I just purchased a used game from their online website. When I opened the game I realized that the cover slip was a photocopied/printed version. I contacted customer service and was told that they copied it for advertising purposes and I cannot exchange the item.
Is it legal for a retailer to sell an item with a photocopied/printed slip cover? Isn't this copyright infrigement?
The other place that sells used games never photcopies games, but sells it in blank cases.

Hello whatmyname
Since you have already contacted Customer Service, we will send this to another section of that department. They will be in touch with you via the email you used in registering for the forum.
