aye, there's the rub.
i reached my witt's end a couple months ago after buying something sold as brand new only to run the serial # and find out it was manufactured in 2011. i had never opened a case until then, usually just blowing off the chips, stains, etc, not listed, but after that changed my attitude. i document unpacking with a camera these days and support my case with photos the minute the shipment arrives, etc, let ebay sort it out. they do a great job. also, it's usually not with individual sellers, i find them the best sellers, it's the big retail ops that buy shit 2nd hand and sell it new because it has a tag on it.
