No,i didnt know they sold used games,thats the first i ever knew
EB Games can be a pain in the but at times but,you can still get the
odd good deals & service. In this case the box i had gotten appeared
all sealed up,no signs of stickers been removed etc. So whoever opened
it before me was very careful to open it. Unfortunately with EB Games
they dont really label large things like this as being used if its returned,
they believe what they customer said,that he didnt want it & dont bother
to check the contents at all.
The other downside to EB Games is that alot of collectors editions dont
come sealed in plastic like other places. Some do & some dont for what
ever reason there may be at the time. RE5 is one example that didnt
come sealed in plastic from EB Games

These CE's are the same no matter where you buy them. If they aren't sealed in plastic, they'd usually have some sort of stickers over the openings. I remember my RE5 has a big Xbox360 sticker over the opening.

In that case it probably got damaged during transit (or from the factory). If everything else is fine, it might be easier just to swap the figurine rather than the whole thing.
