They must enter a unique switch serial number (that corresponds with inventory) to make the purchase? Don't see why it has to be contigent on a subscription.

That would work if serial numbers weren't visible without even opening the box the device came in, and I'm they are even included on the receipt for the device. Scalpers would absolutely have a ton of serial numbers just lying around from unsold devices, or even devices they sold and just hope the owner of won't bother attempting a purchase of the thing they are scalping.
