Well , it took a little over a month but I finally got my money back from the bastard that tried to screw me over on a tranny I bought off of E-bay .

PAYPAL came through in the end and did an excellent job . They got me a full refund on my purchase price . I lost $50 on shipping but I'll take that .
I had to jump through a few hoops to get it all done but for $345 bucks it was worth it . I took the tranny down to a local tranny shop and explained to them my situation , they were very cool and wrote me up a nice invoice as what the tranny was , what it came out of and how it was not even close to matching the description in his auction , they even found a few defects and listed those , I faxed it over to Paypal and it really helped my case .
I had to ship the tranny back to the seller and a stipulation was it had to be shipped back in the same condition I recieved it , well it was actually better because DHL wouldnt take it the way he sent it to me , so I had to pressure wash it and plug all the holes where anything could leak from , when he got it the bastard tried to say I opened up the case and took some gears out , PAYPAL saw right through that little scam and made him pay up anyway .
needless to say I'm very happy with the outcome . Maybe a blessing in disguise because I ended up getting a T-5z and not risk buying anymore used trannys . and I got $345 bucks to spend on more mods!!
