 Agreed! Almost all these things happened to my Blues Blaster. The blue 
paint wore off (something that could have been fixed with a coat of 
acrylic sealant at the factory), the sticker came off, the connector came 
loose (I put it back in place with some epoxy) and the volume control's 
been acting squirrely. Oh, well....caveat emptor!
