I used to do that with the Wilsonville Fry's, except it was AGP video cards for CGA and EGA adapters we had piled up. I did it three or four times over the years, my roommates have all done it...you'd think they'd check the box. But I guess it's a vicious circle, since often times those boxen with the exchanged cards are put back on the shelf, so someone else has to legitimately exchange for the real thing. > I haven't used a modem in years, and last time I bought a custom box I > told them to leave the modem out.
