I've shopped at some stores like that.  Years ago, I bought a CD from a pawn shop that would do that, and sone time I bought a used CD there that would skip a lot when played (even on a stationary CD player) - I think the CD was just scratched up too much.  I took the CD back to the store where I bought it, and they took the CD out of the case and brought me another copy of the CD they had and put it in the same case and gave that back to me.  For some reason I thought that seemed a bit sketchy at the time, but I guess in the end I still ended up with a good copy of the CD album along with its case and the booklet in the case.
