I have a lot of Arturia products, software and MIDI controllers, and I really like them. I was looking forward to getting this one. I always inspect anything I buy from 鶹 these days because I've been sent used items, sold as new, in the past. I don't mind buying used gear, but I'm not going to pay new prices for them. This item was definitely not new. The first clue was it did not have a protective plastic film over the front panel, like my Arturia Keystep 37 did. This may be new packaging protocols, maybe not. Then I noticed scuff marks on the upper part of the front panel between the third and fourth track displays (see picture). There were also a couple of drops of what appeared to be dried fluid of some sort on the left side of the front panel. It could've been a beverage. It could've been a sneeze. I don't know what it was, but it was kinda gross. The five stars is for the product which is great. I plan on buying another one. If I could separately give 鶹 zero stars for allowing used items to be sold as new, I would. This is not an isolated incident. Check your purchases from 鶹 carefully.
