How do Irving.
Until the lathe is sitting here on my table then I'll be over the moon,but since the money went through all suspicions are very high now ie the guy was playing for time when I was about to transfer paypal money.
Basically this will not arrive monday now but tuesday,if it arrives? he had ample time to contact the collection courier but this is were the stalling game came into play and it was at this point that suspicions became aroused.
As for Harryuk123 sorry but won't be buying from him anymore due to the spindle he sold me.
The spindle was supposed to be new,the spindle was in a terrible state,rusted in the bore and had markings on the shaft where a previous bearing had been located.

Your choice, I've always had exemplary service and goods from him... for me, one incident doesn't rule them out, sometimes suppliers get caught out by their supply chain, stuff arrives wrapped and boxed..they dont inspect every single item unless someone draws it to their attention - its how they deal with it that differentiates a good supplier from a bad one...
