as some of you probably know i've parted out my ex's and purchased a yfz. I thought I was on the way to having not a single selling problem. Looks like I though wrong :grr: I guess thats what i get for selling parts on ebay.
it was a 400ex works ultracross rear shock. it was pretty mint and a helluva deal for $300, heres the ridiculous e-mails they sent me:
Dear Seller, I am the recipent of the works ultra croos rear shock. we just received it today and we were a bit disappointed. It appears to be beat up pretty good in areas that the photograph did not show. Would you be willing to take this shock back and or would you be willing to pay for works to rebuild the shock and replace some severly worn components? Please help, your description of the item made it sound like it was in excellent condition. I appreciate you help on this sale resolution. Little smokey 78
Dear Seller,
I did not install it on my ATV, just received it on Wednesday afternoon. The
preload adjustment ring is worn down pretty far from adjusting it with a
screwdriver verus a preload tool. The threads or "clip grooves" are striped in
some places as well. It appears also from quick adjustment with a screwdriver.
the chips on the spring do not concern me all that much, they just are not that
great looking.
The rubber bumper is intact but is deteriating from weather and has tiny holes
in it. I compared it to my front works shocks bumpers and it needs to be
replaced. If you are willing to take this back I would appreciate it very much,
and if not would you please consider paying for works to re build it with fresh
parts?
Thank for your consideration.
