It's a brand new product in the original packaging - what's there to complain about?!
This is in full retail product packaging, with all manuals and installation guides. Derailleurs are a pain in the butt to install, but they're less of a pain when they have all the proper installation guide stickers still on them. This derailleur works great, has less resistance on shifts than the older 3500 series part, and I'm perfectly happy with it.Just be careful when installing it - the black paint scratches VERY EASILY, and the set screw that spaces it out from the seat tube - I made the mistake of taking that screw out completely during installation, and upon trying to re-thread it, it could never find the threads properly, so I basically had to drive it through until it threaded itself. Not ideal, but the derailleur works properly, and the set screw is still able to do its job, too.Recommended.
