An item I purchased from KC9FXZ Danny Vanhyning was damaged beyond repair do to horrible packing. Meters with a glass face were warped in a plastic grocery bag for protection. Then the meter glass face was placed on the edge of another item totally destroying the meter glass and the needle movements. To make matters worse the box used was bulging on the top and bottom due to it being to small.
Since no refund has been issued I have escalated the case with paypal. Sometimes, just by the way a seller responds to emails it is possible to get that feeling in which paypal friends and family should not be used. I got that feeling here and did not do paypal friends and family. This is a first for me with getting paypal involved.
