Sealed box method - InternetRockStar - 01-17-2023
Hey guys,
I'm going to attempt to SE an iPhone 14 Pro max using the sealed box method.
My question is can I fill the box with anything as long as it doesn't make sound and matches the weight? And if they do open the box for some reason how can I return it? Am I stuck with it in that case?
My final question is can it blow back on me in the future? E.g.
Someone buys it 6 months down the line and I'm getting rebilled and reported?

You can circumvent the rebill by doing it in store and paying by cash

Smart thinking. A rebill is inevitable though?
I really don't want to go instore. I have a feeling it's gonna get opened and I'm not good at faking emotions

Id say the likelihood of a rebill varies from retailer to retailer. I know it is daunting to go in store but it is much more scalable than SBing online and as mentioned you dont have to worry about potential rebills or banned accounts.

I'll definitely consider it then Do you have any experience with argos at all?

Not yet but I am in the preparation stage, in fact what i am going to do soon is a test run with a legit return in store to see how they handle it. I am just in the process of building up the capital for said purchase, shouldn't be long now.

First and foremost, who's the company?
Quote:My question is can I fill the box with anything as long as it doesn't make sound and matches the weight?Be sure It's a decent product of equal weight.
As such, If It's opened, the return can be justified.
Quote:And if they do open the box for some reason how can I return it? Am I stuck with it in that case?It's not an Issue whatsoever.
It can be returned for a legit refund by saying you were In a rush, and mistakenly packed the Incorrect Item In the box. As to why It was resealed to perfection, you were concerned that an open/damaged box would void the refund, hence returned It In Its original state.

Who's to say the next buyer Isn't a social engineer claiming he received an Incorrect product?

Thank you the in depth response this has helped me a ton! It's always nice to get a second opinion especially from someone as experienced as yourself.
