Kid gets phone book instead of PS3 for Xmas

It's certainly not the first time we've seen someone open the box to a pricey gadget only to find their hopes and dreams dashed by some unscrupulous individual that's swiped the device and replaced it by something similarly weighted but decidedly cheaper, but it just wouldn't be the holidays if we didn't bring you another account of the same wrong-doings happening again. This latest one comes to us from Thousand Oaks, California where one kid opened the box to the PlayStation 3 he got for Christmas and found a phone book in its place of his desired console. What's more, the PS3 wasn't bought on eBay or out of someone's trunk as you might expect, but at the local EB Games, where the kid's parents are apparently now doing their best to get things sorted out.

As long as it's a nice phone book, i'd be hard pressed to choose between a PS3 and a nice phone book.

You wanna see pissed, wrap a PS3 up in an Xbox360 box and give it to the kid. You might get tears

With all the overheating issues a lot of 360s are having, there will be tears soon enough... :)

Maybe he can go outside and play.

Looks like someone gave him the same shirt I bought myself.

Looks like the kid will be able to look up someone who cares.

Baraka: HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Oh, snap.

I had something similar happen to me, it was a product that I purchased at straight from the store. The manager was awful when I tried to explain and return it.
