Just my luck. Ordered a carrier on amazon. It got here today. No UPC and the box has been opened and all tags have been removed.
Eta that's two now that I've ordered and are missing UPC codes. One from nbd and one from amazon. :-/

Chryssy, that's horrible. I sort think you take that calculated risk when buy clearance/closeout items marked opened/resealed, etc. but no way that should have happened on Amazon.
I buy from Amazon a lot so I know that you will have absolutely no problem returning it for a refund. I am also pretty sure that if you ask for a replacement or reorder it, they will give 0 problems about that. But as a loyal Amazon customer, I am annoyed that they would sell you a return as new and not disclose that fact. If I were you, I would call them. Email will only get you a canned "we're so sorry" response. However, if you have the time and inclination, I would call and speak to manager and really question how they could sell you an obvious return as new. In my mind, that is the bigger issue, not so much the cut-off UPC, as the fact that Amazon is not supposed to be a reseller but rather a retailer and I really makes me question how they do business. Also, I'd ask them for some time of credit/discount for your troubles. Never hurts to ask.
FWIW, I bought my carrier from Amazon as well. It came with tags and UPC code intact. Seems like you got really bad luck, but I think if you try again from a retailer like Amazon, it should work out.
So sorry!
