OK I feel better it was in the box correct. For some reason they have this window that should show the mobo but doesn't because they put it in there backwards. I ordered it from motherboardpro.com.

Was it an open box purchase?

No, brand new. I didn't even hook one piece of hardware to it.

The only thing worse is to have no visible damage so you set the whole thing up only to find out the board is DOA.

Just talked to them and they are a bunch of chumps. I knew I shouldn't have stepped outsde my newegg box on purchases like motherboards, gpu's and psu's. They are trying to tell me that we will have to send it back to the manufacturer in China. BLEEP that as I didn't pay for a broken motherboard and I damn sure didn't pay for a broken motherboard that has to be sent back to the manufacturer to get fixed before I even used it.

Well they have just been removed from the list of places I will shop with. I understand that is how dfi works but they should have protection for their customers like freakin replacement boards for rma

FFS, we should make a externally viewable thread about bad retailer experiences so everyone can see that shit. :mad::mad::mad:
