Not NIB

[ExactlyMyPoint]

I ordered some extra magazines from a well know online store. When I received them, I noticed that on one of them, the factory seal of the package was broken. It appears that it was purchased, returned and then sold to me. Probably not a big deal, but it does bug me a it.

Does it appear used?
If not, I wouldn't see a problem.

I dunno. Do you think the gun powder around the top is significant?

Actually, it looks new. Not sure why someone would return it, but it was definitely opened.

Possibly returned as defective?

If it's a Glock magazine, let it rip.

I returned magazines once. Ordered the wrong ones by mistake. I broke the factory seal on the package...inserted magazine and realized it didn't fit my gun. I returned my order and placed a new order for the correct magazines.

I got a magazine sent from Beretta that was the wrong one, they let me keep it, and sent the right one. Went on to sell it for $45. That's what I call customer service.

It was for my M&P Shield.

If I'm paying for NIB, I expect NIB. I'm a bit understanding if a package is opened and not used, but if I ordered a mag and there were powder marks on the followers, I'd probably say something.

+1. New is new. Used is used, if even once. What company was it?

[sioux565]

Yeah, what company?

Exactly. If something is listed as NIB, I expect sealed and NIB. I've seen items sold at retailers are "open-box" or "returned" items. Often the "open-box" are just fine, but have been returned because they were a gift, or the person changed their mind or something.

Gun power around the top would indicate a used magazine, right? That or inserted into a really dirty gun? (But obviously not BNIB.).
