So last week, Gary posted a link to ebay. Uhaul was selling off 3 "New" IP's. Seeing as I need a new IP, and the price was right. I jumped all over it.
Finally got it today.... and I'm pissed:
As you can see from the photos, someone dropped it while packing it up... (the shipping box and packing were in pristine condition so FedEx didn't do it) then drug it around for a bit, you know just for fun. It's got a second skin of metal filings, then there's the Diesel Logic rebuild tag. So, not new. Not new by any definition.
Can I trust this pump to run after being dropped pretty hard, and stored in a bin of oily metal shavings? (all the caps appear to be intact) Am I just being pissy about the "new" tag on the listing? $505 shipped is still a steal for a rebuilt pump after all. I am going to sleep on it, and cool down so I can talk civilly to them tomorrow. But what would you guys do?
