Sapphire nitro r9 390 package was strange and need help.

[Syrus Hussain]

So i just got my sapphire nitro r9 390 and immediately i noticed a few things off with the box. Theres quite a dent on the corner of the box and there another on the back. I think thats fine because of the foam inside the box but i just saw the sticker seal looked already open. Should i be concerned? Everything looks fine from the view of the little window but theres also saw dust in the sticker as well. I already sent an email to scan.co.uk about this. I asked my friend and he said it should be fine but im not sure. What are some people's experience with scan.co.uk and their returns?

Edit: Mobile typing

Doesn't give you a strong feeling of confidence in the card being unused, does it? I'd probably return it for exchange if they allow that. If they give you a hassle over it, then test the card with a stress test like Furmark to be sure it is OK.

you have receive a open box test her and if you find something ask for a exchange for another non tampered box .

Ok thanks for your guys support. I'm definitely going to return it now. Im really disappointed about this, waited a week for this to come as well.

Hi Syrus, sorry to hear that you too are seeing something a bit strange with your Sapphire card. 3 vendors, 4 cards, hmmm...
