I'm taking an ethics class. I started asking people this ethics question:

Say you purchase a $900 tablet for yourself with money you saved for 6 months. Three weeks later, that tablet gets stolen from your home, along with over $200 worth of accessories you bought for it.

HOWEVER the accidental damage warranty is still active. You can go and purchase the same model (broken) tablet off of eBay/Craigslist at a major discount of $150 (due to it's brokenness) and then submit it for (free) repair under the original warranty (purchased with a third party-NOT the product manufacturer). You do not have to match serial numbers or provide a receipt.

You CAN get away with this repair. Is this ethical or unethical? Why or why not?

WOULD YOU DO IT?
