Hahahahahahahaha, do explain?

What he said is not going to effect the cost of the system for other people. You don't really believe that right?

This is the only reason I bought a PS3. Couldn't be happier now.

The 360 was a fine system for me, but the freezes and rings of death were a complete dealbreaker. I was tired of sitting on pins and needles babying my system and waiting for it to crap out.

Heat up the serial number sticker and a hot knife and swap the serial number stickers. Your all set once you do that. Target doesn't care if this happens. We all know those systems are going back to Microsoft and Target gets reimbursed.

EDIT- I'm sure they care, but its not really effecting them.

They will check the serial...for the simple fact that you brought it back a few hours later. I would know this as I work in that field. I catch people all the time.

Good luck getting away with fraud. YOU WILL GO TO JAIL if caught. Trust me, I have many reports that in my office from sending con artists.

I doubt many people are going to jail over this.

It affects the bottom line. They get what they paid MS back, but they lose profits because they cant sell it. No profits, no business.

How would you feel if you had a store that always got your money back for (fraudulent) returned merchandise, but never made profit because you couldn't sell it.

One of two things would happen...
1. You would never make money and close the store (Wouldn't happen to Target though)
2. You would stop selling the merchandise due to the overwhelming amount of returns due to everyone committing fraud.

What the hell happened to OS? There has been a recent increase of people supporting fraud here. You guys are sad.

I never said "many". I said you will go if you are caught. If I catch you in my store, you're going, lol. I don't even like loss prevention, I'm more of a law enforcement type of guy. So I look foward to brace souls who think they will get one over on me and fight to get out of the store. I look at it as training before I get into LE.
