don't forget the institutional fraud enabled by their return policy. A customer could buy, say, a brand spanking new hot video card, install it at home, put their old one back in the box, then "return" it for a refund. Fry's would take it back, shrink wrap the box and restock it and never label it as returned goods. This was common enough for people to have customer service open up the big ticket items to verify that it was what it purported to be.
