Default ive been scammed

The turbo was shipped relativly slow and when recieved I didnt inspect it well, until tonight when I noticed the exhaust fins were chipped/broken something that couldnt have happened in shipping, and upon further inspection the turbo has VERY excessive shaft play and there is no way that this turbo is rebuilt like stated in the ebay auction, the comressor fins scrape.

i dont care if he has 1,000,000 positive feedbacks, he still can scam someone dumbass

inspect ---- before you buy, or take the risk of getting ---- on, thats how buying on the internet works

you could have easily asked him for more detailed pictures because you were wondering about the condition of the turbo... if he didnt supply, theres thousands of other sellers with turbos on e-gay that will suit your app just as well
