Unhappy Got my FD Alternator!







Would I be correct in assuming this doesn't look good?

Damn you, Canada Postal Service..

Ouch. Looks like you need a new arm.

Looks like the housing is OK, and the bolt is just bent.

Definately talk to Tony about it. He takes care of his customers, Always.

I swear my FD alternator saves my life sometimes.. You'll love it once it's in. Good luck.

Wompa164, you got to be the most unusual customer I've ever dealt with. I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish by posting pics of a damaged L Post as a result of shipping.

Didn't we spend the last half hour, via PM's, coming up with a resolvement on correcting the L Post? At any rate, my PM still stands and thanks for backing me guys.

*Also* Canada Post only shipped It to the border - not to your house. USPS took care of It come time to cross the border. So don't be so hard pressed on them. Irregardless, nobody knows where or when the damage occurred.

Tony if you get a broken arm and go to the hospital for a cast don't you show the x-rays to your friends anyway? it is just SHOW and TELL. I doubt he was trying to make you look bad.

And I still owe you a REVIEW. lol!

To further this, you go on to resolve this but you first create a thread on this which appears to me as exploitation followed by a PM. It's a given with the nature of selling online, let alone selling period. Not directly applied to this scenario, but one bad apple ruins It for the bunch.

Woah woah woah.. let's back this train up..

This wasn't an attack on you, Silverrotor. Infact, this thread was created way before you ever responded to my message.

I never once said you were a bad seller or blamed you - infact, dealing with you has been one of the most pleasent transactions (To a point, ) I've ever come across.

It was just unfortunate that this happened. I never even mentioned your name or where I bought it in the original thread.

Just show and tell.
