Im the last person in the world to get on someone about stealin' or some shit but dude that excuse is lame as fuck. Noone makes you go to gamestop and gamestop doesnt make you do anything. Take care of your shit in the first place and you wouldnt have to worry about it or find somewhere with one of those scratch removing machines. Or do whatever you want but dont make stupid ass excuses for it.

Edit: To answer your question I seriously doubt they are going to let you buy a bunch of games and return them all for money saying they are all non-working. They will probobly give you more copies of the same games or credit. Or just do a couple games at a time.

That would just make it completely obvious, whether i do it or not (which i probably wont), u could just return games without a reason

Ethical: No

Possible: Sure

Just don't get caught, use multiple GameStops, and take a few weeks/months in between each "return". I don't endorse theses methods in anyway. :evil:

well you don't know much about economy, do you? Because that's just the way of thinking the communists use, and its roots are in lack of knowledge/misunderstanding the elementary facts...

definitely and evil thing to do

but one of the most evil things I've heard about was my friend when he was in America, he didn't own a ps2 and wanted to play metal gear, new back at that time. So he went to best buy I think, bought a ps2 with no question asked 30-day return complete refund. He bought the game and played it before the month was over, returned the ps2 and got all his money back!

can you do that on different best buys and play a single console games with out even owning it? amazing if you can

Unethical at best. Just buy a new game. It can't really cost that much more unless it just came out in which case chances are you can return it.

If you're really that cheap, just pirate it. Then you're not cheating anyone, and since you own a copy already it's completely legal.
