IMO sealed box might be the way to go. You could maybe get away with boxing particularly if it's a small laptop.
I was also thinking the leaking battery might work if you can get a photoshop done/put water underneath. I've heard baking soda makes a good substitute for battery leakage but idk if that's for LiOn batteries.
You could also try convince them to send you an advanced replacement because you bought it as a gift for your elderly Grandad/dying brother or that you really need it for work and that your boss is really getting on to you about it. Idk play on their emotions. AR originally paid with VCC to a drop and you'll be sound.
Alternatively, SE an easier item then use that money to buy the laptop. If the store sells CPUs they'll be 10x easier to box etc.
