Mis - represented. By NO Means "like new"!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Badly mis-represented. Open Box - described as "like new" it was missing both the calibration mic. and the remote. The box that it came in was beat to pieces and had no fewer than three prior mailing stickers on it. Indicating it had been sent out and refused multiple times. There was even a note on the box stating "missing remote". I will never again purchase an open box item from Best Buy.
