Wow, I don't really like jumping in on cock throwing fights, but.... In all seriousness, there is way too many variables to say the product was shit and sent knowing it was shit. I've worked in the performance industry for quite some time now and seen my fair share of fuck UPS and defective parts. Here are some scenarios that may have happened. While shipping, the product may have been mishandeled and damaged. Who hasn't seen that? The product may of have not been as described the first time it was purchased, never tested and passed on with the same good faith that was previously thought. Installatikn error. Any tech out there has messed up a job, messed up parts, etc. No tech is perfect. That's the bottom line. It is not impossible, no matter how reputable the shop is.
It's up to us as buyers to fully think out the consequences if buying used goods. Why? Because its exactly that, used. We cant shit on the seller completely because deep down you thought of the risk and in the end pulled the trigger cuz we said fuck it. If it works, it works. I went through this before and bought a product that was not as described, but it was an exterior part. Not mechanical. Obviously it was easier to call out cuz the defects where clear and visible, but for you there is way too many what ifs.
Only thing I can really say here is the proper approach would be to contact the seller, say hey this thing isn't working right what can you do for me? Maybe a partial refund, who knows... Looks like that ship has sailed though and is past that. Most the times we will get a sorry its a used part, then it is what it is. That's what I've learned through these years of buying and selling parts on the forums. It's up to us as buyers and sellers to make these for sale sections worth it. As buyers, we gotta be honest and legit. As sellers we have to set a limit to how far are willing to go on a used part....
