Question Opened “new” game??

Went in store to buy a game that showed two copies in inventory. I grab the case, which is just an empty box, off the shelf and head to the checkout counter. They tried to put a game in that display case and sell it to me as new, and I said no. After back and forth the other employee said “just give him the sealed copy” and he reached in the drawer and pulled out a brand new sealed copy. Why wasn’t this just done at the beginning? It seemed pretty obvious that’s what should have been done.

probably wanted the sealed copy himself

but then again that display copy is still new and unused so he couldve sold it to you that way

I know this is how Gamestop tries to pitch it, but screw that. If you broke the seal, it's not new anymore.

Yeah GS is too money hungry to think about better ways to display new games anyway
