ST Morality Poll: Situation inside.

Posted by Shaun - Caveman Champion (aka bigshaunu) Mar 9 '09, 18:35

So I purchased a PS3 bundle that Walmart has going on right now. It came with 2 extra games and 3 Blu-rays.
One of the Blu-rays was Blood Diamond. I took this Blu-ray up to Future Shop (which is owned by Best Buy) hoping to get store credit for the unopened disc. I told the CS lady that it was a gift and I didn't want it. She gave me store credit.

On a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is an angel and 10 is Hitler, how morally wrong was I?

- Sorry no nudity. My bad. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 19:03
maybe a 4 or 5. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 9, 18:53

- And on your scale, I'd rate Jack Abramoff around a 7, if that helps. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Mar 9, 18:53

Wait, you are returning an item for full price at a place where you didn't actually buy it, right? nm - ralph wiggum Mar 9, 18:41 6
- Best Buy and Future Shop are essentially, if not functionally, the same store here. - Reagen Mar 9, 18:43 5
  - But didn't he buy the original thing at Walmart? Aren't Walmart and Best Buy competitors? nm - ralph wiggum Mar 9, 18:46 4
    - Shaun put us out of business by doing this to us. -- nm - Circuit City Mar 9, 18:54 1
      - Pfft. The closest thing to CC we have is a bunch of rebranded Radio Shacks. "The Source by Circuit City." - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:55
    - oh. yes. missed that. - Reagen Mar 9, 18:47 1
      - Well, they can if the demand for Blood Diamond is unlimited. :) nm - ralph wiggum Mar 9, 19:08
technically isn't that fraud? s'ok, slick move -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 9, 18:38 2
- Apparently it is. I really don't get how or why though. It's not like it was a stolen item or pirated etc. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:42 1
  - *rats you out to Future Shop for the reward* -- nm - Beaker Mar 9, 18:43

You came by it legally, what you do with it is up to you. Even if it was 'included' you did pay for it :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Mar 9, 18:38 6
- Ah, maybe I missed something there. Did Futureshop believe that it was originally bought from them? - MojaveMeg Mar 9, 18:43 5
  - I told them it was a gift so no receipt. CS lady didn't bat an eyelash before giving me the credit. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:45 3
    - You know what? I change my answer to a 0. It was a gift, so it's a tiny white lie. It was a gift from Sony. -- nm - Redmond Mar 9, 18:47 2
      - that's not a white lie at all, it's a lie. -- nm - loosilu Mar 9, 18:58 1
        
        Naw I have learned from politicians. That is just a little white lie. Depends on what your definitions of gift is. -- nm - Redmond Mar 9, 19:05
  - your IM is my thought -- nm - Beaker Mar 9, 18:44
4 -- nm - Redmond Mar 9, 18:38 8
- And a 10 for horrible movie taste. I bought Blood Diamond on Bluray and it's amazing. -- nm - Redmond Mar 9, 18:39 7
  - I've seen it twice already. Not much rewatchability imo. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:41 6
    - I am in love with Jennifer Connelly so that makes it even better. Did you buy Killzone 2 yet? - Redmond Mar 9, 18:42 5
      - Yep. I traded in the LBP and GT5 at EB straight up for it. But I don't have my hdmi cable yet so I'm not hooking it up fully until then. - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:44 4
        
        Cool beans! Can't wait to play with some STers. *throws grenade at Shaun, hits wall and bounces back blowing me up* -- nm - Redmond Mar 9, 18:46 3
        
        I'll need to adjust to the new controller. I haven't held a PS controller in like 2 years. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:47 2
        
        This is my first time using that controller. I am horrible at aiming the sight. Way to slow, and I often get shot before I can lock it in on my targ - Redmond Mar 9, 18:48 1
        
        I'm glad there's a sort of like a training area to play against bots. I'll need to do that a bit first for sure. -- nm - Shaun - Caveman Champion Mar 9, 18:50
1.5 if that -- nm - Beaker Mar 9, 18:37
3 -- nm - nubby Mar 9, 18:37
You're Hitler and Lenin. -- nm - Reagen Mar 9, 18:36 2
- that second guy (TAR spoils) - prayformojo Mar 9, 18:38 1
  - apparently this season is "watch the racers get laughed at by locals!" - Reagen Mar 9, 18:46
