What probably happened is that some customer ripped off the CompUSA store by
buying a new drive, and then returning an old drive.  CompUSA is of course
at fault for (1) not checking the return and (2) selling unchecked return
merchandize.  But this is probably a result of negligence rather than fraud
(theft).  If you contact CompUSA by email or fax I think you have a
reasonable chance of getting some restitution -- it's a reputable company.
