Ok, this will sound like an odd story, but I think it's believable, when you hear the whole thing.
A friend of mine asked me on a trip to Gamestop, about a month ago, to pick up some cheap games for his Xbox. It was 3 games, one being Phantasy Star Online for $2. He never picked them up from my house, so one day, I popped the 3 of them in, PSO being last, and played around.
Eventually, at the end of the week, said he wasn't paying for them. So, took the cases back to the store for my $8.
Problem, about 3 weeks later, I pop open my Xbox, and what do I see, PSO disc still in there. After going through my games, I am 99% sure I returned an empty box to Gamestop (they didn't open them there).
Now I do business at this one (it's the mall one, so probably the one i go to the least in the area), but I like the store. It was unintentional, but I feel rather stupid walking in there with a game (and I'd really hate to get an employee in trouble over $2, especially if he covered his tracks).
Morally, you don't steal, and I hate to see morality with a price tag. If this was a $50 game, I'd take it back right now, no questions asked. But, being $2, I almost wonder if I'm causing more harm than good.
Plus, my wife is a very moral person and she says just forget about it, thought I was nuts to even think of taking it back (and she's someone who finds money in a store, and will take it to the security office, in cases someone is trying to find it).
So, probably just keeping it, but wondering what your thoughts are.
