It's a refurb.
You give them a used phone, they give you a used phone in return. You couldn't possibly expect a new phone.

A white box does not necessarily mean a refurb. It's for replacement iPhones and to save on the costs of fancy packaging.
When I was sent a new iPhone it was in a small black box. Don't know if that means anything or not.
All replacements at the Genius bar come in white boxes (whether new or refurb). All mailed replacements sent via AppleCare come in black boxes (whether new, repaired, or refurb).
Not another one of these threads! Unless +1 ^^^ of course (pics or it didn't happen)....
