In my opinion expecting the low cost wholesaler to ship you a new tank on his dime is a pretty high expectation. If I spend $1100 on a Tamiya from the brick and mortor shop, you bet I am going to want complete resolution on my issues. If I mail order a $140/tank from halfway across the country, then my expectations come down a bit.
I have to disagree. It should not matter weather the item is less expensive or more expensive. Damage is damage, regardless of cost.
I have stated my opinion, and understand that many will disagree with it. That is what makes life interesting.
Good news is that you should be able to have this tank back in action.
