I told them the serial number and they told me it was bought from Currys in Hamilton, they then gave me the date and time of purchase.
Much more info can be embedded in the serial number than you think, obviously this depends on the stores system, all they need to do is scan the incoming product then when they scan it on purchase they will know when and where it was sold.
