Beautiful. Thank you

Item was missing

Did they ask you to send the package back?

Honestly, If I may answer this: The item weight is to low to be measured by the carrier. And since the box was claimed to be empty, it wouldn't make sense to ask for a return. After-all, they would receive an empty box back in a case like this. So it makes sense the way they acted. A real customer with problems would react the same way as OP did. If Apple starts to distrust every customer with problems, they would lose their reputation incredibly fast.

Of course you can answer.

No, you're probably right the fact is that I am always reluctant about big and rich companies like Apple that don't use CCTV during canning and package the item. Or maybe they acted in that way only because they will block the device marking it as "stolen/lost" making it be useless, may also because of this. Anyway-

Do you believe with the way I've handled my SE so far that double dipping using Box method would be successful? Just as a second opinion

Yes you can, by (for example) claiming that It's not working.
