I guess the obvious question everyone is going to ask is From Whom did you purchase it ?

If that happened as you state then it is deplorable and I hope you returned it for a refund, but, 'Beware' doesn't do the rest of us any good without you letting us know things like where you bought it. Was it advertised as new? Was there a warranty, etc?

Life is too short to use the wrong brand of camera.

When in pain, folks sometimes seek a friendly place simply to moan. Hey, I feel for the OP. As for whoever did this to OP, "May the fleas of a thousand mangy camels infest their nether regions."

How do you know that if they did a full function test it would not rack up a shutter count over 4000. That may be the way they do it. They do not reset the count.

If you want to say beware you must say where you bought it and which model of the Leica.
