I'm not too worried about it-- I was looking to buy a used one anyway-- I haven't seen it yet so I can't say for sure, but maybe they just opened it up to take off the UPC for a rebate or something-- I've got a canon printer sitting in a dust pile for that exact reason-- my camera was CHEAPER if...

Well my sister got it for me, it's still with her, haven't come up with a good enough reason to make the 2 hour trip to pick it up yet :rolleyes: She said the box had been opened but everything was still wrapped in plastic, never been used. The house she bought it from was only like 2 blocks...
