In what way do you mean ? "static conditions" and "fully "working"

I agree! I would have passed on it as well! But I would have also
repaired the stick if I couldn't have returned it under warranty! If
the decoupling caps came off as easily as you describe, then I would
say that it wasn't manufactured properly!!!
