Default TNT Landing gear.

Well, i'm sorry to say that for the first time in this hobby, I had a bad experience with a purchase I made.
I bought CF Landing Gear for my Sukhio. After installing it I realized that the CF gear was 1" shorter than the stock gear. This is unacceptable because I barely have enough prop clearance with the stock gear.

I called TNT Landing gear which is where I purchased it from. I explained that the gear was of the wrong dimensions. He said "Well that's how I get them. I can't do anything."
"If you would like, I can sell you a pair of custom made aluminum gear". [>:]

After refusing to buy ANOTHER set of gear he gave me the number to graphtec and said that maybe they will help me. [:@]

To me, that is rediculous. I bought the gear from him (10.00 more) not from graphtech. I cant believe this guy blew me off like that. I didn't raise a big stink because I know how it goes. We argue, he finally says "send them in" then they sit for weeks until he feels like persuing it. I don't want to go thu that.
Hopefully graphtech will be more helpful.

I am sorry but I can no longer spend any more of my money at TNT. I have 2 more planes getting ready for CF gear.

OK Sorry for venting. Has anybody had any dealings directly with graphtech? What can I expect when I talk to them? Thanks
