Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch bought from US Aamazon.com not new!
The saving grace with Amazon is that they still have good customer service. Amazon is sending me a replacement order and arranged for UPS to pick up the return item.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch bought from US Aamazon.com not new!
Ordered mine Saturday Ships from and sold by Amazon.com and it arrived today. Brand new AFAICT. Opened it up; joined it to my network; updated firmware; installed EDO, Screen Off and Weather screensavers (thanks triode and bluegaspode); and put it back in the box. My experience with Amazon is that they will do whatever they can to make things right if there is a problem. Just checked and it's $10 cheaper today! Get 'em while you can...

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch bought from US Aamazon.com not new!
My recent Touch purchase was also interesting. My order was not from Amazon, I ordered it from a local Hungarian PC webshop. Their central store is located in Germany. Actually everything looks as brand-new. The paper box was glued down with that round film on the edge. Then the inside black box also glued down. The remote , did have plastic film on the back, not on the front, but as I saw you Youtube unboxing videos, that's normal. The Touch itself had the blue film on the leg, then plastic film on the back, and the black plastic on the front display. The interesting thing was that it had 1 or 2 fingerprints on the display, was not from me, it was under the black plastic. Anyway I don't think it's used. It asked for Mysqueezebox.com registration, I think that's an obvious sign of a brand-new item. batka's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12908 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96431 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch bought from US Aamazon.com not new!
Because of the hassle of sending the Touch back to USA from Japan I opted to keep it and get a partial refund from Amazon. Mine has fingerprints on the screen, scratches and scuff marks on internal packaging, scratches on and around the optical jack, and the power socket shows obvious signs of use. Wrapped in plastic (even the blue stuff), and no problem registering at MSB. However, I am sure a unit refurbished by Logitech would have its MSB account deleted as a matter of course.

Does it work? Any problems? Probably just fine in operation. Might be a return that got mixed up with new product.

Just reporting in -- my Touch from Amazon arrived this afternoon. The box was completely sealed and showed no signs of having been previously opened. The Touch itself was pristine. It started up just fine, updated itself, then connected to the LMS and played fine.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch bought from US Aamazon.com not new!
It's a bummer, as I am in Japan and returning this is going to be a hassle, and won't be cheap. And of course there is a good chance Amazon won't have a 'new' one left to send me. Ggr.. It must be Logitech at fault, as I bought it via Amazon international sales (not a merchant), and I doubt if Amazon would indulge in such crude bait and switch antics.
