Reposting this on a more relevant board:
I just bought a new X11SSM-F-O through Amazon as the seller, and what I received yesterday is a retail box with several scratches, shipped to me in a semi-opened state inside the larger shipping box with the retail box flap bent in several places, with a packaging checklist inside addressed from Supermicro that describes the contents (e.g. "Retail Box for mATX and mini-ITX UP Motherboards", "FOAM 3/4", etc.). It's not how I expected the packaging to look like. Is this truly a new board? Is there anyway for me to know for certain? I've bought new motherboards in the past from different manufacturers and the packaging has never made me question it, but the state of this board's packaging is making me wonder.
