Open Box Caveat Emptor!  I was excited at the prompt arrival of the box, but a trifle concerned to see several layers of tape - some adhering, and the rest hanging off loosely.  I carefully opened up the box to find that someone had clearly dumped used and damaged furniture in with crushed dusty Styrofoam. The lamp shade was melted and burned on the inside, and one rib was sprung, so it's oddly shaped, and I am looking for a replacement. The bad news:  open box items are not returnable.  The good news:  Because it was junk, I immediately took it outside for a super cute antique style paint job. It's a nice heavy piece, and I actually like it! However, I won't take a risk on open box again.
