Should I return this Sony a7iii?

[Bernie]

I just received my Sony a7iii less than a week ago.  When attaching and taking some test photos with a newly received Sony 70-300mm lens, suddenly the f-stop was displayed as "F--", and there was no image visible on the display, or EVF.  I turned off the camera and reconnected the Sony 90mm lens, and same thing, F-- for the fstop value.  Since this occurred with two different lenses, the problem seems to be with the camera.  I tried a reset in the menu, but this did not work, none of the menu items would work.  So I removed the battery for about 30 seconds, replaced it, and it's been fine for a couple of days now.

Has anyone else seen this type of glitch in the a7iii??   I did see one other thread regarding the F-- issue.  I'm inclined to return the camera to amazon, especially since the box that it was shipped in looked to be in bad shape, bad enough I took photos of it.

Return it, if the box was in bad shape then it was likely a ‘return’ from another customer.

No, I meant the shipping box was in bad shape, not the box the camera was packed in.  But still, it looked like someone was playing soccer with the shipping box!  I think it's going back.
