Ordered thinking i was getting new... - SIG SAUER Alpha Aluminum Tactical Rifle Scope Rings

So for starters, these rings are awesome. First time I was mounting a scope by myself, and it was a breeze to level, and get setup. Only problem will be with Optics Planet. I ordered thinking I was getting a new item, but it was definitely an item that someone has opened before. It came in what I considered the original packaging, but it had no literature/manual/instructions (kinda hard when you are doing this for the first time), and the package was being held together with scotch tape. I called Sig Sauer, and asked if this was the way they shipped new packages and the customer service person said no. So I just asked him what the torques for tightening down the screws were, he told me and I was off to the races...Didn't feel like calling optics planet, explaining that I got an opened item, sending the package back and having to wait to get another scope rings. They didn't have any scratches on them, and the screws were not stripped, plus the price was about 20-30 bucks cheaper than elsewhere...needless to say, they are working great.
