    Don't thank me 'cause I didn't know for sure but I did wanna know what "fresh copy" meant and that was enough to tell others to go away.

    Someone here has GOT to know the guy selling those "fresh copies" on eBay from the Plano location.

    I have seen factory cams come out looking like that too....
