anyone purchase ANY NEW Motu hardware lately...question

Post by HARDDRlVER »

Hello, and thank you for reading my post.

A few years ago I purchased the new MIDI express XT usb. When I opened the box, I could swear the unit was wrapped in plastic, inside the styrofoam. Furthermore, I also believe like many hardware manufacturers, there was that thin film covering the window.
Well yesterday, I received my supposedly new 828mk3 hybrid and...no, it was not inside a plastic bag, but it was inside the styrofoam... and no, there was no plastic film on the window. How can I tell if this is 'b' stock or a fixed return?
These bags/covers and window stickies would be industry wide, that's why I'm asking anyone who has nought a new motu product
There's also manufacture date on the serial number stickers. With 2 letters indicating date it was made. Anyone know the code breakdown?
Gonna shoot this to the mac side as well.
Thank you for ANY input.
