shame it has happened and im glad you were able to fix the issue but I have to ask.
Did you not open the box and go through the contents before you made the purchase? My LHS always makes sure the item is perfect before I leave the store

maybe im lucky and a bit spolied since we have one of the better hobby shops on the east coast
Diablo
I get up that way from time to time. Would you mind sending me a PM w/ name and address of the shop?
Thanks
Al
