Can I return an unopened video game bought from another store to Walmart?

I just bought NBA 2K12 from Walmart from $60 and immediately opened it. Right after, someone told that Game Stop are selling NBA 2K12 for $40.

I already went back to Walmart and spoke to the supervisor and she told me that it was too late for me to match their price with the Walmart Ad Match guarantee.

So can I buy NBA 2K12 from Game Stop or Best Buy for $40 and then return that unopened game to Walmart for a money refund? (I have the receipt).

Of course you can. It is a little unethical but so is Walmart! The bar codes on the back of the package are the same for both retailer. Just make sure you get a sealed copy from gamestop since they sell open display box copies when it's the last copy.

Walmart and Game Stop are two separate businesses. You can't return something bought at one place to another shop. How would each business make money from that? Each business buys stock for their own store and goods bought in each place are particular to each place.

i don't think so cuse of the serial code and stuff but you could try and if it dose not work then just return it back to game stop. NOTE i am not telling you to do this it is just a suggestion!!! if you get caught or in trouble or get stuck with two games it is not my fault!!
