I bought a video card once at Fry's, changed my mind, and returned it. The clerk proceeded to open it and I told her no no it was brand new I hadn't opened it. She said she knew but they had to open it anyway. She didn't tell me why. Later I found out people would buy something, replace it with junk, seal the package, and return it. Therefore they had to open everything to check. Wow.
