had an email this morning confirming that it had passed (failed?) their inspection and to expect a replacement to arrive within the next week.
S-i-L will be pleased ;-) (unless I put it on eBay c£170 current price after all)
The failed processor was picked up by DHL at 14:00, and was with AMD in their RMA centre in The Netherlands mid-morning the next day. I did have to print two copies of the customs declaration form for the pickup driver, but other than that, surprisingly it doesn't appear to have been "Brexited". (having it picked up by a driver from DHL East Midlands Airport, from whence it exited these shores probably helped expedite things).
