Is any damage to the box superficial?

Have you kept the product above room temperature? If so you have probably invalidated the warranty.

Go back for your replacement
and if they say "we need the box"
say "take the box off this new replacement one if you need a box to send it back to manufacturers "..
Job done :-)

Will get a refund under your statutory rights regardless of box or receipt.

Spykes. the goods cannot be used for the intended purpose, ie, provide security when applied, so they are not of "merchantable quality" ...fit for purpose.

With a receipt you are entitled to a full refund, box or no box.

Without a receipt (proof of purchase) you have no rights but most, reputable retailers will replace faulty goods without fuss.
