Boxing Success and Question - Dp110096 - 11-02-2018
So I successfully boxed Razer for a webcam. You know the deal. Got a serial number, said there was an issue, and sent it in to be replaced.
Now I wanna know if it would be a bad idea to do the same thing again. I would like to get a keyboard using the same method. It was honestly pretty simple, but I’m worried they’ll be able to associate the address or something. Is that a possibility?
I know that there are plenty of other and easier ways to go about it like a simple DNA refund. But I just can’t really afford to be spending money right now. With the boxing method, I never have to pay money at all.
Let me know your thoughts.

Yes, surely they will register your address as dangerous if you keep repeating the same activity

You certainly can do It again, however the timing between each SE plays a crucial role- do not perform each one In close proximity.
Also, change the context of your method to some degree. That Is, use a little variation that will not point to any similarities with the previous SE.

Something that I've been doing when I lived in a place where the main language wasn't English to be able to reuse the same address for as many SEs as I want: Use different words and spellings and translations. Obviously this works best if you live somewhere where English isn't the primary language, but if you do it's an useful tip
For example, one time you can write "House 123" then the next time you can write "123 Casa" (spanish) and etc, etc... Their system thinks it's different addresses, but the local postman has context and knows it's the same location. Though you can still get caught, it might be of some use to you...

This Is actually a very good method to disguise one's address.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
