UPS packaged this heater box that I won on eBay. Not sure if they're going to give me a refund or what's going to happen but can it be repaired? It was in perfect condition when it was sent. :'( :pullinghair:
Nevermind I'm just going to go ahead and try to repair it as they are too expensive to try to find again on eBay for a good deal.
I have no idea how UPS does returns but I do know an excellent fiberglass expert. Hopefully they can give me some money as the guys going to probably charge me 100 bucks
Sorry to hear this happened.
It's happened to SoundControl and myself as well.
When you ship stuff like this, you have to make it Gorilla proof.
That one looks like it was tossed from the truck as they drove by. :headbang: As hard as they are to find, if me, I would look for another one. The amount of broken areas may be a little much on saving it. :alan2cents:
I seen some repoped pieces ...
for standard heater...looks like just the side you see

If it were me, I'd be looking at that repop seriously as the one you've got now is a mess and if the guy can/will fix it for $100, he's screwing himself since it'll take days to try it and then there's no guarantees either. Your car, your call. :cheers:
That's a big bummer. :steamingmad: Nobody wins in these situations. :'( Was it packaged well? Have you contacted the seller to get his thoughts on it?
That box looks pretty fubar'd pretty bad. I think I would be looking for another one or get the repopped case and transfer what you need.
I would turn it in to UPS for damage since the store packaged it. It would at least pay for repairs. I have a few laying around. LMK if you want one. I would disassemble and ship core and condenser separate to keep weight down. Mike
Edit I only have a/c boxes. Sorry
if the UPS store packaged it, then they are liable for the damage (item cost + shipping costs). this is one way UPS uses to get out of liability is blaming the sender on self-packaging that was inadequate, they can't say this if UPS itself did it. it generally takes 4-6 weeks to see a refund, sometimes longer. file a claim ASAP.
Yes, mine was crushed also, I am going to try to fix it at least before I order the new case. I got money back from the seller and kept the broken one, I was happy with that. I ordered some special glue (Eastwood have it also) and I'm still waiting for it.
Yes UPS packaged the heater.
I'll stop by today and see what they say. Can I keep the box or do I have to surrender it?
Thanks
Get your money back for sure. :yes:
If you get all your money back, who cares if you have to surrender it ? It's junk :alan2cents:
Your seeing what I'm seeing... :dunno: appears to just be what I'll call the front side..
Y1 & Dante's both have the same item they refer to it as "E-Body Heater Core Housing"
