    Perhaps the culprit is a member of this very forum, and returned it after seeing how much Pike was panicking about it.
    I'm not going to point any fingersbut perhaps NCG may have an idea who it may have been

    When I saw on Facebook that the $200 was supposedly legit (amusing that it actually isn't, by the way), I could think of nothing but "wtf I want one NOW where do I get my freaking high power coupon of amazing magical love" but now I'm all "Oh ".

    Pike, can you give me a cheap Vita? Pretty please?

    This guy paid on his debit card, which I think may have influenced his decision to bring it back. xD

    Anyways I think what's going to happen is that the store is going to try to send in the coupon and discover it's fake after the fact. But since everyone thought it was real, I can't get in trouble

    If I ever actually used those fake coupons, I would never pay with a card.

    tl;dr I know how it feels to be screwed over, so I don't.

    I'm glad everything turned out okay, Pike.
    I think that's just a bit different though.

    It's different, but my point is that when you do something troutty, you screw over other people.

    I thought most companies only accepted gift cards -- never coupons. Now I know I can get away with forged coupons. O_o

    I'm okay with screwing over major corporations. They don't need more of my money. /honesty

    Good that you didn't get fired though Pike and good that he brought it back although for his balls he should've kept it. Too bad he wasn't clever enough to pay with cash instead of his card.

    The infuriating (not to Piku) thing is he used his DEBIT card; means he had the money to pay in cash the whole time.
