Lee, if you're only out one-way shipping, consider yourself lucky and move on. I bought a Fender Twin Silverface on eBay about 5 yrs. ago and it cost me more to get it working as described in the auction than I paid for the amp AND this was after talking on the phone with the seller AND getting about $275 back from an eBay fraud complaint. Remember, eBay has Lloyd's of London to insure against fraud and there's something like a $200 deductible. So unless you're out big money, you're gonna eat it. I left neg. feedback and won my fraud complaint. But that didn't make much of a dent in the bill for new tubes, rebiasing, new speakers, etc.
