I remember a scam in the 90's where people would buy a chainsaw, take it out of it's case, replace it with a brick and return the brick filled case for cash, then sell the chainsaw elsewhere for pure profit. the manufacturer complained and told Walmart they needed to have there employees check the returns, Wally said FU and quit carrying there brand. that's why so many larger items now have a tag inside telling the purchaser DO NOT RETURN TO PLACE OF PURCHASE, with an info number.

Yeah he probably went into the security video office to check if you were the one took out the piece.
I got a Transformer Alternator once at a discount because it was missing the gun. The manager knew it was already stolen before I got there. Plus I mailed it back to Hasbro & they sent me a brand new one with all the parts.

Yes OPEN IT!!!
