    Sounds like you got ripped off. I'd call them about it and/or return it for a refund

    Go into your local store and let them know whats going on and switch it for a new one.

    Yep go straight to the store and ask to speak with a manager. Explain to them that you got the box and it was already cut(the tape). Some reports were that the keys were a bit loose, but not a major problem.... But not having everything is the box is what worries me. I would also like to mention that even refurbished units have fully taped boxes.

    Since it was shipped Fed Ex they would not open the package, is highley unlikely that the box would be open by inspectors, that is more in USPS....


    Well good luck and get down to the store... Take all paperwork with you as well.

    Dang..full price..whew..
    I have the world phone and I'm waiting to pick up a curve (need a camera more than I thought)
    Hopefully the prices come down with the hoopla of the newer phones.
    Glad it worked out for you though!

    The same thing happened to my company when we bought company BB phones from verizon, our company president not only called CS but also wrote a letter, and went down to a verizon store where the manager not only applogized but gave us free stuff.
