Hmm.... Mine arrived in good shape.  Didn't check the floppies, though.  Maybe I should.

I might guess that they didn't do so well in the extreme cold we've been having in the Midwest.  I don't think the packing terminals for UPS are heated in any way.

Nope... mine are good.  And it sat out in the cold for an extra day, due to UPS problems.

Back to the ole' drawing board.  Any reason I have a 1.3 workbench pack with a computer with a 1.2 rom, though?  ;-)

@voxel-
Well, sure, it'll work.  I knew that already.  It just seemed strange to me.  I thought all new machines that left C= had the same version ROM and workbench.  I guess that wasn't the way for C= refurbished the machines, though.  Back when I bought my first A500 in the late 80s, it had a 1.3 kickstart with the 1.3 workbench.  My friend, who bought his a few months before I bought mine, had an A500 with 1.2 ROMs and Workbench 1.2 included.  I just assumed all machines shipped with matching kickstarts and workbench versions.
