After a lot of going round and round the orphan shock was found in area where items that drop out of packaging end up. Kinda like the lost and found at the airport when they lose your luggage. Someone had to knock the siht out of the box to have one shock torpedo out.

Even though it worked out finally in 3 weeks or so, it was too much trouble handling the pissed off customer and the shipper. Might have been FedEx, IDR.

I don't miss messing around with used parts, for sure.
