1) Serial number may be a legitimate Apple serial (based on the lookup on Apple's site). This is highly deceptive and often confuses most people.
2) Box and headphones show many signs of counterfeiting. Here are some tell-tale signs:
- On box, the sticker at bottom of the box shows: Compatible with latest iOS and iPadOS devices, Apple Watch or Mac. IOS iPadOS, Apple Watch Mac. This last line is translated into 4 languages in the original and IOS is definitely not misspelled.
- OEM box has AirPods Max Sky Blue with Blue Headband. Counterfeit box as follows: Headphone Max Space Gray with Black Headband
These are not authentic AirPods Max headphones. They are plastic cups on the ear, not "beautifully anodized aluminum cups feature a revolutionary mechanism that allows each cup to rotate independently and balance pressure" (https://www.apple.com/airpods-max/).
- The LED light is blue and red when pairing, while legitimate Apple AirPods Max are actually amber and white. https://support.apple.c
- A tell-tale functionality with fakes it does not support Automatic Switching between Apple devices (Bluetooth connect with two devices and hand-off automatically when playing music or video etc.): https://support.apple.c

Just re-paired them and, sure enough, warranty now extended until July 2026. Not bad for $343. Guess I'll be sending the "Used-Good" purples back once they arrive on Wednesday.
Reset them to factory settings: Press and hold the noise control button and the Digital Crown for 15 seconds.
I'm assuming maybe they were not fully removed from the previous owner account and this may help in getting it to finally be removed? I don't know, I seen this all over reddit, and it worked for me. I unpaired them 5 times and got no notification when pairing the headphones they were linked to another ID.
Grabbed a "Like New" orange set, as well, for $343.xx after tax. Hopefully one of them will work out as advertised.

The ones I got where someone swapped in a lightning pair, ended up being refunded without issues. Thankfully I didn't have any issues there! I lived an hour from Indy, Where it was taken too. So took an day for em to get it, and a day for the refund to come through.

I don't remember the exact verbiage, but, while they were still paired, I got something like "Must Remove Activation Lock before proceeding" when I tried to set up a return.
This only seems valid for items purchased as new, btw. Just tried to create a dummy return for the used ones I'm keeping and no such question was asked.
