Help- Who Bought Nuvi 855 on Amazon? Mine isn't sealed when came in? Who ordered this product on Amazon?

Mine was sealed in plastic so I would think your's is either used or tampered with in some form.

Wow, this is bad news indeed. There might be a way out of this. Try a hard reset (the directions should be in the quick start manual, as the reset may be different between Nuvi's). If you can't find it, try holding the bottom right corner of the screen when powering in on to see if that works. Of course, if the hard reset fails to solve your problem, exchange your unit.

I don't understand why you ask this question, but here's the answer. If you buy from Amazon ("ships and sold by Amazon") it will be a new, factory sealed box. If you buy from other vendors (for example, Beach Photo), you should check with them before ordering. In my experience, most vendors will state that their product is "refurbished" if it is not a new, sealed product. In any case, you can return the product within 30 days from most vendors (check to be sure that's the return policy if you're not buying from Amazon). I hope this answer helps.

Did you purchase it from Amazon or from one of their sellers? I know a lot of other stores or re-sellers (best buy, j&r;, etc..) have this in stock. What's the deal with Amazon?!?!?

It isn't out yet. It was supposed to be available between Nov, 15 and Dec. 4, but just yesterday Customer Service told me they had an update from Garmin and they are no longer giving an 'available' date, it's changed to 'we'll let you know.' The vendor has also changed. I canceled my order for the 2350 LMT and ordered the 1450 LMT. I can live without what the 2350 will have (whenever it's available), and the 1450 has a 5" screen. Currently, Amazon's price on the 1450 is $50 less than list, but since the news about the 2350 is getting around, the price of the 1450 has gone up $17 in three days. It isn't out yet.

I suggest contacting the seller to let them know, there may have been a mix up/mistake with the packaging. If the seller is uncooperative or doesn't respond I would contact Amazon and see what options are available to you in this situation.

Garmin provided a new firmware update for the 855 on 28 Dec. One of the listed fixes was for stability. You can get it here: http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=4437Hope that helps!

I have purchased two of the 750gb drives via Amazon.com (Amazon.com was the direct seller, not a 3rd party seller) and they were both new/sealed. And unless you already know this; I have been told from a Amazon customer service agent (live phone call) that unless the Amazon product page says refurb, then the item is brand new; Amazon "direct sold" items are always supposed to be new. This of course does not have anything to do if you are looking at items sold from one of amazon's many 3rd party sellers.

Did you buy it from Amazon fulfilled by Votex Cable? I bought one and it came in a plastic bag without case. I wonder if I got a counterfeit product.

I have called amazon 4 times now... nobody knows anything! It says all over the internet that the Samsung models HAVE been released, and it's the Acer ones that have been delayed... no one seems to know anything. I'm tired of checking my orders 20+ times a day, I'm ready for them to ship it! I mean I preordered it June 9th and everything... it should've been delivered to me tomorrow :[

I just bought the Garmin 255 and found out it has no maps downloaded.I thought it would be ready to go out of the box.It was a re-furbished unit,but I was under the impression it had everything ready for business.Was I wrong in my assumption?silverado_03

Hi, I'm having the same problem but after using it for few months. Not sure what to do now. Do you know if I should contact Garmin or Amazon?

FWIW the current product status page shows a 'real' shipping/in-stock date of 10/26! Although ... as I understand it, price fluctuations are only honored if the pre-order was made 30 or less days prior to the ship date. That said, Amazon does seem to have a fair price on this device, assuming it's the US-3G version! And I'm personally waiting for the N85 myself, but might end up being tempted to get this N96 if the N85 continues to be delayed (US version)

I purchased my unit on Sept 13th, and it got shipped earlier this evening(Sept 15th). This albeit the fact that amazon still reports this product in "pre-order" mode. I anticipate receiving the product Sept 19th. Hopefully will post a review soon.

Mine was sealed and exactly the same as if I picked it up at the Apple Store. Amazon is an Apple authorized reseller.

Same here. I have 2 bags currently and neither have a "packed on date", just some type if bar code. It seems like Amazon should be answering that question. I would like to know that as well.

engadgethd.com and dailytech.com both have articles that this item was recalled by ATI.I was at Best Buy here in Vegas yesterday (9/27/06) and they had some on the shelf.There and Amazon are the only places I have seen them so I'm going to assume it was just an oversight by them and will wait for the new ones to come out.
