The one time my VGC was inactive after purchase, it required talking to the store manager but once he saw their receipt, he just gave me a new VGC.
LOL, if only it were that easy. How do you "show them an inactive card"? How would they know it is actually inactive rather than already drained by you? I would think that these cashiers are trained (perhaps?) to be on the lookout for fraud. I think a big tipoff to a fraudster would be some clown coming in and saying "I bought these cards here and they were not activated, can I give them back to you and get a cash refund?"
