Exploit best buy?

I bought a muvo nx 128mb last summer and got the two year replacement plan.
The thing is there's nothing wrong with the player right now (hmmm how should the destruction be done??)

and bestbuy doesn't sell the player anymore. They have the rio nitrous for the same price and its 1.5gb.
i could also get any other player buy just pay the difference.

do it?


How about an account upgrade instead?

Wow... is that a permanent ban? Yikes!

I also heard the same thing at compusa from workers... just bring it in and say its not working right.
 
People ask this kinda sh!t all the time yet this guy gets banned while others get away with it. Mods should either ban them all or let it go.

There's a large difference between "My digital camera isn't working right - will they give me a new one or a gift card or will they try to fix it" as opposed to "My mp3 player is working perfectly - how should I commit fraud against Best Buy and intentionally break it to get a better MP3 player"

I'm talking about people overclocking their hardware and asking for advice on what to do or what excuse they should give to the RMA department, etc., etc.

Well that is fraudulent - I thought you had meant all the service plan posts on ATOT.

Presonally I would give those scamming unethical people a week off too. We all pay higher prices for parts because of people like that.

Good thing I'm not the Goody Two-Shoes Mod 🙂
