Dealers Intentionally deceive Customers with Used/Returned Equipments? Locked

Wow, your box has damage on it that could have come from anywhere, including something you did ( for all we know ). It could have left B&H pristine or even reached you pristine for all we know. Neither we nor B&H can simply take your word for it ( and it's unreasonable to expect them to do that ).

Small claims court exists for people who have exhausted reasonable avenues to deal with disputes peacefully. The internet is not a place to do that and expect anything but arguments.

And as for being hurt by comments you got here, tough. It's an open forum and no-one has said anything to you that wasn't simply a different point of view from your own. If you want to start a public campaign like that, you have to be prepared to take hits and not just expect people support you.

What you did was rant. Ranting on the internet is no different from ranting on a street corner, except that you won't be arrested for disturbing the peace here.

Life Lesson : deal with these frankly trivial problems more calmly and sensibly next time.

In the last two weeks not one, but two of my close relatives have been diagnosed with very nasty cancers and I don't feel half as angry about that as you do about the minor matter of the packing on your lens.

Calm down.
