If I could, I'd give this a ZERO star rating for the company, but still a 5-star for the manufacturer.
I have been waiting for an opportunity to evaluate this product from the day I received it.

I ordered two Intermatic FD30 30-Minute Spring Loaded Wall Timers, one White and one Ivory, the white one was fulfilled by Amazon.com LLC, and deserves a 5-star rating which I will give in another evaluation.  The ivory one fulfilled by Global Electrical Supply is a different story.

I have always put high trust in Intermatic products, and went out of my way to find these Intermatic timers.
However,
- The ivory timer fulfilled by Global Electrical Supply came in an orginal box, but the cardboard is discolored from age.
- Although the lid to the box was sealed shut with a small 1/2" wide, 1" long piece of celephane tape, the inside of the lid had "FD430M $50" hand-printed in pencil.
- The plaster ears had been cut off with some type of cutters (usually in rare cases when plaster ears need to be removed, they are bent back and forth to break them off, leaving a dull edge, instead of cutting them off with a tool, which leaves a dangerously sharp edge at the cut.)
- The surface around the holes where the power wires are to be inserted on sides of the timer show minor surface scratches where wires were apparently moved around fishing for the holes, instead of looking directly at the holes and inserting the wires directly into the connection holes.
- When I tested the unit for operation, the ON condition of the timer was intermittent.
- This timer had definitely been previously installed, removed, repackaged into the box, taped shut, and eventually sold to me as new.

I will remember the name of this supplier, and never order from them again.
