    I would have to agree...

    My V1 was flawless when I opened the box. All accessories were still in plastic bags. Not even a fingerprint on anything. V1 box was perfect as well. The only thing that seems "used" is the Manual, which is very slight.

    That's right boys and girls.... I am a new owner of the V1. I ordered a Returned Unit for $359 on Monday Morning, and 2nd day shipping for $13.50. VR shipped it that day and I have been using it today! 8)

    I had to find out for myself if the V1 is worth it. :wink:

    Me either, but I have not heard of any V-1 owner complain that he got a crappy returned unit! If it were true the guy would have posted it and he voted that way.......

    its just the others playing a Joke

    Well that's not cool, in the sense that I was talking with Air last night and he was wanting to know to buy new or used. I told him to buy "used" to save the guy some money, I don't want to look like a liar. :?
