LOL! They better find out who's doing this.

"After investigating the issue internally it appears one of our long term partners mistakenly shipped a small number of demo boxes instead of functional units."

For fucking sakes, put the word DEMO on the box to differentiate the difference.

What is the point of a demo box. Is it suppose to demo packaging the item or taking the item out of the box. If it is suppose to just sit on the store shelfs and say you need to get an employee for a real one, why not some generic weights or totally empty?

It's corporate crap that they can use at low-security expos and hand around to pointy hair bosses to fondle.
