Amongst other things I received from Defender last week was a B&G Triton T41 display. It only had a nylon strap around the box that you could slip aside to open the box. No seal. All the little bags inside where sealed and everything look new.

I would say go ahead and inspect the item to ensure all pieces are in the box and nothing looks amiss. There should be instructions in the box which will tell you what should be included. If anything looks questionable, please send us a photo and we can check on our end to see if that is how the unit should be or not. I do not think what you received is anything used, though, we likely just had to get into an unit box to check on a part. Sincerely,..." >> >>I really don't like this answer.
