Slimy seller! Purchased parts and seller shipped different parts than what was listed. I shipped the products back for an exchange and was refunded instead. After reaching out to see if I could purchase the actual items I had tried buying, the seller re listed them and raised the price. Some people have no sense of decency I guess. Then lo and behold this absolutely baffling “package” arrives. Items were bent but thankfully still functional. Watch out!
