hyperbole... but understand your logic.
the seller stands by their sale no problem.
Kobo support makes you jump through hoops.
1. photo to prove no physical damage
2. sitting on shelf is not a really a problem...old inventory is possible.
My issue is with support of the device. Manufacture support. Remember the device forced me to logon to Kobo and d/l the latest firmware BEFORE I could ue it. If the Kobo ecosystem was worried about old inventory it could flag the firmware to not upgrade if the firmware was too old.. avoiding the old inventory problem.
( i have had to upgrade thousands of electronic devices/equipment years behind in firmware not just the Operating system)
Thanks for your input.
