why not SE Best Buy?

I have SE'd Best Buy in the past for a minor item but still have the same CC, also don't know how lax or strict they are haven't read much into it.

What hardware are you referring to?

Old scam, get broken tv, buy same model, substitute serial stickers, return. The issue is there are other serial indicators in modern TV's that I'm unsure of. Serial can be viewed through menu settings, for example, but if I can fry the TV to death they might let it pass until it gets processed in returns then I don't know what goes on, whether it's actually inspected or just recycled (I'd hope to avoid rebill in that case). Can't find many recent successes with this though.
