Pentax A30 - suspicious

Hi! I don't know how many people have the A30, but if you have please don't be shy in offering a poor college student some help.

I just opened my pentax today and was wondering why the box and bubble wraps weren't taped. I ignored that and still thought it was brand new.

It was when I stuck the battery inside the camera and it turned on that I knew something was wrong. I have to ask if anyone's screen when first turned on has "New York" as its hometown option?

And does this mean that I have a used camera?

Thanks,

PUR
