I think one of the reasons they 're-inspect' them is to make sure UPS or Fedex, etc. hasn't damaged them during transport. Also I would think they want to make sure that the trip overseas by Freighter hasn't damaged them either.

I think it's a good idea to re-inspect them upon arrival at the Buena Park facility. It doesn't hurt for one and to re-inspect them gives the assurance to both Yammie and the customer that quality control is attended to and each and every Tyros(2) is in 'ship' shape and ready to be delivered to Retail outlets.

And don't worry either. Yamaha U.S. personnel are experts in re-packaging products so you would never know the difference between the boxed version and the "re-boxed" version that hits the stores.

Best regards,
Mike
