If It can be resealed to perfection, there's every reason to use the sealed box method.

The package arrived recently, and there was no photo or signature taken of the shipment. Is this ideal for DNA? The box was quite large, and the carrier is Purolator.

Who accepted the box?

You're purely claiming nonreceipt of goods, hence the size Is Irrelevant.

'm not sure who I lived with accepted the box, but the shipping information says, "Shipment delivered at: FRONT DOOR," so I believe it was just dropped off at my front door. I am thinking to just claim the possibility that it was delivered to the wrong location, like mentioned in your blog.

Try and find out.
If they didn't sign at all or perhaps with a fake signature, the DNA Is good to go.

If that's the case, they've basically DNA'd themselves.

It's been more than 24 hours, and I will contact their support soon to start the SE. Is there any chance that the Purolator driver will come back to my address to ask why I said I didn't receive my order?

I've chosen to instead go with the sealed box method. The weight of the substitute item is pretty much identical. Does anyone know how thoroughly Best Buy checks returns as the wafer stickers are a bit dirty under them and it's been a little bit damaged on a small edge?

Best Buy does In fact check the seals, but they don't open and Inspect the contents.
How noticeable Is the damage to the seals?

The seals still keep their shape although there are small indents on the edges where I peeled at them. It also appears dirty on some parts under the seals. These are the circle seals.

You're the best judge of Its condition.
If you believe It will go unnoticed when returned, by all means hit the sealed box method.
