I’m relatively new to SE’ing. I have only SE’d Amazon, pretty simple really.

I’m currently researching options on different methods to use, and have a couple of questions I can’t find the answers to.

This is in relation to the Serial Number method. I’m aware of how to acquire serial numbers that are under warranty, my question is, when it comes to executing the SE, won’t the company in question ask for some sort of proof that the purchase took place? Like the account the order was made from, if indeed it was an online order, as I can’t see them just accepting a serial number as proof of purchase. Forgive me if this is a stupid question. I’m just trying to better my knowledge before I continue my SE journey.

Secondly, with a PayPal dispute, if they ask for proof I have sent the item back to the company, can I just simply send anything back, so long as it has a tracking number and I can show to PayPal that I have indeed sent something, albeit not the correct item?

On an unrelated note I’m planning on getting some AirPods from Argos, using the DNA method. I’m pretty confident my first SE will be a success and I will update here on my progress.
