I have refrained from posting my comments about this thread but I feel this Vendor Bashing has gone on long enough. You got a bad part from a respected Vendor. I didn’t see anywhere that you had contacted this vendor about a refund or replacement. You didn’t even give them a chance to make it right. Your post suggesting not buying from this particular Vendor because they sell parts made off shore is based on your one experience. Our hobby relies on these Venders to supply us with parts that are no longer made in the USA except for a few specialty manufacturers. The Vendors cannot improve their product line without direct feedback from their customers. Bashing them on internet sites is counterproductive. JMO
