I'm not familiar with them, are you?
They seem like a big ebay seller. and they've been posted multiple times on forums lately ..
1. "Open box" is a broad category
2. TBD on that warranty
headline reads 1 year, but description reads
"For functionality, this item comes with a 60 day warranty from the date of delivery. If a problem occurs, please contact us with a detailed description of the issue so we can assist you. If we are unable to assist, we will issue an RMA form, and in some cases a prepaid label to have the item sent back for a replacement. If a replacement is needed, the same model will be sent."
so...maybe just 60 days? and maybe you pay for shipping.

Was considering paying the extra $70 to get the pristine box and Costco return confidence, since I'm giving this as a gift, but then remembered I don't have a costco membership any more.
I've heard it's no longer a piece of cake to shop at Costco using someone else's membership card like it was back in the day....is that true? If not I will borrow a friend's, but if there is a decent chance I will get a friend in trouble I'll do it some other way or just buy this open box and gift it in the case if the box is a mess.
1) You can do a little better than the ebay price by buying directly from QuickShipElectronics website [quickshipelectronics.com]. Though their list price is $259.99 ($10 higher than ebay), you can sign up for emails to get a 5% coupon which is delivered immediately and brings final price to $247. I learned you have to check out with the email address the coupon is sent to though (otherwise I'd give you my code). They ship quickly via FedEx 2 day for free. I ordered it on Monday 3/17 morning and it was received Wednesday 3/19 mid-day in rural Virginia.
2) The box frankly looks like someone sat on it or played soccer with it -- part of the flap is torn off and the box is sort of squashed and barely still rectangular -- but the interior contents are pristine. Everything appears to be there, memory card still in sealed package, batteries still have the remove-before-use tabs on them. Even the sheet of GoPro brand stickers is in there. The only thing missing I think is the protective film on the camera screen. Packaging is in worse shape than I expected/hoped but contents are much better. If I had to choose one of those to exceed expectations, I'm happy with how it turned out
Assuming it works as good as it looks, a great deal -- just be prepared for a potentially jacked up box if you are planning to gift this. I'm just going to blame it on the shipping rather than admit I bought an open box gift for my nephew
