    How stupid are the stores though for accepting these as returns. Most are clearly obvious going by the packaging artwork and the way they're stuffed inside.

    It does seem a bit bizarre that people would take that risk. I returned an item to Toys-R-Us just last week (I promise it was the real item!) and had to show my drivers license and sign a return docket.

    Must be some sloppy returns practices at these stores.

    There's probably a lurker out there who's getting their kicks out of our reactions
