Funny thing about that, I've scratched plenty of PS3 game discs bought there, and have never had an issue getting them replaced at no cost. All I had to do was send the discs back within a month of receiving the replacements.

Additionally, Amazon is steadily climbing up to Walmart's level (some might argue it's there already) and it IS taking customer satisfaction seriously. And if you're old enough to remember Walmart before Sam Walton died and his bastard kids took over, then it should be pretty clear that Walmart got big because it was so consumer-centric, much like Amazon is today. It didn't start down the path of the evil leviathan corporation until Walton was six feet under and his offspring grabbed hold of the reigns.
