I just received my 65E7P today from firstclasstvs..It was delivered, taken out of the box, turned on and there was no damage. The box looked good and as if it were not opened. I have not yet installed or used it but there are two things I noticed that might not matter but still are worth just mentioning.

I've never bought any item that includes a remote control that came with batteries installed! That's just flat out strange to me.

Another small detail but there was none of that thin foam that comes on just about all screens and does appear in the unboxing videos that I have seen.

Those are the only things I noticed but while they are small and not important they point out to me that somehow this has been repackaged.

I got this OLED for a big discount but to me clearly there's some reason that is not yet clearly apparent.

I am guessing they are refurburbish or something. Yet even if they are, why are the batteries in the remote and not film or foam or anything on the screen?

it's very weird and I am hoping the TV checks out once I start using it.

If I were buying the B or C versions of this set, I'd rather pay a little more and get it from BH Photo or an authorized dealer.

Since this is the E model with beefier speakers, there's a big premium in price and hopefully this was a good move for me.
