At my EB (which is essentially Gamestop) they always have shrinkwrapped copies of new releases behind the counter for the first month. After that is when they do the gutted new copies, which I think makes sense.

When I worked at EB, we gutted two copies day of to put on the wall.  We never gave out the gutted copies unless they were the last two.  We then told the customer that the copy was gutted for display and we shrink wrapped the game after we took it out and everything was intact.  But I think we did open up a new copy of Halo 3 when it came out to play on the demo 360 after we closed after launch.  Not sure what happened to that copy.
