Zowie mice arent as easy to find apparently. I bought mine through Amazon, the company selling it is actually 3cworld.

Anyways, to make a long story short my mouse came in a white box (not black like every single unboxing video shows) and also, the lip of mouse2 sits about 1mm higher than mouse1, a slight cosmetic flaw.

So the slight cosmetic flaw and white box has me thinking i received a mouse that had been sold before, used, returned, repackaged and resold to me.

What do you guys think?

Got a picture? From the sounds of it, I'd say it's something worth checking out with Amazon since they have an amazing return policy. But a picture would probably help more.

I have gotten a couple Logitech and Microsoft mice that way but they were marked oem.

I have never seen or known anyone who bought a zowie, so no idea what their story is. I looked at the zowie web site and they don't seem to have any retail presence in north America, so there is at least a slim chance you got some sort of grey market item. I would contact the seller and ask them why it didn't come in retail packaging.
