As a consumer I can verify the car is running, the interior still looks fresh, there are no dings, the engine isn’t missing hoses, etc. I can’t verify the disc hasn’t been scratched lightly until I know the disc reads.
Besides, who cares if the car looks fresh? The doors were opened, and gasp taken for a test drive! So therefore it’s no longer new!
All I’m saying is technically speaking “new” doesn’t mean “absolutely an unequivocally untouched.” It just means it hasn’t been sold or used by anyone else. Open box isn’t “used,” it’s “open box” and effectively new, and can generally be treated as such. You’re free to be skeptical, though, as would I

You can… look at the disk?

Looking at the disc doesn’t always show damage.
Would GameStop take open box as a new return? No. So they shouldn’t see it as new.
I already addressed that and I’m not going to go in circles with you
I got you. I can take their word for it that the disc is perfect but they can’t take mine. Makes sense.
