I Got Scammed Into Buying Used Nathan Drake Collection... AGAIN!

Just a few days ago, I started this topic:

Groupon had the Nathan Drake Collection at a great price. I get it today in the mail and it's a "not for resale" copy with a barcode sticker over that part of the game case and the game has been heat-sealed back up. This isn't the first time this has happened. Before it was from Newegg.com that did this to me...

Both times, the game was advertised as new. Seriously, wtf? I apologize to everyone who took advantage of the deal after I posted it, thinking they were in for a treat.

No way you could of known, don't sweat it. This is the first i've heard of it from Groupon so at least we are in the know now.

A third-party vendor on Rakuten did this same thing a number of months ago.  I pitched a fit at them and they ended up refunding my money and never asked for the game back.   It seems like there's numerous copies of them out from PS4 bundles and other areas you'd expect a NFR copy.

For free, I can deal with a NFR copy of the game.
