Yes that's how majority of them work. This method is pretty good and is successful quite often.

One way they can dispute this is by having cctv in the packaging stage of creating the product. They often don't as majority products get manufactured off-site.

Another issue is if the manufacturer can see the product from within the box i.e. a see through package.

This is why this method works really well on earbuds and some CPU's, due to their weight and packaging.

How would I determine if the store I'm trying to SE has CCTV in their warehouse?

Either by scouring through the forum to find if someone already done the SE, asking someone maybe they know, or doing a test SE on a cheaper product.

What is the shop your trying to EB. If its not directly from the manufacturer but from a reseller like amazon, best buy etc. It should be fine to EB either way. They won't be allowed to view cctv footage from the manufacturer if im correct.

Ah okay, a trial run is what I'll do.

I was planning to SE the Google store UK. See if I could empty box the new earbuds they have

Hit a "practice run" - trial SE with a very cheap Item.

Do you know if the Google store uses CCTV at all? Would save myself sometime and hassle if you or someone else knows that it does. Thanks!
