Sorry for the delay guy's, this is my first time posting pics.

The engine was ordered via ebay with an importer out of Virginia by the name of Japanese engine import.

the motorset was complete with all sensors, but apparently it was jacked up during shipment.

Has anyone on here experienced this before? should i just call the bank and deny charges?

I have already emailed the importer pics of the damage and he is claiming that i have to file a claim with R & J.

R & J is telling me that i have to file a claim with the importer.

how do i go about getting my money back as swiftly as possible?

the motor was paid for via paypal on my credit card.

try to get your money back considering they dont have your engine of choice right now.

call the credit card company and tell them youve been ripped off and you dont have the product and u want to cancel the charges.

It is for these reasons that I have never bought anything online at all.
