G'day P38arover

Hey Ron! I would pack that up in the carton and return it for credit, the same as the previous purchaser did AFTER he put the PHILIPSHEAD SCREWDRIVER through it I have seen that trick done before, usually from dealers, after an apprentice has damaged it, would come back as "No longer required, customer decided not to repair" so I would advise you to return said article to place of purchase

cheers

Not in this case. It was a 'virgin' box when it left here.
With Ron's luck though, nothing remains a virgin for long as he seems to **** everything he touches.
.

I removed the 2nd new one from the box & had a good look at it before sending it to Ron. Hopefully he'll be sorted soon but it's not helping Ron when this happens.

Hey Ron
I had a "Ronald" moment today.
Back before Xmas I bought 2 Narva trailer plugs both sealed in their packets.
Fitted one to Debs trailer to match our 7 pin vehicles back in December without problem.
Today I went to fit the other to my new trailer Ive been building.
2 of the screws that hold the wires were missing and the grub screw and brass fitting it screws into were missing
Easy I thought,will pinch the missing bits off 1 of the 5 old plugs/sockets I kept for a rainy day instead of throwing out.WRONG,the threads dont match!!!!
Just made it into the rural supplies shop as they shut the doors for a replacement.
Ron please dont share that Karma around
Andrew

Good stuff, Andrew. That saves me buying it!

Like a good friend, I always share.

I'm glad you made it to the shop in time.

I think it already has, I bought a filter housing the other day for a spray unit and I got it back, fitted it and found it had a crack in the seam so I had to use the old housing and use all the new stuff off the new one to get it going meaning I cant just send it back Grrrrrrrr.

So Ron I blame you

I didn't buy the winch, my son won it - so it should be safe.
