If it is brand new I don't think I'm going out on a limb to say you likely purchased it on a credit card.
Many people don't realize that a 'standard' credit card feature is 30-90 day lost/damage/stolen protection. So I would look up your credit card policy and see if it's there and if you could take advantage of that.
edit: oops wrote year not day lol. Also might as well add in that I've used various "cardholder benefits" before. Like the +1 year on warranty, which I used on a Costco laptop once. Costco doubled the 1 year mfg warranty to 2 years, and by buying on my CC I ended up with 3 in total. When the motherboard died 2.5 years in I got a full replacement which obviously ended up being from the newest line and better than what I had!
