Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm pretty doubtful he'll be a Man, because I gave him a week to work it out before posting this. Now since my number is blocked, I know he's got his tail between his legs...
Take care,
Wes

For anyone out there if you are buying a trans that supposedly came from us please contact us first, There are id numbers we place on the cased stamped in that will verify wether a trans is ours or not. Who it was sold to and when etc.
I am sorry this gentleman did not get what he thought he was .
Unfortunatley he is not the first and will likley not be the last unless everyone takes a moment and contacts me about it. I will be happy to verify the trans origin for anyone.
Thanks
Frank

Yes I learned the expensive way. He would've probably just send pics of a different trans anyway...

I just would not ever buy something so expensive, that you can't afford to get ripped-off, over the net, unless you do it in person. Even then, the insides could be damaged.

Good luck to all

He "sounded" good when I talked to him, but actions speak louder than words, for sure. Glad to hear you got your situation resolved.

I bought a "pristine" cam on ebay once, only to find when it arrived it had 2 lobes completely thrashed. Lesson learned. I now have a $200 paper weight.
So sorry to hear you lost that much money. Man that sucks.
