Never Used -- in Sealed Box

I usually start to open my stuff while it is still in the UPS guys' hands.I don't know who those guys are;other than maybe "really,really" excellent at re boxing??

Just another of life's perplexing questions: Like if the natives built this monster of a fort;40 ft high,why did they make the doors 40 ft high? to keep King Kong OUT??

There seems to be several variations of this that all are perplexing - "2 yrs old, been in a box for the last 23 mos.", or "one year old - less than 20 hours of use". Who buys a super nice piece of electronics and then never uses it? The only recurring pattern that does make a bit of sense are the ones where somebody buys something, the significant other gets angry, so they sell it almost immediately.

I think that you get dealers of some sort doing this a lot. They buy too many units and need to reduce inventory but they can't sell below certain prices per agreements with the manufacterers thus they buy them themselves using their employee discounts and sell them on places like this. Also I know of a couple of home installers who are dealers themselves and sell new gear below retail. NHT is having a big problem with that one right now, it is easy to find their gear at 33% off on the net.
