It's hit or miss with Best Buy Open box, sometimes I've gotten stuff that seems brand new, like the buyer just returned it without opening it. Sometimes is basically new, all the packaging is missing, but all the parts are there, not marks or scratches and it all works great. Once or twice I've gotten something that is visibly damaged to the point where I would not want to be the owner, and I had gotten some open boxes where the device does not work at all. Luckily open box items have a longer return window if you decide it's not for you. Answer from GadgetronRatchet on reddit.com

r/Soundbars on Reddit: Open box should I?
November 3, 2023 -
So I was looking at the prices for the Sony ht-a5000 soundbar at bestbuy and on sale it’s $699 but as open box it’s $330 would it be worth getting it open box instead? Has anyone bought a sound bar open box and how’s your guys experience with open box soundbars?
