Should I return this game? (Best Buy)

CAGiversary!
I ordered a new copy of Wolfenstein for PS4 from Best Buy. Got it cheap, because of a price match and a gift card.

I got it, and it was not y-fold. It was in that cheap shrink wrap.

Now, I wouldn't expect a big retailer like Best Buy to scam me, but every single time in the past I've ordered a game online and got a copy of a game without y-fold, they have always been used copies that they tried to sell off as new. Gamestop, eBay, Amazon 3rd party sellers, etc.

I'm not sure if I should open this, then find out it's used, and have to go through the whole song and dance at Best Buy about their return policy for returning an opened game. Should I just return it before opening and swap if for another copy?

No idea, why I'd not get a y-fold copy of the game unless they saw the price and send me a copy from their used inventory as a mistake.

I had a similar situation at Target where I bought a new XB1 COD Ghosts (still had the security seal on the side but wasn't y-fold) and when I opened it, the Map pack and trial were gone. Wolfenstein comes with a code with the Doom beta. I'd just swap it to be on the safe side.

Will they give me a hard time?

Not sure what to say when I return it and ask for a copy of the same game.

You can just return it at cs and get your money back (just tell them you don't want it anymore, etc..) then go grab your own copy and buy it at a register.

I can't, because I got the game for like $10 with my gift card and price matching and they still have the game in stores for $59.99.

Ahh ok, well just tell them you got the game and it looks like it was opened and resealed. Tell them you would be more comfortable getting a copy that was properly sealed. They shouldn't give you a problem unless its the detective type. I doubt that will happen though.
