They claimed the console was swapped out for a rock.
Users online weren’t convinced by the tale, with one saying: “Not just the inside, the whole box would be punched out to s**t with the corners and movement of that brick in transit.”
Meanwhile, others claimed a stone that big would “rumble and roll” inside the box.
One said: “The lack of damage inside that cardboard is very sus.”
Redditors commented there would’ve been a lot more “dust and scuff” marks inside the box.
Some joked it was a “rocky start” to the son’s birthday, with one branding the alleged ordeal as “Indiana Jones s**t”.
Some Redditors online said it’s likely the alleged incident didn’t happen, claiming the rock was stuck in the box for a “photoshoot”.
