I feel you're morally expected to take advantage of stupid policies. This is even more clear when the policy is greatly beneficial for yourself.
What you're hurting is a big company that's already trying to take advantage of peoples stupidity, in this case by charging more for inferior technology. You're basicly just returning the favor.
I speak fluent sarcasm.

Was it the last one that had in stock?

If not, I don't see a moral dilemma. You aren't hurting their bottom line whatsoever unless they lose a sale because they didn't have any in the store.
Do you really want chat rooms?

Maybe. If they had wraps in the factory then someone would still have to go through the effort of rewrapping all the pieces and retesting them and then printing new documentation though. You can't sell an opened product the way it is and it costs the company time and money.

The point of the return policy is to not rip customers off and to have competitive customer satisfaction. Not to let people constantly rent and return stuff.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I see no problem. If best buy doesn't like it they can change their return policy at some point.

What about little johnny with the paper route who wants to be the next starcraft 2 pro-gamer and goes to best buy and his graphics card is used without him knowing??

anyways i like this blog because it reminds me money is arbitrart even though everyone acts like it determines how good of a person someone is.
hold on! i'm callin' you back to the pool, and we'll dazzle them all!
