When I did I first noticed that the seal had been broken and was not even there but was sticky and dirty like it had been ripped off.

“Right away, I called Apple and supposedly they will send me another one overnight as soon as FedEx takes delivery of this one,” pcmommy explained. “I am disgusted!

I wonder if they are opening other boxes too,” the upset customer's post ends.
