I wonder what Motiv will do in the event identical Serial Numbers are entered for a redemption?
I have seen auctions on ebay for Jackals and Carnages and there is a pic of either the ball, the box, or both, and the Serial # is clear enough ANYONE can see the #.
Just because one is entered first does not mean they are the true owner.
Just because someone has a bill of sale/proof of purchase, that person might not be the true owner of the ball. What if I would have purchased a NIB Jackal or Carnage from any online shop, but before drilling decided I didn't want the ball and sold it on ebay or to anyone? Or, what if I drilled it but have since sold it to someone else? I would think the current owner should be the one to receive the redemption, not the initial owner.
I can envision some not nice natured folks try to round up some Serial #s and try to enter them on the site especially if no proof of purchase is required to be entered. Then it becomes a game of who has the ball for Motiv.
Imagine someone entering Serial #s from balls they used to own on the first day the redemption whatever opens. I am sure bowlers will have a specific window to enter the request for a new ball. Who is not to say that the true owner waits until near the end of the period to enter the info, but if Motiv had already started shipping replacements, they cannot honor 2 replacements for one ball.
EESH. This is a mess.
