Apple EB for airpod pros?

I just ordered airpod pros and they'll be here tomorrow. I heard that apple is giving pretty much free money considering they aren't cross checking weight atm. Is EB method a go for airpod pros?

Depending on the weigh of the AirPods, there shouldn't be a problem with EB. Just claim the AirPods weren't in the box.

Even If the weight Is cross-checked, It won't be an Issue.

AirPods "Pro" weigh 57 grams (round figures) - 45.6 grams for the charging case, and 5.4 grams for each AirPod, hence perfectly suited to the EB/missing Item method. 2nd & 3rd generation are around 10 grams lighter.

So when I claim the airpods were missing, is it just the airpods or the case as well? Or do I say upon opening the box there was nothing in it?

You'll be fine by saying that the AirPods case is missing (including the real AirPods obviously).

Got refunded yesterday, super easy. Was thinking of recording the calls and posting them somewhere, is that against TOS?

AirPods Pro weights 230 grams (charging case, both AirPods and foiled carton) I ordered it and checked.
