Start going to physical stores again...it will prevent literally all of it. You're better off this way anyways. You can actually see when things are literal garbage BEFORE buying it instead of having to deal with some companies garbage phone support or whatever robot crap they use to process returns.

Only reason I use best buy is price matching Amazon. It goes to the store I can pick it up there have done this with tvs stereos the lot. And best part. If you had to order it they deliver to the store if it's broken or any problems you can refuse delivery there and then with no fight it's still in the store.

Luckily Apple uses UPS in my area, and there delivery windows are inaccurate as fuck.
