Amazon returns process - Pokemon Booster Box 09-17-2022, 10:50 AM
#1
I'm trying to figure out what the return process is for Pokemon Booster boxes.
Pokemon Booster boxes use a specific "Pokeball" shrink wrap that has Pokeball designs on the wrap.
Let's say I got the booster box and decided to SB it, it would require me to remove the special shrink wrap. If I were to then replace that shrink wrap with generic clear shrink wrap, would Amazon see that and know, or do they treat it like any other SB return?

They'd obviously notice the difference
Everything I post here is fictional. Anything mentioned on my posts that corresponds to events that happened in real life is coincidental.

Ah damn, I'll perhaps have to figure out a way of how to remove the wrap and then replace it. Either that, or do a DNA. Thanks for the info

Prior to proceeding, check If an OTP will be required on delivery.
Idk what that is. I live in a very rural area so the best we get is 2 day shipping through USPS. Is that something they do? And how would I go about finding out?

OTP = One-Time Password, a code you have to give the delivery man if you want him to hand the parcel to you

I don't believe they do that in my area. I've never been asked for one before. Just a signature.

In that case, the DNA Is good to go.
Obviously fake sign It, but with a name that's somewhat legible. As such, when It's cross-checked It will not be associated to yours, hence "you" did not sign the delivery.
I believe, if I'm correct, that I can order up to $699 worth of merchandise and no signature is required. I added stuff up to $1000 then slowly went down until it dropped below $700 and it no longer said I needed to sign. So it sounds like I can probably DNA a pretty large amount.
Past that point, I'd want the money back, so should I immediately request a refund, or to cover my ass, get replacements, then return them? Just don't want it to be too suspicious.
