    It’s not fucked up at all. Doing a charge back for what you did is basically stealing. You kept the game and got your money back.

      If it didn’t work and there were no refunds, then what the hell else do you do? There was stealing, but it wasn’t this guy.

      I only kept the game, because they have no mechanism for returning it. I didn’t want the game.

      You’re also ignoring the power dynamic here. The consumer has zero power in situations like this. A charge back is one of the few tools we have to try to avoid being taken advantage by corporations.

      What, am I going to sue Sony Computer Entertainment, and best them in court? Or is it more likely that they’re aware that they hold all of the power in this dynamic?
