Where did you buy this lens? From a local dealer? On the internet? Do you think you were the first person to open the box?

I've bought three RF lenses and maybe a dozen EF lenses and never saw or heard of such a thing. I'd be concerned about the source and any prior use/misuse of your lens....

When I opened the box I found nothing suspicious about it, everything was in its place and looked fine to me, but to be honest, thats what I currently fear too. I bought the lens in an online store which sells allmost everything (not "the big A", but something like it). I prefer buying at specific photography gear dealers but the 24-105 L is currently out of stock everywhere and this store was the only one who had one. Im currently considering wether I should send this lens back and wait until another shop offers it again..
