whitepunkonnitro is a liar and a scammer

No need to apologize for your post.
When a member has a deal go south without resolve after effort on his part to do so landed poor results, HE SHOULD POST.
Your posting this may potentially be problem prevention for someone else after you.
At least folks can make up their own mind from what others have to say.
I personally feel not revealing issues on a used part
and sending it off is dishonest. This is wasting customers money and will lead to these kind of problems. Should never happen. And doesn't to most.
Another issue for me is how a seller conducts the resolve attempt. Making the buyer pay again to return junk seems a ploy with anticipation of him just dropping it. Feels like a scam to me.
Makes the customer think it was intentional.
Particularly when the same situation has been posted
by several others.
Same situation or technique described in the past. Could have been prevented by not sending right from the start.
It may not have happened to all but it has to others and none would like it happening to you.
I like the comment ...step up.
