(bcs obviously any seller wont do that, and i live in a country which amazon.com didnt do business directly, most of kindle being sold here are units imported from US then re-sell by local online marketplace)

Only the early kindle models had serial numbers on the box.
A few weeks ago kindles direct from amazon to US addresses had older firmware. If a seller in your country has a KOA3 in stock right now it is almost certainly jailbreakable. I am hoping that when the first kindles with new unbreakable firmware out of the box start showing up it will be reported. So far, that has not happened.
