Air pod pros fake swap - fortune - 09-25-2022
I’ve just received my 1:1 fake airpods that cost me a tenner on tiktok shop, they sound good, only issue is they have 0 apple branding but when you open the case it comes up as airpods, there is no writing on back or serial number on inside, if I bought real airpod pros, returned them put put the fake airpods in the real box instead, couldn’t I leave with the real ones?

If they do look very similar, that could be a valid option.
It requries the rep not to check the AirPods itself.

I went to see some in real life, put the fakes next to them, exact same size, looks the same, everything.

I've heard that if you loose your AirPods charging case, you get one for free from Apple.
So if you only swap the original AirPods, you could ask Apple to send you a new charging case.

Good idea, will try.
Should I hit an actual apple store, or one that just sells apple products.

I googled it, they said it costs money for replacements.

Go to Walmart. In all my experience, they literally couldn't give less of a shit. I'd be surprised if they even opened the box to check if they're there.
