ShopliftingWhen I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

An XBox 360 from PC World - kind of.Background - I finally got round to getting a flat screen HDMI bells and whistles etc TV for christmas.
Noticing that the XBox now came with HDMI, I thought I'd get a new one (as my current XBox only has YPbPr), and sell on the old one. Buyer lined up for it and and everything.
So, I got the new XBox, with Viva Piñata and Forza 2 included and get it all set up, except Viva Piñata wont' run. I took the disc back to PC World, who couldn't change the disc as they didn't have another - I'd have to bring the whole console back, get a refund, and get another console.
OK, I can handle that.
So whet gets put in the Box? The old console, power supply, controller etc, all having had a bit of a clean. And first words to the CS drone? "I got this a couple of days ago, the game doesn't work and I was told to bring it all back, but look, it has a broken QA seal under the one I opened (it did, I didn't stick another one one myself), could it be this is one that has been returned before? I'm not too please at the idea of spending that much money on something second hand when a new one costs the same"
Et voila, money back and a brand spank XBox 360.
