In all honesty though, I would have to agree with him and I did have a XXX15 and while it is "possible" for the shipping container to do that it would be from the buyer taking it out and putting it back in and what not...
not to mention a NEW one for pretty much the same price will come with a warranty, I doubt yours does... I think people need to understand more that "like new" is NOT new.... buy a brand new car, drive it a mile down the road and see if you can get close to the price you paid, and those warranties ARE transferable unlike most car audio warranties...
EITHER WAY, HE HAD NO RIGHT DUMPING IN YOUR FS THREAD....
