The reason I proposed that the factory warranty might be voided is that most gun owners lack the proper hollow-ground screwdrivers needed to avoid "Bubba-ing" the screw slots. That is a dead giveaway that someone untrained has been inside the gun.
I too wondered if the return was to Smith & Wesson or the seller.
I've had three experiences you might call negative out of several dozen GunBroker purchases and all three were handled to my complete satisfaction. You have to buy from sellers with a good track record who offer a return policy and pay with a credit card. Do those three things and you're usually in good shape but if things go south, the credit card company will be on your side.
