IIRC they said the reason for return was that they changed their mind about wanting it&lt;p&gt;My guess is that they bought a replacement on Amazon, and fraudulently sent back their old non-functioning one in the new packaging.&lt;p&gt;Amazon gave me a refund without fuss.</text><parent_chain><item><author>eco</author><text>I just ordered a MyQ garage door hub from Amazon Warehouse (listed as missing or damaged original packaging).

I find that about 5% of them are like this - people put either their old item or some other junk back in the box.
