The package was sealed, the device (according to ADB output has no charging cycles) and was obviously never in use. That's what I would call brand new.... But if that's the wrong term and "new old stock" is what it should be called, I wouldn't disagree.
Doesn't matter though, as it's still a perfectly fine device that cannot be updated even though that's only limited because of Verizon's policy.
Since I already updated three other non-verizon Pixel-2s it was surprising to experience locked-down-for-no-obvious-reason devices that can no longer be put to good use.
