My ebay feedback on a autometer guage seller

Actually there's more to it than just lost time. Although time is enough IMO. Especially as a Truck driver. My time at home is very limited and precious and I should not have to waste a bunch of it returning used parts sold as new. Plus the disappointment of the used item. That sinking feeling that I just got duped. IMO, more people need to stand up for themselves against stuff like this.

Not a real big deal at all but more a principal thing.

If that's the case, then this whole thing is no one's fault but YOURS. You should be buying your parts locally, instead of dickin around on SleazeBay tryin to save a dollar. I know some truckers and they never get stuff mail order for that very reason.
