I have to agree, this sums up his "new" way of doing business. I have bought from him at Carlisle in the past, but he had the parts in hand. I have since bought several on e-bay and he shipped quickly. There was even a problem/misunderstanding on one of our parts )I don't remember his or my fault) and he promply corrected it. If it looks right in the picture, it's probably right. Note: When buying at flea markets or swap meets, see if the box has writing on it. If so, it's probably an old warranty part and no good. These parts were taken out of cars with a warranty problem and saved for the District Reps visit. After he verified the claim, the part usually was trashed, but many now show up for sale.
