It's certainly disconcerting to hear that even Nokia is guilty of sending out used items as new. For crying out loud, why don't they just open up an outlet online that offers discounts for open box items. That way there's no surprises and everyone is happy.

This seller sent me the tablet in a beaten up retail box that had open box written all over it.


I think sellers like this count on bring up their rating by the shear volume of product they sell. 148 Negatives out of 8000+ is still 148 people that were really unhappy.
There are other power sellers out there that still have a 100% rating

This is a solid lessen learned by me, and I hope others reading this don't make the same mistake. The gamble to save $30-$50 sometimes just isn't worth it.

To make myself feel better about the whole situation, I whipped out the credit card last night and ordered a "new" 810 on Lets talk last night. I hope it goes well.
