But what if some poor child sees that and begs their mommy for it, only to be told it doesn't exist?

It's simple, really; just honestly ask yourself if you'd want to be on the receiving end of such a prank. We should all do our best, to treat others as we would want them to treat us.

Again I'll state, what I do is an act of desperation. I don't intend to hurt anyone.(In fact I hope the games I traded are NEVER sold).
I may share some of my fakes with friends and family members, so that they too can get some extra cash to help them out. Sadly I know a good few people who are financially crippled, such as my own brother... :(

One should never be desperate to go well out of their way and try to scam someone like that.
If your really hurting for cash that much, maybe you should take a second look and try to prioritize a little better. Pretty sure gaming would be at the bottom of my list.

lol. Hell yes I would. A mindless prank like this would be great. It's not like the phone calls that actually prevent you from performing your job and tie up the phone lines. It's not like you have to clean up a mess if someone throws glitter around the store. You don't have to call security or the police because someone's disrupting business or knocking over magazine racks. Short of the insane customers like I mentioned before, this is a pretty harmless prank and I'd laugh my back end off if someone was to sneak a Halo 4 for the PS3 onto the shelves of the store I work at.
As for those insane customers... if they're not going crazy about the face copy of Street Fighter vs. Mortal Kombat, they're going to be *****ing about something else...
