cam damage

Just bought a used ls6 can and opened up the box to find some scary pitting. Will it be OK? Because I dropped some money expecting to be getting a usable cam

That lobe either chewed a lifter up or it got dropped on concrete...

Get your money back, did you know beforehand it had damage?

Refund! Hope you used paypal and/or the seller is cool about it (which I'm guessing he isn't bc I would never sell someone that for over $5)

It's sad that some ahole would even sell that cam. Unless they claim it was damaged during shipping.

If it happend during shipping, you can get your money back and so can the shipper if he paid for insurance.. I always do, it's only a few bucks extra..

I sold a ls6 cam awhile back that showed up slightly damaged... I refunded him and filed a USPS claim and got refunded as well..

As long as you didn't Paypal as a gift, your fine

It will make a good lamp stand, but nothing else.

That is a piece of junk. The seller knows it is junk too. When he sold it to you like that he knew it was junk what a scumbag. Good luck on getting your money back. That was a scam from the get go.
