Just call AppleCare support (1-800-275-2273) and Apple will quickly ship you a new pair and they include a box for you to send the defective/broken/battery-degraded ones to them. It's that simple. I've done it many times with iPhones and AirPods over the years.
Best to do it right before your AppleCare+ plan expires, and claim battery is poor, so that way you get a fresh pair + charging case with brand new batteries right before the 2-year AppleCare+ plan expires.
The batteries in these things are tiny, and they're the first (and most likely) things to go to shit after a couple years of moderate-heavy use. With AppleCare+, you're basically guaranteed these are gonna last you 4-5 years between the original buds and the last-second AppleCare+ replacements. It's for this reason that I highly recommend getting AppleCare+ for AirPods specifically. Other Apple products aren't as necessary.
You're welcome.

I wonder what happens if you pull the trick you mention, call apple and tell them battery life is "bad" at the 2 year mark and they receive them and they test good. Never had an issue?

If you have an AppleCare+ warranty for your AirPods, they will send you a new pair of AirPods and charging case if you call them and claim the battery in your AirPods and charging case are shot and don't hold a charge worth a damn anymore.
I've done this twice for 2 sets of AirPods I've owned. Don't go to an Apple Store, call 1-800-275-2273.

Your AirPods batteries will be less than 80% of their capacity after 2 years of heavy use, maybe worse - and the warranty covers that.
Returns fraud is buying a new product and returning your old, used product of the same model.
Nice attempt at trying to sound like the smart guy in the room, though.

You can buy it when you buy the AirPods, or you can buy it within 60 days after purchasing the AirPods.
In the case of Costco, they bundle AppleCare+ with the AirPods and include it in their price.
