Am looking at the G0564...
Crap, just realized I never updated how this situation turned out.
Well they did send another. It got to be with a broken pallet and was tilted over inside the crate and scratched up a bit and had a tiny dent on it. So I ended up swapping the tops (motor, sander, platen, table, etc). Worked out okay since I didn't have remove the base of the first one from the mobile base and the top alone was easier to lift than the whole unit. The replacement upper was indeed much closer to square. Wasn't perfect in one upper corner, but it was close enough. Oscillation was a little low and it looked like the paper was going to work its way off the rollers but that was adjustable to fix. Other than that, I haven't used it much, but it seems to be working out as expected. Fiasco for sure, but after months of dealing with it it all worked out in the end I guess.
If at first you don't succeed, redefine success!
