replacement motherboards don't have a ser# when they are shipped. The repair facility is supposed to have a super secret app that will copy over your old ser# to the new mobo. lazy shops don't transfer it over. my MDD duallie got a replacement mobo, and System Profiler doesn't report a ser# any more.
So it is entirely possible that if you have a different ser#, they used a used mobo.
Start to ask some informed questions and see if they squirm.
